Bury FC News

It’s the day we’ve all been waiting for – men’s football returning to Gigg Lane for the first time in four years!   By the time Saturday comes around it will have been 1,547 days since Bury FC’s last competitive fixture at Gigg Lane – a 1-1 draw against Port Vale. Jordan Rossiter scored the last competitive goal that day, but who will score the next? Hopefully we’ll find out this weekend…   This match information pack is designed to offer you all the information you need ahead of w

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

There’s a great opportunity for the unbeaten Shakers to do some more FA Cup shaking when we meet Harborough Town from the Southern League Premier Division this Saturday at the final qualifying stage of this season’s Emirates FA Cup.   We’re the last Step Five team still in the tournament, and are up against a team from Step Three. But we beat Radcliffe from Step Two, and the prize this time is a place in the First Round Proper. So come on, you Shakers!   It would be understandable

Irlam it is this weekend and our last game of the season outside of the Borough of Bury. With six of the last nine games at Gigg Lane, and the other two away games at Prestwich and Ramsbottom, we head out onto the M60 and into Salford for the last time in the regular season. It is a 3pm kick-off at the RG3 Digitial Stadium this Saturday. Last weekend, we grabbed the win against a tough Lower Breck side on a difficult pitch. That said, late chances went begging for Player of the Month Andy S

We face yet another tough test with this visit to Irlam, but go into the game buoyed up by a stunning 4-0 performance against Colne.   It was a day on which our skill was backed up by grit and determination. Everyone – not least manager Dave McNabb – was embarrassed by the abysmal midweek performance against Litherland REMYCA. So we’re back on track for our vital December run of fixtures.   We were without suspended Ben Hockenhull, but were boosted by the last-minute signing of tou

This is it! Bury at last play on Gigg Lane’s amazing new 3G synthetic pitch at 3.00pm on Saturday. And that great old ground will be bouncing! Don’t miss it!!! Click here to get your tickets!! After seven successive away games, we look forward to a performance of high-calibre against visitors Irlam following a high-scoring start to the season. And fans will be hoping manager Dave McNabb’s line-up includes 19-year-old winger Alex Cherera, who scored a stunning hat-trick in the FA C

With the weather seemingly calming down since Tuesday’s game fell victim to days of endless rain, we shift our focus to this coming Saturday and the visit of Irlam FC. After going through the whole of December unbeaten in the North West Counties Premier League, Dave McNabb’s charges have eighteen games left in the hunt for the League title and promotion. With us currently sitting in second place, two points behind Wythenshawe who we have a game in on hand following Tuesday’s postponement.

Dave McNabb and his team will look to make it four wins on the bounce this weekend as we travel North into Cumbria to take on Kendal Town in a top-of-the-table clash. This will be our second meeting with The Mintcakes this season and The Shakers will be looking to avenge a 3-2 loss in the reverse fixture back in August, a game in which Andy Briggs bagged a brace. Briggs was back among the goals last weekend as were Connor Comber and Anton Smith as we put a good West Didsbury & Chor

After Saturday’s disappointment in the FA Cup, league action returns to Gigg Lane on Tuesday night as Kendal Town are the visitors for our first competitive game under the lights.   Charnock Richard were the victors at the weekend. Goals from Connor Comber and Jack Tinning gave Bury a two-nil lead, scoring at the beginning of each half. Injuries to both centre-backs, Niall Battersby and Jack Tinning, early in the second-half led to a defensive re-shuffle before Greens top-scorer Jordan Da
