They've already had the season ticket money though, but that's an issue for a new thread if Bury are expelled.

Thanks to the Joy Hart's of this world, taking some action as the footballing world looks on and lets a 135 year old club go to the wall. All looks far too Bloody familiar to a lot of us.

They have a first team squad of eight players. Actually, I'm quite surprised they have that many by now.

Bolton manager has just resigned, both clubs looking at the brink. Just heartbreaking.

Not that it's down to them - premier League, could clubs/players on thousands per week help in any way?

It would be a nice gesture if Man U offered to come and play a friendly , just to help them out ... I can't see it happening though.
Too busy trying to compete with the other giants of Europe in Asia & the US. Days of glamour friendlies for football league clubs is a thing of the past.

Bury must not be kicked out of the league. Why should the fans and players suffer because of one man?

Steve, can I just ask. I'm just looking for a solution now. Is it not in the best interests if you step aside?
Do you own the land the ground sits on? Are you holding onto that for any reason? Are you hoping this club dies a death so you can sweep up and sell the land?
Where have we heard that before? If that doesn't tug some memories then you should check out our history and go and spit on the Goldstone Retail Park.
They must not die. Rather than kick them out there must be a way to evict the chairman. How about setting up a new club, Bury 2019, and moving all their staff to another temporary ground. Bad idea but better than just losing a club.

No hurry to set up a new club as they are too late for this season anyway. I'm sure it will be considered if they do go belly up.

They could play neighbours Bolton in a two-legged friendly, or as many as it takes to make both clubs solvent
If only it were that easy.
And give more money to the same chairman they want to get rid of?
Unfortunately given the mismanagement I can’t see how Bury get out of this. They got promoted with a team they couldn’t afford and are paying the price now.
They need to do what Carlton did and register the ground as an asset of the community. That means that he cant then sell it off to be developed without first offering it to the community to buy. It saved The Valley. Its a new law since the Goldstone.

So proud of our fans giving their support to Bury fans on this Facebook page.

We cannot let these teams be lost to history and something needs to be done from the FA to sort out this mess with teams like Bury and Bolton.

About 50 fans turn up to their ground for a demo, if they don't care why should anyone else

Because Bury FC represent more than just the current generation of supporters. Past and future generations are just as important.
The worthiness of their cause should not be judged on numbers at a demonstration.

Having been there seen it happen ,i wouldn't wish it on anyone . Sadly i see no way out for Bury . Here's to Bury 2019FC ,perhaps FCUM could help them with a groundshare after all Bury let them play at Gigg lane when they started.
