The commanding centre-back adds further depth and experience to the Shakers’ defence. Standing at 6ft 4in, Tabone brings a strong physical presence, aerial ability and leadership qualities at the heart of the backline.
The 27-year-old boasts valuable experience at both club and international levels. He has represented the Maltese National Team, first receiving a call-up in March 2023 for UEFA European Championship qualifiers against North Macedonia and Italy, and making the matchday squad against North Macedonia. Tabone went on to make his senior international debut in June 2024, coming on as a second-half substitute against Greece.
Tabone began his football journey in the youth ranks of Nadur Youngsters on the island of Gozo in Malta, before spending time in the academy system at Burnley. He later returned to Nadur Youngsters in 2018, where he made his senior debut and continued his development.
In 2023, he moved to Haverfordwest County, playing his part in a historic campaign for the Welsh side. That season saw the club achieve their highest-ever points tally in a 12-team Cymru Premier, as well as secure qualification for the UEFA Conference League.
Luke joined Southport in June 2025, following his spell with Haverfordwest County, and has gone on to make eight appearances for the Sandgrounders.
He now links up with the Shakers on a short-term basis and will be looking to make an immediate impact during his time at Gigg Lane.
Everyone at the Club would like to welcome Luke to Bury FC and wish him the best during his loan spell.

The Shakers picked up a 2-1 victory last time out against Mossley, taking an early lead before being pegged back in an end-to-end first half. Chances came at both ends, with Shakers repeatedly going close. Persistence paid off late on as Gavin Massey’s close-range header sealed all three points.
Newcastle Town are without a win in five games, and come into this one off the back of a 5-0 defeat at the hands of Bootle.
In Opposition – Newcastle Town
Newcastle Town have played consistently at this level since the 2010/11 season, after their league title win in the North West Counties League and reached the playoff semi-finals in their debut season.
Across the last four seasons, they’ve finished between 14th & 16th. The club reached the semi-finals of the FA Vase in the 1999/2000 season.

The club will now take time to carefully assess all available options as part of a thorough process to appoint a permanent First Team Manager ahead of the 2026/27 season. This approach will allow the club to plan strategically for the future while maintaining focus on current objectives.
