Dave McNabb Appointed Men’s First Team Manager

Bury Football Club is delighted to confirm the appointment of Dave McNabb as men’s first team manager.
 
He is joined at Gigg Lane by his assisant Tim Lees and they arrive after a six-month stint at Northern Premier League (NPL) side, Bootle.

An extensive list of candidates was generated following the request for applications last week, with Dave and his team being chosen from a strong shortlist interviewed for the position. As a ‘born winner’, with an objective to play progressive and attractive football, he was the obvious choice to take the club forward into the next stage as we look to move up through the National League System.

Football board chair, Marcel De Matas, told buryfc.co.uk how delighted he was to get a new manager in place quickly to build on the momentum of the recent two victories:
    We also caught up with McNabb following the announcement, who was keen to stress how excited he was to be moving to Gigg Lane:
    We will have more from Dave in his first interview as manager on Tuesday morning, available on our YouTube channel. Click to subscribe so you never miss a thing, HERE.

The new management team will be in charge for the first time this Tuesday, when we take on FC Isle of Man at Gigg Lane. Get your tickets to give Dave and his staff your biggest Gigg Lane welcome HERE.

Welcome to Bury, David, and Up the Shakers!

Match Info: Colne (H), Sat 23rd Sept, 3pm KO

A win for interim managers, Leon Mike and Stephen Sheil, on Tuesday night was welcome relief after a turbulent start to the week which saw Andy Welsh and management team leave the club following the loss to Lower Breck last Saturday.

The management duo were keen to stress the importance of the senior players in the group who stepped up to help with preparations for the win on the Fylde coast, you can hear their interview after the game below.

One of those senior players put his words into action when we took the lead just after half-time on Tuesday. Chris Rowney struck a low shot from the edge of the box which pressed home the dominance that had been shown up to that point by a determined and organised Bury side who grabbed a first clean sheet in 15 competitive games. Connor Comber grabbed an opportune goal 20 minutes later when Gate keeper, Nathan Pennington spilled a swirling cross in the 6-yard box and Comber was on hand to stab the ball home for his third of the season.

Comber also grabbed the player of the match award from the hosts, following a sharp display which also saw the winger smash a first half free-kick against the upright which would no doubt have been a goal of the season contender.

This weekend’s visitors are new to the Premier Division following relegation from the NPL last term. This fixture was originally due to be played in February but with a free weekend for both sides as neither are in FA Vase action yet, the game was brought forward. This will mean we will have completed our games against the Lancashire-based outfit, after we took all three points in the reverse fixture in the first week of the season.

Goals from Andy Briggs, Darius Palma and Benito Lowe put us three-up at half-time before the home side grabbed a well-taken consolation goal. Highlights are available below.
    Benito Lowe sits out his final game of his delayed three-match suspension, he will be back and available for Tuesday’s visit of FC Isle of Man.

    In Opposition – Colne
Colne FC were formed in January 1996, and moved into the vacant Holt House Stadium, once used by Colne Dynamoes.
 
The Red Army struggled until the 2003/04 season, when they finished top of the NWCFL Division 2 – 10 points clear of second place and scoring 102 goals. They also made it to the semi–finals of the FA Vase, defeating AFC Wimbledon along the way.
 
Season 2015–16 saw Colne win the NWCFL Premier Division title, securing 100 points and scoring over 100 goals. They also reached the final of the League Cup. The next few years saw success in the Northern Premier Leagues and various cup competitions, until they were relegated last season.

So far this term, they have won five, drawn 2 and lost five from the opening 12 league games. They are without a win in three, but that victory was against current league leaders, Kendal Town which they won 2-0.

For more information on Colne, head to their NWCFL page HERE.
