FOOTBALL CLUB
Bury FC have been members of the Football League since 1894 and
have put together a history of which they have every right to be proud
of. Perhaps their most famous moments came in the FA Cup which they
won on two occasions in 1900 and 1903.
At present, their first team competes in League One and they
are based at Gigg Lane which has been their home since 1885.
They are led by Chairman Stewart Day who is supported by
Vice-Chairman Glenn Thomas and the club is looking
to progress under their guidance.
So far this season it would be fair to say
that their first team has not put together
the campaign that they would have
liked, having compiled a record
of twelve wins, ten draws and
nineteen defeats from their forty
one matches. This has left them
sitting in the bottom half of the
table with forty-six points on the
board.
They will now be looking
to put together a good run of
results in their remaining games
in order to pull away from the
relegation zone. This would allow
themselves time to build during the
off-season as they look to improve in
their 2017/18 campaign.
The club was recently boosted by the
news that they have reached agreement with
Goalkeeper Joe Murphy to extend his stay at the
club for an extra twelve months. Murphy has been
in superb form since joining in the January transfer window,
keeping seven clean sheets in eleven appearances.
Speaking to www.buryfc.co.uk after the signing was
announced, Manager Lee Clark said, “I am delighted to
have secured the services of Joe Murphy for next
season on a permanent basis. He has been an
impressive performer since I arrived at the
club in February and, coupled with his
attitude, desire and winning mentality,
it was important we secured his
services as soon as possible.
“Any successful team has a
strong spine so to get this signing
done makes me very happy, and I
am looking forward to continue to
work with Joe.”
Although it has been a difficult
season for Bury FC there is still
much to admire about the set up
that they currently have in place.
As long as they are able to pull away
from the relegation battle in their
upcoming matches they should be well
set up for a bright and successful future.
Everyone at Football Focus Magazine wishes
them the best of luck.
