The people of Bury, don't support Bury. Not the fault of their actual fans. More likely to see a Barcelona shirt outside Gigg Lane most days than a Bury shirt. Which is sad
They roughly have half the population of Bolton, but with absolutely nowhere near the same catchment area, nor recent success
And long may that last.

They have a ten times better market and shopping centre though......Gary the Enfield wrote:boltonboris wrote:Not sure what we expect from a team just outside Manchester who have been in the bottom couple of divisions for all but about 4 years in the last 50.

Re: planning ahead...
Nailed. Bolton town centre is a total embarrassment and I think the only reason they are building a new interchange is so we can get away easier. Bury centre, last time I went it was booming. Lots of different shops, the market, the indoor mall, and not a boarded-up pub in sight, and the chuff-chuff of steam trains passing. How come??TANGODANCER wrote:They have a ten times better market and shopping centre though......Gary the Enfield wrote:boltonboris wrote:Not sure what we expect from a team just outside Manchester who have been in the bottom couple of divisions for all but about 4 years in the last 50.

Meanwhile, despite it being a local derby, I think one of the stands will be shut - am I correct?

According to "official sources" they've sold around 4300 home tickets and we have 3200 away.
