A message from Forever Bury

Have you asked Gary and Phil chuckle? They are fucking minted and continue to leach a fortune out of football

Dear Friends and Supporters,

We are asking fellow football supporters to help Bury Football Club fans rebuild by donating to their cause here: https://www.gofundme.com/f/help-rebuild-bury

As you will have seen, the past few months have been extraordinarily difficult for everyone associated with Bury Football Club. The outpouring of support for our town has been incredibly touching, and we thank every single one of you for the messages and actions of support that we have received. Our community is grieving and will continue to grieve in the weeks and months to come.

It is an unfathomable thing for our football club to disappear overnight and has left a gaping hole in the heart of our community that will take us time to repair: this isn’t just about the 90 minutes on a Saturday afternoon, but all the friendships and connections that happen off the field too.

This repair process cannot be undertaken alone and does not exist in isolation. It is not just Bury that is under threat: football clubs across the country could face a similar fate.

Forever Bury would greatly appreciate your continued support as our town continues to heal. We cannot allow the story of Bury to fade away as the season continues. You, the wider footballing family needs to stand up and shout about what has happened over the past few months and ensure that the story of Bury FC does not become the new normal for other clubs up and down the country.

There are still serious questions to be asked of the EFL and their role in this process. However, we believe that the best option for this moment in time is to have open and positive discussions with the EFL. We are under no illusion that the football club has spent beyond its means over the last few years but punishing everyday supporters, community and local economy for something that is beyond our control is unjust.

As such, as fans of Bury FC, we would greatly appreciate it if you were to support us. All monies donated via our GoFundMe page will be used by Forever Bury to:

1) to pay the legal and other associated costs and charges incidental to developing a proposal which can be put to Football League to allow Bury FC to work towards re-entry to League;

2) if necessary, to pay the legal and other associated costs and charges to challenge the decision and conduct of the English Football League;

3) to pay the legal and other associated costs and charges incidental to working with 3rd parties in whatever way we can to rebuild Bury FC for the future; or

4) to provide day-to-day funding for Forever Bury going forward so that Forever Bury can continue the legacy and history of Bury FC as we think appropriate and continue our campaign for reform and better regulation to ensure the sustainable future of the football community.

The membership and directors of Forever Bury reserve the right to vote and choose one of the four options listed above.

Once more, thank you for your support in recent weeks. It has been a bright spark in a series of otherwise dark days and shows the good that our football family can do when we come together.

Kind Regards,
Forever Bury Supporters Trust

Good luck Bury.Although I was born in Manchester I have lived in Bury last 15 yrs and it's where my kids were born.The club was at the heart of the town and you can't look much further than the the last 2 owners whe laying the blame.Although I also believe the EFL could have done more at various stages.

Exactly, they are the twats who should be springing to the aid of Bury.

Let’s face it Mrs. Neville was in an important position at the Club and should have kicked up a fuss when that dodgy bugger Dale strolled up.

Feel sorry for genuine Bury fans but we owe them nothing.
 
This whole “help Bury” thing doesn’t sit right. I still remember all the shit I used to get off Bury fans. City as a club helped them, they fucked up. We don’t owe them anything.

Good luck to them, I hope they do something but this expectation that City help them or United or Neville’s or anyone else. Do one.

BTW this is a non City related thread so it needs moving to the General Football forum.
Can one of our mods(male or female) move it to the correct forum please.

Technically its not even football related anymore and off topic would have been more appropriate
