Re: Our neighbours..........
 

Some good news at last!!!!!!!!!!! :)

Re: Our neighbours..........
 

Thats good to hear also shows the calibre of Bury fans who are glad for them.

Re: Our neighbours..........
 

how about the idea of cheap entry at the weekend for bury season ticket holders. shows our support for them plus it gets stanley a bit of good free publicity. you never know some could stop with us. salford rugby club are doing this for their game.

Re: Our neighbours..........
 

Great idea, MH.
£10/5 entry for Bury ST holders would be a nice gesture until such time as they resurrect a fan’s club.

Re: Our neighbours..........
 

Dave Burgess put the following on Twitter last night (for those who don't have Twitter).

We certainly don’t want to be seen to gain at the expense of Bury’s sad expulsion from @EFL but based on the tweet by Chris @cjsmiffy1978 any Bury fan who bought a match ticket for their game this weekend v @drfc_official are more than welcome to come to the @ASFCofficial match day ticket office on Saturday and swap for a Stanley v @MKDonsFC match ticket at no extra cost - you are more than welcome to wear your Bury FC shirts and scarves and join the Stanley Ultras on the @FarleysLaw Clayton End or sit with families in the seated area of the @HML_Recycling main stand. Both clubs have supported each other in the hardest of times and we think this is the least we can do for our friends from Bury.... #FootballFamily

Re: Our neighbours..........
 

i think thats a great move from our club.

Re: Our neighbours..........
 

Nice one Stanley

Re: Our neighbours..........
 

Even better! Well done, Mr.Burgess

Re: Our neighbours..........
 

I thought that the Deputy Leader of the local Council said on TV (yesterday, from memory) that it already was an ACV? :alright:

Re: Our neighbours..........
 

Good, but that alone won’t always stop the developers. It merely puts an obligation on the current owners, when they decide to sell, to offer the land to ‘community’ bidders but at ‘market price’.

Re: Our neighbours..........
 

I find it hard to belive anyone would have bought a ticket for Bury v Doncaster.

I feel worse for anyone who boughgt a season ticket.

Re: Our neighbours..........
 

I’m sorry but the previous owner of Bury saddled the club with a huge debt; Mr Dale was simply out of his depth and didn’t have either the finances or desire to plug the hole.
Burys debt was far too big for anyone with a brain to take it on; the best solution all around was for the EFL to stick to one of its deadlines (at last) and allow the club to fold so the fans can begin the re-build of a Phoenix club.

football clubs have to pay the bills, they are not a charity.

One of the groups who contributed to the situation at Bury but appear to be getting no scrutiny is the banks (think it was Barclays?) and investors who took the ground and car park (land) as collateral for funds; what where they thinking?

While all creditors need to be paid back in full, lending money to such people against such assets should have set off alarm bells.
In such circumstances of bad judgement, it could be argued the investors deserve what little return they will get from the ground and land sale.

I will let the forum administrator decide if they will request you to provide me with a full apology for your outburst.
