Oddity edit

Moorhead was the home of Accrington Stanley FC not Accrington FC and didn’t open until 1919 (as peel park) Tenants are listed as Accrington until 1896 which is when Accrington folded. I suggest editing the commentary to remove the reference to Accrington fc’s move to Moorhead. No evidence it happened. 2A02:C7C:56B8:F800:DDB4:D855:C05A:6E54 (talk) 13:31, 30 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

Additionally to this, it’s clear the side playing at Moorhead park were Stanley Villa FC later to become Accrington Stanley FC. I will update the page to correct the error.
