Accrington v Leeds

[Maurice Swan]

Hope this is a decent contest. I have always loved their name Accrington STANLEY......and a soft spot for them. Proper old fashioned stadium..capacity 5450!!! Cannot see anything other than a Leeds win but you never know. Accrington have never been in the 5th round if they win.

Re: Accrington v Leeds

A team called Stanley Villa already existed at the time, named as such because they were based at the Stanley W.M.C. on Stanley Street in Accrington. With the demise of Accrington, Stanley Villa took the town name to become Accrington Stanley.

There are (I think) 21 different endings to team names in the top 4 divisions, like Stanley and City. How many can you think of without looking them up?
