As a fan for 35+ years I remember the bad days and this season has been our greatest ever season - we are traditionally a bottom half of the 2nd tier division with very low crowds and thanks to Ronnie & Les we are punching above our weight. We might still finish top 6 and that would be beyond our wildest dreams. Thanks to Ronnie & Les we have the best youth set up in Scotland and we can now sell players in the £1m + bracket.

Anyone who grudges a player a big move is not a true Accies fan. Anyone who thinks we should be spending money on signings is not a good businessman. Accies are a business whose remit is to bring through young players to sell. If we didn't sell players then they would never sign for our youth teams. Thanks to the board we have a terrifically run and successful business that has also given us a top 6 team when our expectations were fighting relegation. We will never win the league or get into Europe so fans need to keep their heads out of the clouds. Just remember its not so long ago we were in the 3rd division. That is how far we have come. Remember we have avoided relegation this season. That was our aim.

We need to keep the faith and trust, and get behind the club. Get behind Canzo and the rest of the team!

Accies Til We Die!

Your reading comprehension is very poor.

I'll make it clear for you; I am not an Accies director, related to anyone at Accies, I have nothing to do with Accies or the company who runs the stadium. I am on THIS MESSAGE BOARD same as you. That is the only board I am a member of. Get it?

He is sadly very serious. If I am a "happy clapper" what does that make the people who go to the opposite extremes thinking the club is always in the shitter?
I know; we can call them 'The Kwik Fit Fitters'!

Dearie dearie me, what on earth does that have to go with anything ? This is an Accies forum, not a forum for your political agenda.

I think pot-kettle-black are three words that spring to mind. I used to frequent this forum, but self-righteous nonsense like the first comment is the main reason I don't any more.

Why do certain people try to bring politics and religion onto a football forum.
This should be about Accies and football in general.

For the record I voted Yes, but the referendum settled that issue, and we should get over any differences we have.
Why try to insult people by raking it up again.

Let's get back to discussing football.

We are all behind the club.
That doesn't mean you blindly agree to whatever is served up.

Accies are a very well run club and that's something we must all be immensely proud of and thankful that we are.

We all want the very best for the team and the club and realise that in terms of the SPL we are a "wee" team.
But that doesn't stop you aspiring to bigger and better.

When things go well we praise them, when things go wrong we criticise and/or give our opinions on how to improve.
That's human nature and how it should be.
