    Reaction: Gaz Peet – Lower Breck (A)

    Following Bury 4-3 defeat away at Lower Breck defender Gaz Peet spoke to the club giving us his thoughts on Saturday’s game.


    Gaz Peet: “I mean to get to this point of the season undefeated was unbelievable I think the lads have worked hard and are disappointed with today. It’s I think the manner of the goals we conceded we’re great and I don’t even remember the last time we give so many chances away to a team and it was just one of them days and we’ve had too many of them this season and I know how good this group is so we won’t have many more.”


    Gaz then talked us through the last 10 minutes of the match saying: “We’ve got quality all over the pitch so when you’ve got lads at the top end of the pitch who can give you that little bit extra so it’s not surprising, it would’ve been nice if we didn’t concede the fourth in the way we did and that just gave us too much to do and yeah it’s not surprising we got back into the game we just did it too late and in the end I know we had a couple chances where we could’ve got a point but the lads tried and they left everything out there on the pitch but first half let us down a little bit.”


    Gaz then finished the interview by giving the fans a message ahead of next weekends match, he said “I mean this groups got something I’ll tell you that, it’s a great group and they’ve got quality everywhere so get yourself down again and I’m pretty sure we can turn everything around I mean its not even all that it’s one loss and we’ve got plenty more to come and this won’t define our season losing away to Lower Breck so stick behind us and support us.”

    Andy Briggs Departs

    We can confirm the departure of striker Andy Briggs, who has signed for West Didsbury & Chorlton.

    Following a seven-day approach by West, Andy informed the management of his wish to leave the football club.

    The 26-year-old joined the Shakers in July 2023 from Steeton, and made 33 appearances for the club last season, scoring 25 goals.

    He made a further 12 this season and has also had a spell with Widnes on dual-registration.

    Match Info: Lower Breck (A), Sat 23rd Nov, 3pm KO

    The first of three successive away games provides the Shakers with one of the toughest challenges of our season so far. Lower Breck are among the top teams in the league, and look certain to be among those scrapping for the promotion places come April. So they will be keen to end our unbeaten run of 21 games. 

    The Shakers go into the challenge having had a week to reflect on our outstanding 8-0 home win against Longridge Town and extra training to further boost the skills on view in that game.

    Strong in defence, dynamic in midfield and relentlessly threatening up front: we certainly looked the real deal.

    Lower Breck also come into this game with a great win fresh in their minds. 5-0 at home against Glossop North End, who we know are no push-overs. 

    And they also will have had a week off, because a frozen pitch scuppered their mid-week away fixture against FC Helens in the Macron Cup second round.

    Our next match at Gigg Lane will be against Colne on Saturday December 7. After Lower Breck we travel to Burscough a week later and Litherland REMYCA on December 4.

    Plenty of miles for our travelling fans – but all the players really value your backing, and so does everyone at the club. So please keep going for it!!   
    In Opposition – Lower Breck
    Lower Breck are currently fourth in the league table – two places behind us, with 46 points from 25 games against our 49 from 21. They have won three and drawn two of their last six games.

    Formed 14 years ago as a youth team, they play at the Anfield Sports Community Centre. They later joined the Lancashire County Premier League second division, were promoted to the NWCFL in 2019, and went up into the Premier Division in 2021.
