We are delighted to confirm the signing of centre-back Aaron Chalmers, who joins us from Stalybridge Celtic, subject to NWCFL approval.   The 33-year-old, came through the ranks at Oldham Athletic, making it through to the first team to make two appearances.   After spells at Macclesfield Town and Hibernian, he dropped down the leagues to join Mossley in 2010, where he made 44 appearances and scored once.

The new deal also gives us an extension to our current agreement to kit out our men’s & women’s first team and men’s U23s each year. Football Board Memb

We welcome Colne to Gigg Lane determined to bounce back from our disappointing start to a month which may well prove vital in our bid for promotion.   That 3-1 defeat at Litherland REMYCA was hard to take, but hey! – football’s always about a new start with the next match.   We beat Colne 2-0 at their place at the end of October, with second-half goals from Ben Hockenhull and Connor Pye. Since then, we’ve won two and lost two and Colne have won two, drawn one and lost one.

Objective achieved! We prepared for this game by bouncing back in style from the defeat at Lower Breck by beating Burscough 4-2 away. The first 45 minutes were probably the best we’ve played all season, even counting the stunning 8-0 defeat of Longridge Town. So we travel once again to Merseyside with heads held high.   But it was disappointing to present Burscough with a gift goal early in the second half, and after that it was a struggle. Quality told in the end, and overall it was anot

Last week we had the pleasure of hosting two football clubs from Chicago on behalf of FTI Sports Ltd – Lindenhurst Area Soccer Club and Chicago KICS Youth Soccer Club. Hiring Gigg Lane for training sessions, the children loved playing on the pitch and watching from the stands the parents loved hearing the story of Bury’s return to football.   Following the session they flooded into the club shop to buy memorabilia of their trip from football tops and hoodies to pin badges and an a

We are delighted to announce the signing of midfielder Nicky Adams from Radcliffe, and with it Nicky starts a fourth spell at Gigg Lane. The 38-year-old began his footballing career with the Shakers, after coming through the club’s youth setup in the early 2000s. He made his first team debut in October 2005 in a 1-0 win against Darlington, in what was a debut not only for him but the first game in charge for the then manager, Chris Casper. Nicky scored the only goal of the game, w

Our trip to Burscough this afternoon will see the final appearance of Lewis Alessandra, as he confirms his retirement from football.    Lewis has decided to call time on his 17-year playing career, due to recurring injuries & work commitments.   The 35-year-old started out at grassroots side Roach Dynamos before heading to Oldham. He went onto play in the football league for Morecambe, Plymouth Argyle, Rochdale, Hartlepool, Notts County, Morecambe & Carlisle Un
