Accrington Stanley

Post by ClaretsPadiham » Sun May 12, 2024 12:15 am

After Crawley won the league 2 play off semi final today to appear at Wembley, it will leave Accy as the only team in the current 92 to have never played at Wembley, astonishing stat really.

One more stat that proves the devaluing of the prestige of getting to Wembley.

There’s another list of teams that have never played at the new Wembley. It was 6 teams and now will be 5. Blackburn are one of the five!

Spot on. They even had a vase final warm up before yesterdays vase final. It almost seems like if you’ve ever laced on boots a Wembley appearance is guaranteed. All to pay for the rebuild.
