Thanks for the info. I remember Stanley 1 in the fifties aand sixties though only as a lower league club.

Saw he is playing with Donald Love. At some time there were expectations from him too, or at least to do better than league 2. Still a great name

No they weren’t. He was an average u21s player who the expectation would always be to play in League 1/2.

The only reason he played in the first team was because there were 7 other RB options out injured, not because anyone expected him to become good.
 
I thought I recognised that name. His dad started his career at United in the youth team and played a lot of games for Plymouth Argyle, which is the closest professional club to where I grew up.
 
Accrington’s first five games (without Aljofree): 0 wins, 2 draws, 3 defeats, 0 clean sheets.

Next seven with Sonny playing full minutes: 5 wins, 1 draw, 1 defeat, 4 clean sheets
 
Seems to be having a cracking loan season.
