Does Bury need a new Tesco or Sainsburys??

more likely you,ll be able to pick your new house plot and call it the corner flag if you get in early enough.

Bury has a big Tesco's but no Sainsbury's!!

Very sure there's some legal hold on Gigg Lane which says it must be kept as a sporting venue; other wise it would have been sold years ago.

Problem with Gigg Lane is it hasn't been used for over 2 years now they changed the locks keeping the lad who was cutting the grass out apparently falling into disrepair constant break ins people vandalizing and starting fires, unless it's bought to play football on it will unfortunately just be an eyesore and apart from Bury fans can't see many shedding a tear if it's sold and pulled down shame.

It was always one of my favourite away days Bury sad but football doesn't always look after its own.

Even though I grew up a SWFC fan I hope so as well mate.
The problem is consistency.
There are so many identical errors made to those by SWFC and they got clouted 12 points down to 6 on appeal.
So if they don't apply the punishment consistently ........
Still reckon a hefty fine ...... then stand by for the litigation threats by Wycombe to escalate.

a fine or even a transfer embargo where they can only sign free agents always seem fairer options for a supporter of that club than starting a season on a minus points making the season either a dead one or a relagation fight.

Is it true that reports are saying Tony Warner has left Stanley and will be joining Bristol Rovers as goalkeeper coach?

Hope not - can't think why he'd want to work under Joey

There are quite a few links to this on Rovers' NewsNow page:
https://www.newsnow.co.uk/h/Sport/Fo...Bristol+Rovers


One or two of them say that Tony left us after the Portsmouth game.

I think that Joey Barton’s assault charge comes up in court in the next week or two. Barnsley manager suffered facial damage over a year ago. I read somewhere that Barton .........‘allegedly pushed him’!!!!!:eek: :oke2:
