sweetsheri Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 For having the audacity to draw bury we will be docked 50 points a season over the next 10 years, FF banned for life and Hillsborough stadium reduced to 350 capacity due to life threatening circumstances leaving the ground over the last 30 years. Then we'll appoint Pulis as manager Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HighworthOwl Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 With Wednesdays game cancelled it means the highest ranked team is not in the draw. Makes a mockery of the whole competition! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Hoppy Hopper Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 Bury: Financially-stricken League One side have game against Gillingham suspended http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/49330590 Really not looking very hopeful for Bury. Whatever the rights and wrongs of the situation it’s heartbreaking for their supporters. I would be sad to see such an old club disappear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is not a case of a club over spending, they have been run into the ground by criminals. If we were in the same situation I'd also hope for such leniency. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They can't pay their bills - yes the owners are useless but you can't drag it on and on. Makes a mockery of the league and in our case the cup. Give them as long as possible but they should be losing these matches Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChapSmurf Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 I don't know if anyone has posted this already - I've not read the entire thread - but who do we claim compensation from, for the loss of ticket sales? The sponsors, the F.A. or do we just claim it back against FFP? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Snooty Posted August 24, 2019 Share Posted August 24, 2019 Bury are waiting to hear if a last-ditch offer to buy the League One club will save them from being expelled from the English Football League. Owner Steve Dale told BBC Radio Manchester he had agreed a deal with analytics company C&N Sporting Risk, led by Henry Newman and Rory Campbell. The EFL said it had been notified of an offer being accepted by Dale. Bury had been given until 23:59 BST on Friday to prove their financial viability.

theowlsman Posted August 24, 2019 Share Posted August 24, 2019 Sounds like a really big company, with lots of funding and no connections whatsoever to Dale, which is a blessing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
