If the Bury fans in the town had actually gone to matches maybe they wouldn't have gone bust ???



I knew I could rely on you for a bit of compassion.

You’re back from dropping Big Jurg off quickly :smile:

"the EFL failed to give a late rescue bid from a Brazilian millionaire enough of a chance"... hmmm. its fine these people saying the EFL haven't given them a chance, why was the bid so late in the day?

From the sounds of it, Dale had 4 bids on the table but was only dealing with the one until it collapsed with less than an hour til the deadline.

[Some great footage from 1902 of the crowd, a shit quality of football and Fatty Foulkes of Sheffield United, who makes Stockdale look anorexic.

The opponents? The recently defunct Bury :down:

Bury’s attack described as a patchwork quilt without the design :lolol:

I don't think you understand the difference between local sides and professional football clubs either. It's a business nowadays end of. If you don't have sufficient revenue it's going to be very difficult to compete.
As i said the Premier league and it's billions could do a lot more. I hate the greed of it and always have done. As it stands this is my last season as a season ticket holder. I've had enough of football now and the tipping point is VAR. If Var is the future then i don't want to be part of it. It's not the football i grew up to and love.

Well said Spence, nail on head !

Brazilian sounds about right for the haircut on the value of Bury!!
