Match Info: Wythenshawe (H), Sat 5th Sep, 3pm KO

It was a bank holiday weekend of highs and lows for The Shakers, who succumbed to a 2-1 defeat on the road to Hyde United on Monday afternoon after smashing Ilkeston Town 7-0 two days prior.


Now, Anthony Johnson’s side set their sights on a run of home games, welcoming Wythenshawe in the First Qualifying Round of the Emirates FA Cup this Saturday.


The Shakers will hope to capitalise on our stellar form at Gigg Lane so far, having won three of their first four home games.


Wythenshawe progressed after beating Mossley 2-0 at home, their third win of the season.
In Opposition – Wythenshawe

Wythenshawe were originally founded in 1946 by Reg Gauntlet, who was a local Window Cleaner, becoming members of the South Manchester and Wythenshawe League.


After being evicted from their home of 32 years in May 2015, the club secured £812,000 of funding to build a new clubhouse and pitch.


The club won back to back titles in 2023 and 2024, reaching their highest level, the Northern Premier League West Division, in the process.


In recent years, Wythenshawe have received online stardom for a veterans team that boasts multiple ex-internationals and Premier League winners, including Stephen Ireland, Emile Heskey, Danny Drinkwater, Papiss Cisse, Antonio Valencia, and Joleon Lescott.

By the Fans, For the Future: Up The Shakers Sponsors Bury FC Under-21s

Up The Shakers is proud to announce that, thanks entirely to the generosity of our forum members, we have raised enough money to become the front-of-shirt sponsor of the Bury FC Under-21s home kit.
The Up The Shakers name will now be worn proudly across the front of the famous white and blue shirt throughout the season, a fitting symbol of what can be achieved when Bury supporters come together to back their club.
This is far more than a sponsorship deal or an opportunity to put our logo on a shirt. It is a direct investment in the future of Bury Football Club.
Supporting the next generation
The Under-21s provide an essential bridge between youth football and the senior game. It is at this stage that promising young players must adapt to a faster, stronger and more demanding level of football while continuing to develop their technical ability, confidence and understanding of the game.
Without a strong development pathway, talented young players can easily be lost to the club. Supporting the Under-21s gives them the opportunity to train, compete, and demonstrate their ability to progress further.
The money provided through sponsorship contributes to the practical costs of running and developing the team. This includes areas such as playing and training equipment, match balls, medical supplies, travel, facilities and wider support for young players who may otherwise find the financial demands of football difficult.
Every contribution made by an Up The Shakers member has therefore helped create a better and more stable environment in which these players can develop.
Building a pathway to the first team
For a club like Bury, developing our own players should be a central part of the long-term strategy.
A successful Under-21 setup can provide the first team with players who already understand the club, its expectations and what it means to represent the town. It can also reduce the need to continually recruit from elsewhere and may eventually create valuable assets for the club.
Not every Under-21 player will go on to become a first-team regular, but every player deserves the best possible opportunity to reach their potential. A properly supported development team gives the coaching staff more time and better resources to work with players, while giving those players a meaningful standard of competitive football.
It also gives younger supporters players they can follow as they progress through the club—from the Under-21s and, hopefully, into the first-team squad.
A forum that does more than talk
Up The Shakers was created as a place for Bury supporters to discuss the club, share opinions and remain connected. However, our members have repeatedly shown that the forum can be much more than a place for conversation.
When the opportunity arose to support the Under-21s, members responded.
Some donated larger amounts, others contributed whatever they could afford, but every donation helped us reach the target. This sponsorship belongs to every member who contributed, shared the appeal or encouraged others to get involved.
Seeing the Up The Shakers name on the front of a Bury FC shirt is something we can all be proud of. It represents the collective effort of supporters who care deeply about the club and want to play a positive role in rebuilding its future.
What it means to the players
For the young players wearing the shirt, the sponsorship also sends an important message: the supporters are watching, they care about their progress, and they want them to succeed.
Pulling on a Bury FC shirt already carries responsibility. Wearing one backed directly by the club’s supporters adds another layer of meaning. It connects the players with the people in the stands and reminds them that the development team is an important part of the wider club.
We hope the players wear the shirt with pride and recognise that an entire community of supporters is behind them.
Thank you
We would like to thank every Up The Shakers member who helped make this possible. Whether you donated, promoted the fundraiser or simply supported the idea, you played a part.
We would also like to thank everyone involved with the Bury FC Under-21s—the coaches, volunteers, players and families who give their time and energy to help develop the next generation.
This is what supporter involvement should look like: backing the club, strengthening its foundations and helping provide opportunities for young people to succeed.
The logo may say Up The Shakers, but the message behind it is even more important: Bury supporters backing Bury players and investing in the future of Bury Football Club.

Boxing Day tickets sold out!

A huge thank you to the Bury FC supporters who have snapped up our entire 900-ticket allocation for the Boxing Day trip to FC United of Manchester.


Your support has been exceptional, and we can’t wait to see 900 Shakers making the short trip on 26th December.


We also want to provide some clarity around the ticketing process.


Tickets for the fixture went on sale via FC United’s Fanbase app over the Bank Holiday weekend. Bury FC had not received official communication from FC United regarding the ticketing arrangements before tickets went on sale.

Having reached out to FC United on Monday, we have since received communication from the home club, including confirmation of the ticketing plans, segregation arrangements, and allocations.


As the tickets were being sold directly by FC United, rather than through Bury FC, it was not possible for us to operate a Bury FC season ticket holder priority window for this fixture.


Our allocation of 900 tickets has now sold out.


Thank you once again for your incredible support and patience. Boxing Day is going to be some occasion.

Hyde United 2-1 Bury: Match Report

A third defeat in five matches underlines what has been a frustrating pattern for Bury early this season. All the irresistible attacking play of 48 hours earlier disappeared and two defensive lapses condemned the Shakers to a 2-1 loss away to Hyde United.


Looking to make an immediate impact Kai Evans sent in a cross that had to be well picked out by Hyde keeper Jordan Eastham with Mo Touray lurking.


Touray was in the thick of it again holding the ball up well in the penalty area and playing the ball off for Bailey Sloane to shoot. The strike deflected wide for a corner.


It seemed Bury were destined to score when on an attack a slick backheel by Tom Carr left Evans with an open sight of goal, his shot however was well saved by Eastham.


Despite the early promise it was the home team that opened the scoring. On their first attack a long ball down the middle found Max McCarthy, on loan from Radcliffe, who rounded the keeper and finished into an empty net. Despite Bury protests the linesman’s flag stayed down.


The offence taken by the offside flag not going up was compounded minutes later when Tom Carr burst down the left wing squaring to Kai Evans to score only to see the other assistant referee had raised his flag for what looked to be a well timed run.


Despite their efforts it looked as though Bury would go in a the break trailing but a moment of magic in midfield levelled the sides. George Glendon, usually content to hold back and let play develop, went on a long solo run. He weaved in and out of defenders trying to bring him down before he shot towards the bottom corner out of reach for Eastham and claimed a deserved equaliser for the visitors.


After halftime Bury came out of the traps well. Tom Carr was nearly through but for a one on one tussle with Will Hall. The Tigers centre back did enough to steer the ball away from danger.


Mo Touray and Owen Robison worked well together Robinson teeing up Touray who shot wide while when returning the favour later Robinson’s effort from Touray deflected and was saved.


The home defence was tiring, sitting deeper and getting increasingly desperate with their clearances. Leo Graham burst into the box and forced another good save from Eastham while a James Neild cross was headed wide by Carr.


Yet time wore on and no goal materialised. The momentum slowed to a stall and from nowhere the hosts scored again. Max McCarthy at the centre of it all got to a loose ball ahead of Bailey Sloane and suddenly Bury were on their heels and forced to defend a two on one situation. Louis Isherwood rushed to cut off McCarthy but that left former Blackpool man Jack Redshaw unmarked and he easily powered his effort to bottom corner.


Immediately attacking options from the bench were added in Anthony Dudley, Luca Navarro and Jes Uchegbulam. The subs nearly made the perfect start, Dudley crossed the ball to Navarro who shot over the bar from a very tight angle.


Still reeling Bury nearly fell three behind had Yann Songo’o done better with a shot saved low by Allen and a looping effort that went over the bar.


As has been the case in other matches the Shakers struggled to break down opposing defences packed deeply in their own half. A Leo Graham cross from the right flashed across the box, three or four Bury players had a chance to get to it but all missed the connection.


There was one moment Bury got in behind the Hyde defence. Jes Uchegbulam latching onto a ball forward, picked his moment and struck a thumping effort that beat Eastham but crashed against the near post.


At the end of five minutes of added time a cross from the left was headed on by Uchegbulam straight into the path of Graham. With the whole goal open to him his header was straight at Eastham who gladly accepted it in the last meaningful action of a disappointing match for Bury.

Match Info: Hyde United (A), Mon 31st August, 3pm KO

After a stunning 7-0 win against Ilkeston on Saturday, Anthony Johnson’s side will be hoping to continue their fine form against Hyde United this Bank Holiday Monday.


A quick turnaround from our Saturday game, The Shakers will make the short trip over to Ewen Fields.


Our opponents come off the back of a thrilling 4-4 draw away at Bamber Bridge on Saturday.


Players to have represented both clubs include Andy Bishop, Tom Pratt and Harry Bunn.
In Opposition – Hyde United
Founded in 1885, Hyde United were dealt their most humiliating defeat in their first two years, losing 26-0 to Preston North End in the FA Cup.


In the 1887-1888 season, Hyde met Newton Heath (now Manchester United), with the local press referring to the game as the unofficial championship of Manchester.


Hyde adopted their nickname, The Tigers, in the 1960s, becoming founding members of the Northern Premier League in the same year.


Hyde have reached as high as the National League, and as low as the Northern Premier League Division One North in the last fifteen years.
Admission & Tickets
Although the match is not all-ticket, tickets are available online for Bury FC supporters to help ease congestion and speed up entry at the Away turnstiles.


Tickets can be purchased in advance via Fanbase.
Travel & Parking
Address: Project Solar Stadium, Walker Lane, Hyde SK14 5PL

Parking/Travel: The Hyde United main car park will be restricted to players, officials, sponsors and reserved mobility spaces.


The adjacent Leisure Centre car park will also have limited availability, as the Centre will remain open for its own customers. Supporters are therefore encouraged to park towards Hyde Town Centre and walk the approximately 10 minutes to the ground.


Alternatively, the regular 201 bus service from Manchester, via Hyde Bus Station, stops near the ground on Mottram Road.


There is also a train service from Manchester to Newton for Hyde, with the stadium approximately a 10-minute walk from the station.
