New Signing: Jacob Holland-Wilkinson

Bury Football Club are delighted to confirm the signing of Jacob Holland-Wilkinson from Lancaster City, subject to league approval.
  Jacob Holland-Wilkinson joins the Shakers Manager Dave McNabb swooped in to bring the talented attacking midfielder to Gigg Lane to bolster the engine room as we head into the business end of the season.

Bury-born Jacob, 21, is a Preston North End academy graduate, leaving Deepdale after reserve team appearances for the Lilywhites and in search of first team football. That search resulted in a move to Stoke City in 2022.

Appearences for the Under-21 side followed, as well as two loan stints with the Dolly Blues where he racked up a total of 10 appearances and two goals. Following release from Stoke, Lancaster signed him up permenantly in the summer of 2023.

So far this term, Jacob has scored three goals in 21 appearances in the Northern Premier League.

Manager Dave McNabb states Holland-Wilkinson offers another attacking midfield option:
 

Jacob is expected to be involved in the matchday squad for Saturday’s trip to Cheadle Town. Tickets can be purchased here.

Welcome to Bury, Jacob!

NWCFL Premier Division Player of the Month: Declan Daniels

We are delighted to announce that Declan Daniels has been named NWCFL Premier Division Player of the Month for Decemeber 2023.

Following his move from Irlam in early December, the striker has won Man of the Match from the opponents in each game, scoring three goals in the process, making him the easy choice for the league award last month.

His form has continued into 2024 so far also, taking his tally to six goals in total, as well as adding a further Man of the Match award against his old club the first game of 2024 – bagging a penalty in the process.

This is our second league recognised award of the season, after Harry Wright’s goalkeeper award in October. Well done Dec, keep it up!
You can relive Dec’s first goal for the club on his debut, away at Longridge Town, below:

GAME OFF: Wythenshawe (H)

Following an early pitch inspection, tonight’s fixture at home to Wythenshawe has been postponed due to a frozen pitch.

Temperatures dropped over the weekend and with little change due over today, plus the snow covering in Bury overnight an early review of the pitch was arranged this morning with the match referee.

A new date will be confirmed in due course, and tickets will be valid for the rearranged fixture.

Club Statement: Update

We can confirm that the FA have agreed to a stay of the sanction requiring us to close Gigg Lane to supporters whilst the appeal is heard.

There will be no sanctions until the appeal process concludes. This means that our game against Wythenshawe will be open for supporters of both sides to attend.

We are, however, mindful of the weather and potential for a postponement due to a frozen pitch so continue to advise supporters not to purchase tickets in advance at this stage purely for that reason.

Club Statement

Bury Football Club has been informed by Manchester FA that an independent committee has decided that due to the offensive comments made by two supporters during our game against West Didsbury and Chorlton in September, we should be forced to play our next two home games behind closed doors.

We reported the incident at the time, and provided video and other evidence to the police to assist their enquiries at some considerable cost to the club. We have not disputed the claims made. The individuals have not yet had their case heard by the law enforcement authorities and have been prevented from entering the stadium indefinitely whilst we await the outcome.

Our grounds for appeal are limited. We have accepted the facts of the incident, and do not believe that we acted in a way which was anything other than responsible and measured. We accept that the two individuals involved could have been removed from the stadium immediately but the stewards took a view at the time to stop any further problems and review the situation afterwards. We paid additional money to a CCTV specialist to review footage and provided this to the police. Our stewarding costs are £3-4,000 per game, it is not something we take lightly.

The basis of our appeal is that the punishment is excessive. We have seen multiple incidents over recent years of groups of supporters collectively issuing racist, misogynistic and homophobic abuse, as well as tragedy chanting. These have gone unpunished or have been dealt with by fines. We acted on the day. We are unable to completely control the words of two people in a crowd of 3,838 on that particular occasion.

We accept there should be a punishment, but excluding every well-behaved football supporter from a stadium which has already excluded those who perpetrated the offences, does nothing to promote inclusion.

The loss of revenue is extremely damaging and our belief is that it would be far better to use that revenue to fund a campaign intended to positively promote diversity and inclusion. Football needs to change, this would help make that change.

A stadium closure throws this opportunity away and is likely to ignite a more divisive and polarised debate on these important issues.

We have taken huge strides to actively promote diversity and inclusion since forming the club and have raised money and awareness throughout the borough through the hard work of our volunteers, many of whom will be deeply dismayed by this judgement as it punishes them despite their efforts.

For this reason we intend to appeal. It is not because we are in any way dismissive of the issues involved. The appeal process will take a number of weeks and we will continue to play in front of supporters during this period, and we will keep supporters updated as to any progress made as it happens.

We are also concerned that this specific judgment has been published publicly whilst matters are still being considered by the relevant law enforcement authorities.
