Horwich Posted March 19, 2013 Posted March 19, 2013 They dont even get the best crowds in their stadium Quote
Con Posted March 20, 2013 Posted March 20, 2013 Their tenants will probably be in a higher division than them in a couple of years Quote
Carlos Posted March 20, 2013 Posted March 20, 2013 They won. Problem is so did Oldham, who realistically are the only club they can catch. Scum. Quote
Casino Posted March 20, 2013 Posted March 20, 2013 They dont even get the best crowds in their stadium when are they moving? Quote
Con Posted March 20, 2013 Posted March 20, 2013 Just over 1700 at Rochdale last night as well. Even Accrington who are battling against relegation to the Conference pulled in 2000. I really wouldn't care if Buckets and Rochdale went bang or plumetted out to the lower reaches of non league. Quote
DazBob Posted March 20, 2013 Posted March 20, 2013 (edited) Bury will go bust sooner or later. Sooner the better for me. A club stands no chance where the locals don't even refer to their own town as 'town'. Edited March 20, 2013 by DazBob Quote
Con Posted March 20, 2013 Posted March 20, 2013 And when they do , I really dont think there is enough interest there for a phoenix club, like Aldershot, Newport etc. Quote
Zico Posted March 20, 2013 Posted March 20, 2013 is it possible for FC Utd to merge with Bury and have their league spot - but like Wimbledon becoming the MK Dons? FC Utd have slowed down a bit and been promoted for 5 years with crowds now dipping, stuck in division 7 so imagine they'd jump at a chance like that and no one would even noticed if Bury dissapeared Quote

There's an FC Utd fan at work who often talks of them but I've no interest and often switch off. Quote
tomski Posted March 20, 2013 Posted March 20, 2013 The people of Bury would rather have man yoo 2 in Bury than their own club. Fuck em the sad bastards. Quote
DazBob Posted March 20, 2013 Posted March 20, 2013 Didn't their club shop used to sell Man U shirts? Quote
tomski Posted March 20, 2013 Posted March 20, 2013 Wouldn't surprise me even the actual Bury fans support man yoo as well Quote
Zico Posted March 20, 2013 Posted March 20, 2013 I seem to remember a few years ago, and am sure have seen this on other occasions, Bury offered discount tickets to any Utd season ticket holder who went to their play off semi V Shrewsbury, something like that only thing was, it was on the same day as the manchester derby, stupid cunts and they lost Quote
GeorgeOghani'sIroningBoard Posted March 20, 2013 Posted March 20, 2013 Do they still have the turnstile in the cemetery wall? Their very existence reminds me of some seriously shite games and crap players like Wayne Entwistle and Tony Cunningham, both of whom ended up at Burnden for reasons that elude me to this day. Shay-kurs, Shay-kurs, rar,rar,rar. Quote

radcliffe white Posted March 20, 2013 Posted March 20, 2013 Having lived and worked in bury most of my life i would piss myself if these fuckers go bump. Theres banter but these are so bitter over us its unreal so fuck off bury with blackburn. Quote
Ghana White Posted March 20, 2013 Posted March 20, 2013 FC United come over all principled when the Bury merger is mentioned, it would go against their ethics to replace another team apparently. Seems fine for them to cheer on the actual United still though? Speaking of Bury and Rochdale reminds me of a drunk we met at Rochdale away few years back. He told us that the police had graded the worse 5 derby matches in Britain for trouble as Manchester, Glasgow, Millwall West Ham, South Wales coast and... Rochdale v Bury. I'll have a pint of whatever he was drinking Quote
EyesRight Posted March 20, 2013 Posted March 20, 2013 I'd love to draw them away in the cup and see us take over that town. Them or Preston away I hope for every year. Quote
Con Posted March 20, 2013 Posted March 20, 2013 I'd love to draw them away in the cup and see us take over that town. Them or Preston away I hope for every year. Id also like us to get them in the cup. Play them one last time. Quote

Them or Preston away I hope for every year. the pre season game couple of years back was good on the friday night 1500 or so went it really got to them when we went on pitch at end. Quote
paulhanley Posted March 20, 2013 Posted March 20, 2013 Id also like us to get them in the cup. Play them one last time. The trouble with Bury is they usually up their game by 100 per cent against us - results over the years show that. Four high scoring defeats at Burnden between 85 and 91 and, as they are very fond of pointing out, we've not beaten them at Gigg Lane since 1920 something in the league (we did win a league cup game there in 1993). I'd rather not give them a sniff of a game against us. I did enjoy us stuffing them 4-0 at the Reebok in 1998 though! Quote
