Just seen their takeover is off and it looks like they'll be going into liquidation.
Dreadful that every fucking high up in the EPL or EFL, or big club like City can just sit by and let one of the oldest clubs in English football go to the wall. Got cunts like Sanchez at Utd sitting on the bench collecting 500k a week, how is that allowed?
English football is corrupt and fucked.

Defo questions needs be asked of EFL but not sure we can point finger other clubs as their not responsible for the likes of bury. Even if they wanted to help would football regulations allow them too??
And where does it stop if you help one do they then have to help every club.
Only way I can see it improving in future are if clubs like bury become feeder clubs to big boys but smaller clubs won’t like that either

Only way I can see it improving in future are if clubs like bury become feeder clubs to big boys but smaller clubs won’t like that either It all works it's way back to the FL's fit and proper owner's test. That was where the cancer began at both clubs, Blackpool and Coventry too. Shaun Harvey has a lot to answer for. There is also the small matter of FFP fines, when the deal was first signed off on, being distributed to the lower league clubs who wouldn't be receiving large TV deals. Not long after the rules changed that it now goes to charity but unless it is MIND, the EFL's official charity, it is impossible to find out which charities are receiving the money. |

I have a mate who is a Bury fan and I can't believe that just a few months back I was congratulating him on his teams promotion.
Really sad.

Spot on Esox FFP gibes should be used to bail out clubs like this that would make FFP worthwhile

Posted on Bolton thread that smaller clubs should ground share to cut costs. No one would like it but if it's that or go under....? If it works in Milan...

I’m not sure in this case Can get city clubs sharing but when you get down to town level it won’t work in my opinion as there unique towns. Like saying reading should share with oxford simply because of locality |

The manner of his departure (post our FFP sanction) remains clouded in mystery. Ownership regs apart, there is no question that FFP has achieved the exact opposite of what was intended, an entirely predictable scenario (as discussed elsewhere on here). Harvey had serious input into both. |

Just shows what could have been for us. When you consider exactly how fucked we were I think the guys who’ve sorted the mess deserve enormous credit. With the foundations we’ve laid we will
Come out of this whole shambles a better, stronger club. Shame the same can’t be said for bury and Bolton. One things for certain though, they sadly won’t be the last

There is so much money in modern day football that a fund should be set up to aid clubs in the situations Bolton and Bury find themselves in. Tv deals of over a billion pounds and rising with agents nicking at least 100 million a year from the game tells you that there is enough to set something like this up.

No longer a game just a business and sky and people like that annoying fuc£er shreeves sum the modern game. Premier league is all that matters to them. Gary Neville should have a word with himself considering it is his hometown club with a stand named after his old man. Managed to get Peter Lim to fund Salford City sure he could have helped find someone for Bury.

I’ve no idea how bad their finances are, but would have thought that there would have been a few former footballers who might have put their hands in their considerably deep pockets in order to help out temporarily. Perhaps a couple that were born in Bury, whose father earned a living from them and whose mother worked there too.
I appreciate that as they own another club, there are certain limitations with regard to investing. But surely they could have diverted a few quid.
Edit: Just seen 73’s post. 👍

Edit: Just seen 73’s post. 👍 the brothers grim is right. The FA, BBC,and media general chucked an arm and a leg at the women's world cup and despite all the hype the little wanker still managed to get a worse finishing position than they achieved previously with a tenth of the support. That's nothing compared to this. Football is not a normal business, especially in small towns its part of the community, the fabric. The Nevilles were part of that. But it isn't just them at fault, the EFL is a crime scene. They allowed the club to be taken over not once but twice by shysters. Fit and proper persons? Yeah, right. Throw the dog's breakfast of FFP into the frame and it makes me wish we'd taken them on in court. |

a wake up call for all of us. Players wages got to be more sensible and outlaw the parasite agents. Gordon Taylor the PFA Chairman is knocking on 80 and his salary is over £700,000 a year ffs, no wonder the old fossil won't leave. What has happened to Bury is a fucking disgrace

Doesn't matter how much or how little revenue you make, if you can't budget and manage financially you will eventually go under. Sad but a cold hard fact.

Been chatting to other fans about Bury on Facebook. Mad how little sympathy there seems to be for them. For fans of other League 2 sides the general consensus seems to be that Bury cheated the system to get promoted last season and deserve what's coming.
I suppose I get it, but every club is just 1 bad owner away from being in the same predicament!

For those fans who went to Bury every week with the two Manchester clubs just around the corner, I salute you. Hope you will return someday |

Exactly. Takes a fan of a certain ilk to follow the so called lesser teams who are in the constant shadow of their richer neighbours.
The game would be a lot worse off without that sort of supporter.
