After our record-breaking 2024-25 season, it’s been a slow start to the new season and our dismissal from the FA Cup raises the stakes for FA Trophy.
Our players and coaching staff have gone flat out to make good use of the 11-day break from matches, so as the team walks out to face Wythy Town let’s blow them away with our support.
New signing Gavin Massey spoke to our media team ahead of the weekend and he hopes that he will be able to be able to use his extensive football league experience to galvanise the squad.
See you Saturday Shakers!
Be part of it. Be Loud and be proud! Get to Gigg and make it as loud as possible. Come on the Bury!!
In Opposition – Wyhtenshawe Town
Town have a new manager in Chris Wilcock and a host of new players brought in after the struggles of their first season in the NPLW.
They avoided relegation on a technicality, and so far there’s no sign of a revival this time. They’re currently in 19th place – one below us – with four points from five games, compared with our five from four.

The 32-year-old joins the Shakers after leaving AFC Fylde in the summer and brings over 400 EFL appearances to Gigg Lane.
He started out at Watford, making various loan moves until he left in 2012 to sign permanently for Colchester United, after a loan move in the previous season.
Massey then moved from Essex to London, where he spent a season at Leyton Orient before a move to Wigan in 2017, where he went on to make over 150 appearances in five seasons.
Port Vale were his last club in the EFL, where he played for two seasons, until he joined AFC Fylde last summer.
He’s made seven appearances against the Shakers to date, most recently off the bench for Wigan in the 2017/18 season. His last start at Gigg Lane brought him a goal and an assist for Colchester United in a 5-2 defeat in February 2016.
Manager, Dave McNabb said:
Massey will be available for selection for Saturday’s Isuzu FA Trophy tie against Wythenshawe Town.

The Shakers will be looking to make amends for last Tuesday’s Emirates FA Cup defeat and pick up all three points.
We picked up a point on the road at Congleton Town on Saturday. Radcliffe loanee Regan Riley made his Bury debut, as he begins his three-month loan spell, you can hear more from him below.
Manager Dave McNabb reflected after the game on how he would need to review recovery amongst the squad, with some players carrying knocks. Aaron Chalmers was withdrawn after 16 minutes due to injury on Saturday. Scott Duxbury & Owen Robinson also remain out through injury.
Just a point separates the two sides at this early stage of the season, with Stalybridge playing a game more. So get down to Gigg Lane and enjoy your bank holiday Monday in the right style!
In Opposition – Stalybridge Celtic
Celtic trace their history back to 1909 and have long been a strong non-league side in this part of the world. They have many successes to their credit – not least twice getting through to the FA Cup second round proper.
They fell to a 3-1 defeat of Witton Albion on Saturday afternoon, meaning they’ve won one drawn one and lost one from their opening three in the NPL West this season.
Former Shakers Ruben Jerome, Jordan Butterworth, Jack Tinning, Charlie Doyle and Andy Scarisbrick are all within the Stalybridge Celtic playing squad.
