We’d like to place on record our thanks to Macauley Wilson, who has departed the club today by mutual consent. Macauley joined us from Bamber Bridge in the summer, with a wealth of experience. He made nine competitive appearances for the club, scoring once against AFC Liverpool. Living in the Blackpool area, he was travelling a distance to commute for training & matches and has car shared with fellow players who live in the area but given recent injuries to those players, it’s foun

Bring it on! That’s the spirit in the camp as the Shakers face the long journey to the North East tomorrow to face Blyth Spartans in the FA Cup.   Yes, they’re a club with a great history and in a higher league. But we have already seen off three teams from a higher division in earlier rounds and have nothing to fear.   And another Yes – we struggled against Isle of Man last weekend. But that last kick draw with two of our players in the sin bin boosted morale on and off the pitch.

We’d like to provide an update on our Legends Wall.   First of all, we’d like to thank all fans who sponsored a player from down the years.    We’re currently working with our Heritage Committee to create the 15 history panels that will be interjected into the player panels, matching the relevant players to the correct era.    Once designed we will publish each history panel and open these up for sponsorship.    We’re hoping to launch the Legends Wall at our first hom

Dave McNabb’s 50th game in charge of the Shakers came with late drama at the weekend, with a 1-1 draw away at FC Isle of Man. Ben Hockenhull equalised in the sixth minute of stoppage time, after Sean Doyle opened the scoring for the Ravens 11 minutes into the second half. The fans were in fine voice in the Manx’s capital, after hundreds made the trip across the Irish Sea for the second time this calendar year. Luckily with no delays this time!

Our women’s first team heads to Ellesmere Port Sports Village on Sunday, as we face Tranmere Rovers Women in our reverse fixture. The match comes following three consecutive home games at Gigg Lane. After a 5-1 loss against Mancunian Unity on 1st September, the Shakers will be looking to return to previous form following a four match unbeaten run. Tranmere currently sit ninth in the table, four below Bury’s fifth place. Out of four games played so far, Tranmere have experien

A clinical second half showing by Mancunian Unity hands Bury their first defeat of the season. The first part of the game saw the two teams share even amounts of possession, with chances from outside of the box at either end being the only form of attempted goal scoring. Shortly after the 30-minute mark, Mitchell crossed the ball into the box from the left-hand side which hit the hand of Rachel Blythe, the referee then awarded Mancunian Unity a penalty for a handball. Payton stepped up to t
