24 Teams Announced For The North West Counties Football League Premier Division

2023-24 NWCFL Premier Division Gigg Lane will once again feel the beat of competitive men’s football from the start of next season and the FA have today announced the 24 teams who are expected to compete in the North West Counties Football League Premier Division in 2023/24.
Relegated from Step 4, we have Ramsbottom United, Colne, and Glossop North End, as well as Skelmersdale United who have been demoted due to not meeting ground regulations in the Northern Premier League.
Burscough have been reprieved at Step 5 following a 21st-placed finish last season, and Winsford United, Congleton Town and Northwich Victoria have been moved sideways to the Midland League. Supporters will be glad that FC Isle of Man remain a fixture within the NWCFL next season.
Coming up from Step 6, we have champions of their respective north and south leagues, Pilkington and Wythenshawe Amateurs, as well as play-off winners Chadderton and Cheadle Town.
Any appeals from clubs will be due to be heard ahead of the league AGM in June. Following this meeting, the final allocations will be confirmed and the start date of the season will be set. This is provisionally set as Saturday 29th July at this point.
The application for the name change to ‘Bury Football Club’ is due to be made in the coming weeks. This process can commence following a successful ratification vote, due to be announced this Friday (19th).
The numbers for the league have been confirmed and we are working towards making season tickets available over the forthcoming weeks. Please bear with us as we know there is plenty of demand to meet.

Jake Williams Departs

The club is sad to announce the departure of Bury AFC Women first team manager Jake Williams.
Jake joined us shortly after the team was first established in April 2021. In that time he has been instrumental in guiding the team to great honours and achievements, most notably back to back league championships and subsequent promotions. Furthermore, in those 2 seasons, the team only lost 1 league game. They also reached several cup semi finals and an impressive 3rd qualifying round of the Women’s FA Cup.
Jake leaves the club with our sincere gratitude and he will be sadly missed by all. We would like to thank him for his relentless hard work and commitment and we wish him all the best for the future, in all that he does.
Steven Mainwaring, Jake’s Assistant Manager has now been appointed as Manager and will start to plan for next season with the rest of the staff. We will soon be releasing details of retained players for the 23/24 season and expect to recruit well in the upcoming trials.

It Gets Me Home, This Curving Track

The amalgamation vote has been overwhelmingly approved by both societies and we will return to Gigg Lane next season. You can view the results here.
It never seems like it at the time, but the more painful route is often the more valuable.
Over the last few months every idea and opportunity has been explored, all avenues walked down, all stones turned over. It’s led us back here, with no regrets and with no ifs or buts left to debate. We are left with the right decision as it was the only decision. The arguments are no longer exhausting, they are exhausted. Thank god for that.
Modern life constantly asks us to make choices. Between one thing or another, this idea or that. Sometimes the answer is both. We don’t need to choose one and abandon the other. This was one of those moments.
This vote preserves the old and the new, history, present and future, nothing and nobody is lost or left behind. It was never a choice between one thing or another.
Voting yes means voting for both. It means everything. It means all of us. It will take all of us to make the future work, so it was the only way to set us off on the right track.
A more direct route would have been easier but we would have learned less along the way. We now know more. We know how to play an active role in our football club. Our sense of agency has never been stronger. All this makes us better prepared. And the curving track still got us home.
Thank you to everyone who voted and thank you to all the people who kept us going during some difficult times. We look forward to seeing you all at Gigg Lane for the start of the new season.
From the Shakers Community Board

Bury FC Supporters Society Resolution Passed

Bury Football Club Supporters Society would like to thank all fans who voted on the future of your club. A fan owned club is nothing without its loyal fans, you are all valued and have a part to play.
Under Section 111 of the Co-operative and Community Benefit Societies Act 2014 this resolution must be passed by not less than two thirds of those members present and voting at the meeting (whether in person or by proxy), and must be confirmed by a further Special Resolution at a second general meeting.
Votes in favour are 952 (90.1%) and votes against the resolution are 105 (9.9%)
During the SGM and the voting process the independent company Mi Voice have ensured compliance, counted, ratified all eligible votes and verified the result.
The outcome of the vote is that the required threshold of 66.6% has been achieved, the resolution has therefore passed.
What we are building today, is for those who will look back, be proud of the work we as volunteers have put into establishing this club as a shining example of a sustainable fan owned football club.
We would ask every person to now look to themselves as to how best you can support Bury Football Club. The future of your club is in your hands, join us, become members and be a part of the future.
Do not walk away, come back to be part of the future of Bury FC, we are the Shakers.
