About Accrington

Today's Accrington Stanley is the second club to carry the name. The first, founded in 1891, played in the Football League from 1921 until debts forced it to resign in March 1962, and it folded four years later. A meeting at the Bold Street Working Men's Club revived the name in 1968, and the new club began playing at the Crown Ground in the Lancashire Combination in 1970.

Under manager John Coleman the club climbed through non-league football, winning the Northern Premier League in 2003 and the Conference in 2006 to bring league football back to the town after 44 years. They won League Two in 2017–18 and spent five seasons in League One. A late-1980s milk advert's line, 'Accrington Stanley, who are they?', made the name widely known, and Rochdale and Morecambe are among their rivals.

Founded: 1968
Ground: Wham Stadium
Capacity: 5,450
Nickname: The Reds
