Bury Thread

[East Level 2]

Pretty much 4k were turning up before they went under. And attendances were going up by year.

Their average attendances in the five years before they folded, were: 3,774; 3,751; 3,845; 3,931; 4,044

Cool. I thought it was a fair bit lower.

Did they or was it more that they couldn't afford to keep it in good nick?

Nah fuck em, should’ve knocked Gigg lane down and turned it into a Tesco.

I have no love for them either but they probably couldn't afford any fuel to mow the pitches let alone paint etc

Good to see Bury back in whatever capacity it is.

Well done Chaddy my old local team until last summer who won there today 3-1, makes up a little for being dicks and getting kicked out of the FA Cup for playing an ineligible player....because they forgot to put a player who'd been there three years in the register.

We got King Colin from them. For that alone they deserve to prosper.

Another great video from this lass.
Have both sets of fans taken to the merger.

Seems a bit excessive from the Manchester FA or Bury are not telling the full story?

 

[Mad Eyed Screamer]

Ridiculously excessive.
The two individuals were caught, banned from the ground and being dealt with by the courts - yet everyone gets a 2 game ban......

In the meantime Liverpool fans brick visiting team buses, lob plastic bottles filled with coins over the higher tiers onto home fans below causing serious injury, no one gets caught, no action taken against anyone and it's carry on regardless......

Very strange decision. It was only 2 people ffs. Just give them lifetime bans. https://www.msn.com/en-gb/entertain...d-doors-after-fans-abusive-chants/ar-AA1mP15B

They have although I'm against giving youngsters lifetime bans, we are all a little stupid when young, crikey the stuff we did in the 80s would see us hung today

Never happens with any other club, seems like an obvious attempt to chop them down with the crowds they are getting.

Their mistake was doing it at Gigg Lane. Do the same at anfiled and they move you to a better seat.
