    6 Promotions away from the Football League.
  • Bury AFC have been given their place in a league for next season


    That is a screwing with my CDO

    Yup they did... Nelson were in the Football League between 1921 and 1931

    1922/23 season they won the Third Division North, were they met Bury in the Second Division the following year...

    Bury won both games; 2-0 | 0-5

    Bury would win the 2nd Division that season; Nelson got relegated

    AFC Darwen are another side that Bury faced in the Football League

    Original team Darwen and Bury were in the Second Division together back in 1894/95, Bury won both those ties: 1-0

    Ironically Bury won the Second Division that season as well

    Looking at the state of that ball it must have been one that Simon Church smacked all round the park.

    I reckon it could be Nicky Baileys penalty miss one that got all misshapen on reentering the earth's atmosphere. 😉
    It's re-entered the earth's atmosphere?!

    I wasn't expecting that for another few decades; I thought the ball was still in interplanetary orbit somewhere near Neptune.

  • Level 10! Fair play to them though getting back up and running.

    Why are they called Bury AFC though and not AFC Bury?

    AFC Bury already exists, or they did
  • Notice that the Isle of Man are entering a team in the same organisation as Bury AFC next season - Difference is they'll be in the South Division

    That'd be some away game weekend for the team 😜. Friend of mine up here used to play at that level and above for Northwich Victoria & Leek Town back in the day and his son was a CB with Crewe.

    Certainly more and more island teams being created

    Already got Guernsey and Jersey in the pyramid, the latter were harshly dealt with by the decision to null and void their League as they'd stormed the Division

    Wonder how long it'll be before we see Isle of Wight and others

    Did some work over in Guernsey there's no love lost at all between them and the folk on Jersey.

    Are Bury still playing at Gigg Lane?

    Read comments on twitter that they'll be playing at Ratcliffe Borough

    Apparently Bury FC havent been wound up yet and are applying to enter the National League next season so if they're successful they'll use Gigg Lane

    Looking at this table it is very sad how the greed of dodgy businessman can bring a football club to it's knees.

    It will be interesting to see how clubs cope with attendances near 1000 when they normally get 50.  Bury will take loads to the away games.

    Didn't know this. I assumed fans had set up Bury AFC because the original Bury was dead and buried.

    So if the original Bury have their application successful and continue in the National league, surely Bury fans would follow them and have no need for the phoenix club?

    Is Steve Dale still involved?

    This was a statement issued last October on their OS

  • Steve Dale is still one of only 2 directors, the other is Jill Neville. 

    The CVA has been closed but the creditors appear not to have been paid.

    There is a recent artical in the Bury local paper and he sounds rather bullish and arrogant that they will be excepted into the national league and that renegotiating the CVA won't be a problem.  Which does beg the question why none of the creditors have been paid. 
  • Surely the league won't accept them if Dale is still in charge?
  • Surely the league won't accept them if Dale is still in charge?
    He said in the artical he would "stand down as chairman" if the national league made it a requirement of entry.

    It does beg the question why he is still there though.  The up keed of the ground, which looks in very good shape and the training pitches at Carrington must be costing him money? 
  • Will probably claim they could do so compared with Sheffield Wednesday because their initial punishment was given before the end of the season 
  • Macclesfield Town relegated after EFL wins points appeal, Stevenage reprieved


    Stevenage won three league games in total last season.
