Bury FC Coaches Recognised with FA Reward Experience at Wembley

Bury FC is proud to celebrate a fantastic achievement for Casey Lynchey, Head of Community and Women’s Football, who was selected as a prize winner through the FA Reward and Recognition Scheme.


As part of the award, Casey was given the opportunity to play on the pitch at Wembley Stadium and to nominate a fellow coach to share the experience. With more than 75 coaches across the club, Casey faced a difficult decision and ultimately selected Carla Jenkinson, Comets Coach, in recognition of her outstanding contribution to the Comets programme.


Speaking about the experience, Casey said:
The FA Reward and Recognition Scheme celebrates individuals who go above and beyond to support grassroots football, and this experience is a fitting reward for the commitment and impact shown by both Casey and Carla.

Club Statement: First Team Management Update

Bury Football Club can confirm that Tim Lees will step up into the role of First Team Manager on an interim basis until the end of the 2025/26 season.

Tim has been a highly valued member of the club’s football staff and brings continuity, commitment, and a deep understanding of the club’s values and ambitions. His appointment ensures stability as the team continues its work on and off the pitch for the remainder of the campaign.

Tim will be supported by Sam Ashton, who will play a key role within the first team setup and provide additional experience and continuity during this interim period.

Lees stated on his appointment:
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.

Everyone at Bury Football Club would like to congratulate Tim on his appointment and wish both him every success in the role. The club would also like to thank supporters for their continued backing as we move forward together.

Pied Piper of Hamelin

Members of our Bury FC grassroots teams, bury ballers and Junior Shakers, enjoyed a special night out at the theatre as they attended the Bury Pantomime at the Met on Tuesday 9th December. 

Everyone really enjoyed watching a special Bury themed Pied Piper of Hamelin. Players, coaches and families enjoyed an evening full of laughter, music and festive fun, with the panto proving a huge hit among everyone in attendance. For many, it was their first time visiting The Met, making the evening even more memorable.

Bury FC would like to thank The Met for their warm welcome and continued support and partnership. We are proud to be able to offer opportunities like this to our young members and look forward to creating many more shared experiences for our shakers in the future.

For more information on when you can catch the show visit The Met’s website here:

Bury FC Club Statement December 14 2025

Bury Football Club can confirm that Michael Jolley has today been relieved of his duties as First Team Manager by mutual consent.

The Board recognises the strength of feeling expressed in recent days by supporters, staff, partners and players, and the very real impact the Board’s decision to appoint Michael has had on individuals connected to the Club.

Assistant manager Tim Lees will continue to manage the team on an interim basis while the Board undertakes a wider review of club operations. 

We will also be engaging directly with players, staff and stakeholders to listen, learn and ensure that appropriate support is available.

Our immediate priority is the welfare of our people and the stability of the Club and our community. 

We believe this step is necessary to help restore confidence, create space for reflection, and allow Bury FC to move forward in a way that reflects our values and responsibilities.

Bury Football Club remains committed to acting with integrity, transparency and respect. Further updates will be shared when appropriate.

Michael Jolley said: “I do not wish my presence to deter the board from its mission of returning the club to its rightful place in the EFL.  

“I would like to wish the board, the players, and the supporters, the very best for the future, and hope the club can continue its journey back to where it belongs.”  

Ends
