Weekend Teams

This season's Looking Back Feature takes us back to 1992 when Dipak Patel was professional.

The final weekend of the season was a double header weekend beginning with a home defeat to Lowerhouse on Saturday September 12th.

The following day Accrington finished the season with a home win over Ramsbottom.

In an extra Look Back we also travel back 25 years to 1997 when Accrington A became the first Accrington team to win a double with a dramatic last ball win over Manchester Road.
