Signed. Hope it all works out well for them.
Can we not arrange a collection at our up coming matches? £1 from supporters could raise £50,000 plus
And could be a massive help
Signed. All the best to Bury, hope they survive and prosper.
Seeing the Lady "Handcuffed" to the Building, makes me fcukin ashamed, I did not do the same, when it was US!
PS; I will "Sign" but believe, We should and could, do More!
What's the story with the owner? Why don't he sell?
No worries mate, most of us thought Charles green was the answer, know better now,Signed.
I also take back my previous comment about Steve Dale wanting the best for the club. I was wrong @acousticblue
A post from one of our lads:After our friendly last year, I’m absolutely devastated for the Bury fans. Brought an absolutely brilliant support to Ibrox and they don’t deserve this.
Hoping beyond hope that something can be done before tomorrow.
KindSigned. Hope it all works out well for them.
Seems that the owner is in talks with someone just now, some Bury fans seem concerned about it maybe being the last owner of port vale, think his name was smurfwaite or something like that, seems he's another del boy, looking like it's going to the wirewhats the latest here, getting awfully close to the deadline
You're welcome to your opinion, but it's about the fans, that's their club and it means As much to them as Rangers do to us, they know they won't ever win major trophies, but still choose to follow them, to me that deserves a chance to be saved, if you look back on players they have had in the past it's actually quite impressiveHeard lots of this on SSN/TalkSPORT etc and I am of the mind that there are too many small, non-entity clubs in the UK and that some need to got the way of Airdrie/Clydebank in England to make them sit up and realise that the economy they are playing in is a false bubble. Perhaps if Bury/Bolton/Coventry go bust then the games administrators will sit up and take note. I’m not sure what these lower league clubs bring to the professional game - probably similar to our lower division clubs. Not going to win a cup and not going to produce superstars. Perhaps reforming as a semi pro/junior team mightn’t be the worst think for clubs such as this.
I bear no ills towards Bury specifically, I just don’t understand the desire to have them ‘saved’ - move on and see what the future holds.
And before anyone wrongly draws a comparison to our plight of several years ago - think of the stature between both clubs.

I know but we need to look forwards not back - the game is progressing at an alarming rate professionally and it isn’t for everyone.You're welcome to your opinion, but it's about the fans, that's their club and it means As much to them as Rangers do to us, they know they won't ever win major trophies, but still choose to follow them, to me that deserves a chance to be saved, if you look back on players they have had in the past it's actually quite impressive
I don't agree with that. The Bury fans will think of their club as we do of ours.
It's like Real or Juve looking at us going "they'll never win the CL. %^*& them"
The clubs still have to exist or there's no league cup / Scottish cup to compete for.
If there's an issue with money not being spread about and an inability to compete, that's not on Bury. Just as the elite CL clubs being untouchable as far as we're concerned isn't "fair" either.
Similarly, if there's issue with the structure of the leagues and it could be better organised, that's not the fans concern.
It's like Real or Juve looking at us going "they'll never win the CL. %^*& them"
It’s absolutely nothing like this at all - and a really bizarre statement to equate elite CL football to domestic football.

Junior/non-league cups compete in this at present, so again you are totally wide if the mark.

You are equating apples with oranges chief, and are completely wide of the mark. But let’s forget that.
Why is Bury’s history worthy of being retained? What do they add to the professional game? In my opinion, it’s all about levels and they need to find theirs which doesn’t appear to be in the EFL any more.
We've already set one up but the donation so far is pathetic:Someone setup a GoFundMe or similar. I'd happily pony up a few quid towards saving them and getting them out of the hands of that Parasite. Got a soft spot for Bury after last season and watching the Rossiter loan with interest.
Guessing you are enjoying an early beverage for this weekend - and fair play to you. If Bury die - a few thousand people may miss them for a short while, they may also follow their new guise if they reform non-league. However - your ‘football is football’ comment is shown as being false by a few posts further down from yours above describing the ‘pitiful’ gofundme donations.Nah, football is football.
What is anyone outwith the EPL in England's worth to the game? Let's just have the shiny things and not bother with the "shite" that populates the lower leagues.
In fact, just go one step further and remove that and have the best teams (as you see it) playing in a locked CL and let everyone else collapse.

Football has evolved and people aren’t as interested in the history/romance/sentimentality these days.
Have a smashing weekend bud!
With respect, you don't know the full facts. The Go Fund Page at £6000 is poor granted, however, it needs to be taken into context, as it was too vague and nobody really knew what it was for, e.g. buy Dale out, pay for Administration, etc.Guessing you are enjoying an early beverage for this weekend - and fair play to you.

A friendly perhaps? Legends game?, Or as a few on here said even fans at home games donating a poundWe've already set one up but the donation so far is pathetic:
https://www.gofundme.com/f/save-bury-football-club
We need millions. Thanks though.
The vast majority of not just us but fans all over feel for you guys, as I said before you don't go to games believing that the fa cup is there for the taking, you go because it's your club win lose or draw, Bury to you is like Rangers to us, unthinkable that anything should happen to them, keep believing,With respect, you don't know the full facts. The Go Fund Page at £6000 is poor granted, however, it needs to be taken into context, as it was too vague and nobody really knew what it was for, e.g. buy Dale out, pay for Administration, etc.
In the meantime, we have also raised 1000s and 1000s of pounds to pay unpaid staff.
In addition, we also have a 'Buy our Bury' pledge scheme, which has pledges totalling £250,000.
Further, all we're asking, is for our psychopath of a chairman to sell our club, that he paid a pound for, hardly paid any bills since and is known to have taken money out, including claiming a fabricated £3,600,000 director's loan.
Anyway, you're obviously into the survival of the fittest, so enjoy Kilmarnock & Co going bust over the coming years and being left with a 6 team Scottish League (Rangers, Celtic, Hibernian, Hearts, Aberdeen and a merged Dundee team).
No need to reply, because we will never, ever agree...people (grown men) are in tears down here.
