Accrington Stanley: Club Profile
Accy are one of those sides who came up to the Conference after us and went into the Football League before us; promoted in 2003 and then again in 2006. To be fair, they’re not the only ones. On the flip side, we made them stay in League Two in 2011 with our playoff win. And then we denied them automatic promotion to League One in 2016. Oops.

Ground Information
Away Supporters' Stand:
Coppice Terrace
Facilities for Disabled Fans:
Individuals who receive the medium or higher rate of Disability Living Allowance qualify for a ticket charged at the concessionary rate, with personal assistants are required to pay a student rate.
Facilities for away supporters include 10 wheelchair spaces in the Jack Barrett Stand, though you'll note that this is not with the rest of the travelling contingent. Supporters must contact the club before arriving to book a place in this area of the ground.
Pre-Match Pintage:
There's little reason to venture further than The Crown, which is sited on Whalley Road and is literally behind the ground. If you feel inclined to go that extra bit further, however, you will find The Greyhound (a Sam Smith's pub) in the direction of the motorway.
Travel Information – Distance: 210 miles
By Road:
The Crown Ground is situated on the A680, just off the M65 around Manchester. There are two ways off approaching it, so you may wish to check up on roadworks nearer the time to decide which route is best.
You can either head up the M6 to J29 and join the M65, or head all the way up the M1 to the M62 and head East towards Manchester. At Junction 18 head up the M66, which then becomes the A56 and leads up to the M65 at J8.
Turn off the M65 at J7 and take the exit North (Clayton-Le-Moors). Turn right at the first set of traffic lights opposite Clayton Business Park, following the A678. Follow the road over the canal bridge to the next set of lights.
Turn right again going over the motorway bridge and towards Accrington on the A680. After approximately half a mile turn left down Livingstone Road, which is 50 yards past the Crown Hotel on the left.

By Rail:
Station: ACCRINGTON
Services to: LEEDS (for STEVENAGE, LONDON KINGS CROSS)
From the station the ground is about a 20 minute walk, but beware that most of it is uphill! Turn right out of the station (North side) and follow the viaduct staying on the left hand side. Carry on up the hill to the left before taking the main road which crosses it once over the hill. About a mile up on the right hand side is the ground.
