"CAN we play you every week" is surely the fans' favourite end-of-match terrace song to their opposing number, and the song rang out around the Fraser Eagle Stadium on Saturday as the Hereford team were sent home soundly beaten.

John Coleman said in his post-match interview that he liked playing Hereford as they always come to play football.

And he is right - they did try to play football, but unfortunately for them they came up against a stout Stanley defence and a fast flowing Stanley attack.

"God is everywhere!", cried one terrace wag, and he was of course referring to the defensive colossus that is Godwin Antwi.

The combination of Godwin and David Martin on loan from Liverpool seems to have given the whole team a huge lift, none more so than captain fantastic Peter Cavanagh, who scored another scorcher of a freekick to seal the Stanley victory.

I know what you are thinking he has got halfway through his column and not mentioned the star of the show!

Well, apart from one late challenge that deserved a yellow and not the red that it turned out to be, David Brown was fantastic. His return to the side and return to form was an instrumental part in Stanley securing their first back-to-back wins since September.

He tirelessly covered the whole pitch and fought for every ball. His day was capped with a thunderbolt strike that would still be motoring if it were not for the goal-netting at the Clayton End.

He is like a new signing and I hope that the Stanley officials are successful in their appeal against his sending-off.

As for the chance of a points deduction, it would be an incredibly cruel blow for a team on the up, and the new feeling of optimism in the town of Accrington.
