    Wow. So now what? I don't understand this. So that's it?? 125 years up in smoke. Wow. Shameful 😡
  • @wrongcheese
    This team beat Man City in 1998 shame to see it go

    First rangers and now bury . This is just sad. Football is corrupted with money . All the top clubs signing players for 60-220m pounds when some clubs can't even get free transfers. Coming from Mallorca and a rcd Mallorca fan

  • @paulgray7014
    Can sympathize with Bury being a Leeds fan let down by greedy people feel for the fans :(
  • @rmkyt7022
    all the history just flushed down the toilet this is disgraceful my suggestion is just have a fan owned club.

    From an Ipswich Town Fan. My heart goes out to all the Bury fans going though an unspeakable reality. 130 years of existence only to be closed in a blink of an eye. Their loyal fans made Bury football club what is is, not a tinpot millionaire. I am hopeful that with a continued support, a new team will rise from the ashes in the very near future. The football club needed more time to find a suitable owner who loves Bury football club. Bury is a club who play good football, who beat all the odds last season getting promotion, and have won the FA Cup. But sadly because of money and poor management the club is no more! devastating.... What has happened to Bury, will happen to other clubs in the future no doubt. So what does the future of English league football look like? Will it consist of Premier League under 21 or B teams to make up the numbers? (Which would be a travesty) Who will be next, and can anything be done to stop this ever happening again? Let's be honest, without money where would Man City be now? Since 2008 Man City have spent £1.4 billion on over 70 players. Without the financial backing they would be in exactly the same position as Bury right now. I hope Bury can come back somehow, so their beloved fans can support THEIR TEAM once more with pride 😥

    I'm a Sheffield Wednesday fan and I wouldn't wish this upon any club. Cheers for 201 likes 😁😁

    Why are we getting blamed, it’s the EFL’s fault, Man Utd tried to help’ but their support was blocked by he EFL for some stupid reason
  • @basedale
    I'm an American who's always loved football since I was 4. Some people will never nderstand the passion we have for these clubs and watching this truly breaks my heart. Long live Bury🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 <3
  • @babs2800
    I promoted this team to the Premier League in Fifa 2007 :) And then made it the top club in Europe...yeah...memories...

  • @user-ql5sl3js7d
    As a Liverpool fan,I was disappointed about Bury FC just expelled.125 years of history over. It was my first time to see a team expelled because I was born in 2005. I hope there won't another team will expelled in the future.
  • @huzzy3989
    Yes this is sad and it shouldn’t have happened but why mention the Manchester Clubs . We have nothing to do with Bury and we aren’t obligated to help them anymore than the London clubs are.
  • @link6412
    I don't get it, they should not be expelled. We should bail then out considering we (taxpayer) bail out useless banks and businesses all the time, at least these clubs bring joy to their towns/cities.
  • @bestrafung2754
    Clubs being liquidated is always sad to see. Stuff like this is unacceptable. I'm a Manchester City fan, so I obviously don't have to worry, but i still find stuff like this very sad, especially when it's a big club like Bury with a very long history. I never want this to happen to any club, not even Manchester United or Liverpool! I'm happy to see that Bolton have been saved. Hopefully there is still some hope for Bury and no club ever has to be managed poorly and forced to go bust by an owner who doesn't care for football.
