    Bury splashing the cash

    Ah Stalyvegas :) im not far from there, but i live on the Derbyshire side of the border now, having moved from Manchester about 5 years ago. Been to a couple of Staly Celtic games, not a bad day out.

    Mowbray admits he will have to rely on loans

    Well thats kind of my point. In an ideal world we wouldn't need loans and could afford to sign a full squad of permanent players but thats not realistic at the moment. So if we must rely on loans then its surely better to have 5 good quality players in right from the start on season long deals...

    Fixtures out soon

    Barnsley, Dale or Oldham away would do me. :)

    Mowbray admits he will have to rely on loans

    It's the timing of bringing in loans as well. Under Pressley it seemed we had a never ending stream of loans coming in and leaving just as quick. I think if TM can get say 5 loan players in on season long deals (or at least until January) then they can at least feel as though they are part of...

    Bury splashing the cash

    I am spoiled for choice these days. The local amateur side play on a field literally at the end of my road so i nip down there most Sundays. Glossop North End are my nearest "proper" team and they have had an incredible season winning promotion and the NW counties cup, plus reaching the FA Vase...

    Bury splashing the cash

    I definitely got the better end of the deal.

    Bury splashing the cash

    My best mate is a Dale fan so when i moved up here I just went to games with him. Dragged him to quite a few Cov games as well mind

    Bury splashing the cash

    True. Although i wouldn't be surprised if a number of supposed FC fans who live round that way cant be bothered trekking to the new ground and just go to Bury games instead.

    Bury splashing the cash

    They essentially got given their ground for nowt when the council bailed them out last time they were on the brink. Their new chairman has bunged a fair few quid of his own cash in and they got a sizable (by league 2 standards) sponsorship deal from JD Sports. They have also benefited from FC...

    Lack Of Transfer Activity

    I remember being quite pleased when we signed Pugh, Reda, Jackson and Tudgay. I really thought players like that would see us kick on and challenge at the right end of the league. Didn't quite work out did it!

    Leon Clarke Joins Bury

    It's the JD Sports sponsorship deal that has lined Burys pockets.

    New signings soon

    David Perkins signed for Wigan after Blackpool let him go. Missed a trick there, really decent midfielder for league one. David Cornell available following release by Swansea, half decent keeper though i imagine he can get a champ club.

    Carlton Cole anyone?

    ^This Word this morning is that he has already signed for QPR anyway..............

    New signings soon

    Reasonable defensive centre mid, looked good at Boro at times but did suffer with injuries. He is the wrong side of 30 mind.

    New signings soon

    Mark Robins obviously hasn't taken a holiday this year, 3 signings done and dusted already. Pretty good ones too, Dawson, King and now Wiseman. Scunny could do well this season.

    PAUL McSHANE ANY CHANCE!!!!!

    Andy Whing, Claus Jorgensen...........errr.........

    Realistic good signings.

    Nice idea but a champ club will take him

    New signings soon

    Mowbray likes him so thats good enough for me to be honest, club have offered him a deal and i don't imagine he could do much better than us currently so seems pretty nailed on that he will sign. Not the most exciting signing in the world but decent left backs are hard to come by and he has the...

    New signings soon

    Stokes is not our player though so would think he will be the first signing as others have said.

    How old were your kids....

    I think its just because i never went through that experience. My Dad's not a football fan so he never took me to a game. He dragged me to the speedway, to F1 races, MotoGP, BTCC and any other motorsport you can think of but never the football.
