Bury won 2-0 over Pilkington as they continue their push towards the NWCFL title, Manager Dave McNabb spoke to the club to give us his thoughts on the game. Dave McNabb: “I thought the first half was horrendous, if I’m being honest. No patterns of play, we looked nervous, we looked like we didn’t want to get on the ball and be brave with it. That being said, we missed three edge chances, we hit the bar with a bit of a lucky overhead kick from Bobby [Carroll]. We could have been 3-0 up, but we

After 10 successive wins, it’s getting harder by the week for us to keep our feet on the ground. But we take nothing for granted as we head for Pilkington backed by what we hope will be 1,000 noisy Shakers fans. Lower Breck kept up the pressure at the top by winning 3-1 at lowly Colne on Tuesday night. They’ve now played the same number of games and are just three points behind. Our margin of victory at Pilkington’s neighbours FC St Helens last weekend was as slim as it can be. But that was

Bury won 1-0 this afternoon away at FC St Helens, Defender Aaron Chalmers spoke to the club to give us his thoughts on the game. Aaron Chalmers: “Yeah, very tough. The pitch didn’t help us at all, to be fair. You can’t really play football on that pitch. But this time of the season, it’s not about the performances, it’s more about just the results. We’ve come away with 1-0, the Keep have made three or four top-class saves, to be fair. So, could have been more, should have been, but 1-0 will ta

Dave McNabb: “I think overall, over the moon really, I think a really tough game, really challenging conditions, the pitch was tough in terms of the dry weather and the bobbles, wasn’t conducive to playing any type of football on, but you go through a season and you’ve got to come up against different challenges and different adversity and I think t
