    Too Big For Your Boots?

    Women’s First Team player, Jasmine Dawkes Bury Football Club is proud to support this initiative, along with our friends at the FGRS Community Hub to help grassroots and school sports.

    We will be collecting pre loved football boots, trainers and astro boots in useable condition at our home game against AFC Liverpool on Saturday 6th April.

    These will then be distributed to local schools and grass roots clubs for children and families who need them. If you are unable to bring them to the game, the FGRS Community Hub (also based at Gigg Lane) will be collecting donations from the 8th April until Friday 19th April. The Hub’s opening hours are Monday 12.30-2.30pm, and Wednesday and Friday 9.30am-2.30pm.

    Your preloved boots and trainers could make a huge difference to children and young people as they are often a big expense to families. Both Bury FC and FGRS Community Hub firmly believe that nobody should be prevented from taking part in sport for want of the right footwear. It also helps us do our bit for the environment by keeping the boots out of landfill when they could be out to good use.

    Our squads across the whole club have been taking part by enthusiastically collecting with the Men’s and Women’s First Teams, Under 23s, Women’s Reserves, Women’s and Men’s Recreational and Development, Futsol and U12s all organising their own collections.

    A real club and community effort! We look forward to receiving your boot donations in a couple of weeks.

    Behind Closed Doors Ticket Update

    We have set in motion the process to refund single tickets bought for the games played behind closed doors, as we have an existing process via our ticketing company for this. Season tickets do not have an equivalent process.

    Unfortunately, on a practical level it is impossible for us to offer a straight forward refund for season ticket holders. It would require us to gather and hold everyone’s bank details and take many months to process, as we do not hold bank or card details for supporters.

    We don’t have the resources to pay refunds promptly, and it poses a security risk if we hold bank details for a significant period of time. This is another reason why we would have preferred a fine, rather than a stadium closure.

    For this reason our preferred options are:
      A large number of supporters have told us they want us to keep the money. We are obviously grateful for this and hope the ability to live stream both games behind closed doors offered some value in return. We have also been asked about donations to compensate for loss of revenue. We would prefer supporters to waive form of credit than donate money at this stage. There is a possibility we may need to navigate our way through the play-offs. This would give us at least one additional home game and maybe other tickets which we could add into the season ticket in lieu of the games missed. If the above options are not taken, we will offer a ‘gift card’ which supporters can use to offset the cost of next season ticket or against any other single tickets including friendlies and cup games. This also allows us to spread the financial burden over a number of months, and we are able to administer it, as it offers credit and doesn’t require a bank transfer.   We appreciate some supporters may prefer a straight forward refund but on a practical level we cannot manage this process en masse. Clearly the options above require an assessment of the situation at the end of the season, so are not immediate.

    We have a member vote coming soon on the away kit design for next season and will include an advisory vote on this matter to allow members to approve or reject the broad policy stated above.

    Thank you for your continued support.

    GAME OFF: Ramsbottom United (H)

    The Gigg Lane pitch today We are sad to report that following heavy down pours overnight, our game with Ramsbottom United due to take place this evening, has once again succumbed to the weather.

    A local referee was called in this afternoon when concerns were raised about the surface when reviewed this morning, despite clearer weather forecast.

    It has been no secret that the pitch at Gigg Lane has suffered considerably through the wet winter period. There have been regular postponements within this time, with water often sat on the surface and the pitch struggling to drain without the benefit of a long period to dry out.

    The effort to get games on has been considerable, with ground staff working up against it on many occassions. Playing two home games over the last Tuesday and Saturday, has led to significant deterioration. The rain falling during the game on Saturday, as well as the significant down pours overnight have left the surface unplayable.

    Works to improve the surface between now and our next game on Easter Saturday are ongoing. We are all praying for less rain at the same time!

    Another new date for this fixture will be confirmed in due course, and tickets will be valid for the rearranged fixture.
