This season we have a double Looking Back Feature going back to 1993 when Neil Johnson was professional and also to 2013 when the club won the Lancashire League title for the last time.

The great start to the 1993 season continued with successive wins over Colne on May 1st and East Lancs on May 2nd.

Accrington notched their 1,000th Lancashire League win after beating Todmorden by 5 wickets at Centre Vale to go 10 points clear at the top of the table in 2013 on Sunday April 28th.
