Bury Football Club's 125-year membership of the Football League ended in August 2019, when they were expelled from the EFL after not playing a game in the 2019-20 season. The club is also facing legal action for unpaid debts, brought by HM Revenue & Customs.
Today, the English Football League will consider a plea by Bury FC to be allowed back in to League Two in the 2020-21 season.
Bury FC supporters told us what it means to them to have been left without a team, and why they're determined to fight for something that "brings people together".

We are BBC Stories, a group of journalists making films, long and short, with the younger audience (18-24) in mind. The idea is to tackle issues which concern and impact this group of people. So think about anything from race and identity to mental health, money and much more.
