This is it: the real deal. We’ve strengthened our squad, had a strong pre-season, and hammered South Liverpool in the Emirates FA Cup last weekend. So we go into league action full of confidence – and with good reason. There’s every indication that we’re ready to compete at this level. The pre-season was designed to test our credentials. It did, and we more than survived. Now it’s the real thing, and we’re all set to take on teams more experienced, better organised and more powerful than those we faced in 2024-25. But we have many strengths: retention of a good proportion of last season’s hugely successful squad; excellent recruitment in the close season; fine pitch-side leadership; a thriving club backed big-time by the local community; and last but not least that massive fan base. We all know what our aim is, so let’s get off to a flying start. Be there, pack the seats, and let the noise be heard far and wide. Come on you Shakers!!! In Opposition – Newcastle Town New league, new challenges. But we start at Gigg Lane. Having such a fan base is a terrific advantage, but it means every team will again come to Bury looking for a big scalp. Town finished 16th out of 22 teams in NPL Div1W last season. They make the journey from North Staffordshire on the back of a 4-0 Emirates FA Cup game win at home against Stourport Swifts, of the Midland League Premier Division. Their home is the Lyme Valley Stadium and their history goes back to a Sunday league team in 1964 via a 1986 merger with Parkway Clayton. Free Entry for Morecambe FC Fans We invite all Morecambe supporters to join us at Gigg Lane this Saturday. Whether you’re in need of a temporary football fix, a place to feel connected, or simply want to enjoy a matchday with fellow fans who understand—our gates and hearts are open to you. Show your Morecambe FC season ticket or wear your Morecambe FC badge with pride at our turnstiles for FREE entry. We will also be holding a bucket collection for the Shrimps Trust, all around the ground.

Tickets are still on sale via our ticketing page on our website. Pay on the gate will also be available.

We are thrilled to announce that all of our Legends panels have now been successfully sold and installed along the walkway between the South Stand and the Manchester Road End at Gigg Lane. Fans and sponsors have united to bring the stories of club icons vividly to life at our beloved ground. With this milestone complete, that means there are now just 16 History panels remaining for sale. These 16 panels pay tribute to the rich tapestry of Bury Football Club’s history, shining a spotlight on key moments, memorable players and defining eras. Sponsorship of a history panel costs £88 (inclusive of VAT and booking fee) and includes your name (or your business name) displayed on the panel. Whether you’re a longstanding supporter, a local business or simply someone who treasures the Shakers’ heritage, this is your chance to become a visible part of that legacy. But act quickly, once these final 16 panels are gone, they’re gone for good! Once these have been installed, we will reveal details of our Legends Wall Official Opening Event.
