Not for us, but for Bury.
i was credit checking a potential customer and decided to nosey onto
BFC's file and was (or maybe not) supprised to see a new CCJ for circa £22k lodged
only Wednesday this week.
looks like they are in need of a bumper crowd tomorrow to settle some bills

I wonder what kind of support our trust gave them to warrant them mentioning us for thanks.

Martin Samuel in today's Mail:

Here's why Bury are not a special case

Quite rightly, 70 of 71 Football League clubs voted not to treat Bury differently by readmitting them to the competition next season.

Previously, clubs that have gone into liquidation and reformed have returned further down football's pyramid, as seems fair.

Many have rebuilt on a sounder financial footing and are again close to where they started. There is, however, an unhealthy sense of entitlement around Bury.

It is argued they have history – as if those who folded before them did not – and should resume in League Two next season, preferred to a better-run club, denied promotion from the National League.

Local politicians are on their side with one, Ivan Lewis, MP for Bury South, threatening to take the EFL to court.

Yet, where was Lewis, or Andy Burnham, mayor of Manchester, when Hereford United went under?

If anything, Hereford's FA Cup exploits as a Southern League club defeating Newcastle in 1972 are more readily recalled than Bury winning it in 1900 and 1903.

And Chester City – founded in 1885, incidentally, the same year as Bury – produced one of British football's greatest goalscorers, Ian Rush.

The fact is, none of this mattered when these clubs could not afford to exist. To treat Bury as a special case in effect endorses the methods that brought them here.

It says that poor ownership does not matter, reckless over-spending does not matter, that as long as you have been in the club long enough, we'll see you right. 'Bury deserved more respect from the football family,' bemoaned Burnham.

No, the football family deserved more respect from Bury. They are not special, everybody is. That's why everybody gets treated the same.


Good article, apart from this line:

"Yet, where was Lewis, or Andy Burnham, mayor of Manchester, when Hereford United went under?" Yeah, Burnham, pull your finger out.

Its right Andy Burnham is a C""T . Always has been a two faced weasle. Why isnt he looking out for the coach company or the childrens charity that have been done over by this "special" club.

Rather predictably there has been no mention of this article on the beardy board. Doesn’t quite fit the woe is me narrative does it?

The reaction of some Bury fans to the issues at Macclesfield sums them up. Again.

Fooking Mardy bastards cant get it through their thick skulls that it’s over 20 years of financial mismanagement chasing unsustainable higher level football, paying for players they couldn’t afford on low incomes, that led to their situation.

Fooking unreal these bucket shakers .
Macc just dont have the finances to run a football club unfortunately, bURY didnt either but they kept enjoying the ride for 20 years.
Their lack of understanding deserves a "wow wow wow " reply LOL
Now the longer they p"ss about the less chance they will have of a phoenix club , because they are not getting any preferential treatment, Martin Samuels in the Mail has got it right at last, lets hope the local media and the stupid MPs catch on as well.
Goodbye bURY you are no more, suck it sugar lumps.

Because they're going to appeal. Win that appeal. Get lots of money in damages. Use that money to invest in the squad. Championship dream is back on.

Despite protestations on that thread, this special case is then stating he is "pleased" bury are out of the League for "the time being"

https://mobile.twitter.com/Stef1885/status/1179445931999150080

Bless him I think he's torn.

Not that it matters; bury won't be bothering the EFL anytime soon.

And in any case, he won't be watching them for a while whenever and wherever they play.

Undoubted knowledge? Or just the application of common sense and using my brain?

Does anyone think it's too soon for me to tweet the following? Feel like some people need to hear it.


"Fun Fact: The EFL have no power to stop the sale of a football club, they can only discourage a sale with the advised consequences (when consulted). They only have the power to punish clubs with unsuitable owners using fines, points deductions, embargoes and expulsion."
