This home cup-tie provides us with a double benefit: we can give Under-23s players game time and have an extra training session before the tough fixture against high-flying Lower Breck on Saturday.   It also gives fans a chance to get along to Gigg Lane to recall and celebrate our outstanding performance of the season. The stunning 8-0 home win against Longridge gave morale a massive boost right across the club.   And there will now be no NWCFL game at Gigg Lane until we entertain

It wouldn’t be surprising if Longridge Town come to Gigg Lane fired up with determination to take revenge for the 5-1 defeat we inflicted on them last month, when they visit Gigg Lane this weekend.   It was a score that perhaps flattered the Shakers back in October, conceding three penalties in the game but after overcoming that storm and Mitch Allen saving two of the penalties, the result was empthatic in the end. Tuesday night’s 1-1 draw against Charnock Richard proved that we won’

Next up the Shakers host Curzon Ashton in the reverse fixture, following a successful feat for Ashton at their home ground last week. Following a valiant comeback, the Shakers couldn’t quite match Curzon’s three goals, with the score ending 3-2 to the home team. Curzon Ashton currently sit in third place in the Premier Division of the North West Women’s Regional Football League, six positions above Bury. Before last week, the two teams previously came head to head in Septem

After two goals in either half from DJ Pedro against AFC Liverpool this afternoon, Tim Lees reflected on the game.   “A turbulent week, turbulent few days with everything that’s gone on.  Our job as staff and as players is just to focus on the pitch and that started on Thursday with us, so there was no talk of anything outside of the club. It was purely football, how we’re going to get better, how we’re going to keep improving and I thought the lads were excellent, particularly first hal

The Shakers go into this game against Charnock Richard lying second in the league. That’s largely thanks to four goals in four games from loanee DJ Pedro – and the fact that the top two were playing in the Isuzu FA Vase at the weekend. We beat Charnock Richard 2-0 on their own ground barely three weeks ago, and this game is the second in a run of three against sides we have faced in the reverse fixture already, with Longridge the visitors to Gigg this Saturday. DJ made his debut four days l
