Following the war, the club joined the Bolton Combination, winning it ten times between 1919 and 1965.
Due to league reorganisation in 2018, the Colls were placed into Division one west, winning the title that season.
In 2024, they were relegated to the Division One West, where they have remained since.

This decision has been agreed by all parties to protect the integrity of the competition, with two other clubs still in contention for the title.
Should Bury FC secure victory on Saturday, and results elsewhere confirm us as champions, the Northern Premier League will travel to Gigg Lane following the conclusion of all fixtures to present the trophy, with an estimated presentation time of 5:45pm.
Reminder to Supporters
We would like to take this opportunity to remind all supporters that entering the field of play and the use of pyrotechnics (such as flares and smoke bombs) are strictly prohibited. These actions are against ground regulations and the law, and can result in serious consequences for both individuals and the club.
In addition, it’s important to remember that Gigg Lane is home to a 3G playing surface. This pitch is a vital asset to both the club and the wider community, used by hundreds of players of all ages and abilities every week. Damage caused by pitch invasions or pyro can result in costly repairs and disruption to scheduled activity, including matches and training sessions. It is essential that we all take responsibility to protect this valuable asset.
Should we secure the league title, after any initial celebrations at the referee’s full-time whistle, the players will be presented with the trophy before beginning a lap of honour. Unfortunately, following a second pitch invasion after last season’s presentation, players were unable to carry out a lap of honour and celebrate with supporters. We kindly ask that, on this occasion, supporters remain off the field of play.
Thank you for your continued support.
Up the Shakers.

While this fixture is not all-ticket, we strongly recommend purchasing in advance if you wish to secure a place in a specific area of the ground. Availability in certain sections cannot be guaranteed on the day. At the time of writing (Thursday afternoon), the South Stand is sold out and fewer than 500 seats remain in the Main Stand.
Main Stand tickets will be available until midday on Saturday, or until sold out – whichever comes first. If we have remaining capacity, supporters will be able to pay on the day in the Main Stand.
Starkies will be open from 12:30pm, for Main Stand ticket holders only, this is to manage capacities.
As announced yesterday, the Cemetery End will be open for this fixture, with pay-on-the-day available in that area.
All turnstiles will open earlier than usual, at 1:00pm.
We encourage Witton Albion supporters to purchase tickets in advance to help us plan effectively for your visit. The away allocation will be in Block I of the Main Stand.
Please note that hospitality and sponsor packages are sold out. We are also expecting a large number of players’ friends and family in attendance. As a result, Blocks E and F in the Main Stand are strictly reserved for those with the appropriate tickets. Access to these areas will require a valid wristband, which will be checked.
Supporters must use tickets for the designated area they have purchased, in line with strict capacity regulations. Stewards and turnstile staff will be checking tickets, so please have yours ready before arrival to ensure smooth entry.
With a large crowd expected, we strongly advise supporters to arrive early to avoid queues and ensure easy access to the stadium.
Let’s get behind the lads and create an atmosphere worthy of the occasion.

The Shakers go into the game two points clear at the top after a 1-0 win over Nantwich town, with Avro FC hot in pursuit. With only two to play, Anthony Johnson’s side will know the importance of a win this weekend.
Last time the two sides faced, Witton condemned Bury to a 3-0 defeat in late November after a series of inconsistent performances.
In Opposition – Witton Albion
Witton Albion were founded in 1887, and have a long history of cup success.
They have won the Cheshire cup 11 times, and reached the FA Cup Second round on three occasions.
An inner city area in Birmingham, Witton had a bitter rivalry with Northwich Victoria, who they controversially shared a ground with in the 2015/16 season.
The side were promoted to the NPL West in the 2016/17 season, when they picked up close to 100 points and scored 100 goals to secure automatic promotion.
On the Day & In the Ground
Our Matchday @ Gigg guide is available to read to find out everything you need to know going on in and around the ground.
Tickets are still on sale via our ticketing page on our website. Pay on the gate will also be available.
There is no segregation for this fixture, but Witton supporters are asked to purchase their tickets here.
Starkies will be open at the normal time of 12.30pm for supporters to access from the Manchester Road End entrance before kick-off.

The session was delivered by John Oliver, A Licensed Coach and Coach Developer for Manchester FA, combining classroom-based learning with practical on-pitch sessions. The CPD is designed to enhance coaching standards across the club, helping our coaches deliver high-quality sessions for players of all ages and abilities.
Learning Together, Growing Together
The evening began with an interactive classroom session, where John guided coaches through essential coaching principles, session planning, communication and reflective practice. Coaches shared insights and explored ways to develop sessions tailored for players ranging from grassroots juniors to adult football participants.
The theory session was followed by a practical segment on the pitch, where coaches could see the concepts in action, try new drills and discuss how to adapt coaching techniques for different age groups and abilities.
Casey Lynchey, Head of Operations and Community, reflected on the session:
Bury FC coaches are looking forward to further Manchester FA CPD sessions and an exciting masterclass with Mike Phelan next month, continuing our commitment to developing coaching excellence across the club.
Limited places are available for coaches from other clubs at the masterclass. Secure your spot now and take your coaching to the next level.
