Our next women’s first team match sees the Shakers host Salford City FC Lionesses Women, following Sunday afternoon’s loss against Wythenshawe. Salford currently sit in ninth place in the Premier Division of the North West Womens Regional League, one below Bury.

We need noisy fans in numbers to get behind the Shakers as they face Glossop North End in their 21st match of the season. Yes, we are indeed, still the mighty Shakers. Yes, we are unbeaten. And yes, we did beat North End 4-2 away three weeks ago.   But the 5-1 win at Longridge on Saturday flattered us. Without Mitch Allen’s heroics in saving two out of three penalties it might have been a very different story.   The 900 fans who made the journey up the M6 will have been delig

Our visit to Longridge Town for a league match is in no sense a case of “back to the old routine” for the unbeaten Shakers. It will be a tough game against opponents who had a good start to the season but now desperately need to prove a point.   Town are more than aware that Bury go into the game after that dramatic Emirates FA Cup win at Radcliffe last weekend and a good result in a demanding midweek encounter with Chadderton.   In such a situation, a come-down in a real danger.
