Curzon extend hand of friendship to Bury Fans

Curzon Ashton are offering Bury FC season ticket holders FREE entry to their home fixture against Kidderminster Harriers on Saturday.

The offer comes in the wake of Bury's financial troubles, in which the club has yet to play a league fixture this season due to an EFL sanction.

The Shakers have been deducted 12 points for entering into a company voluntary arrangement and have been issued with a notice of withdrawal of membership by the EFL. 

A statement on behalf of the EFL read; 

“The EFL board has suspended Bury FC’s fixture with Gillingham on Saturday 17 August 2019 as it has not received the outstanding evidence required by today’s 9am deadline.

“The EFL has made it clear that it cannot continue suspending fixtures indefinitely and the deadline of 23 August for withdrawal of membership remains in place. However, the EFL remains committed to working with the club to try and find a successful conclusion."

Despite the troubles at Gigg Lane, Bury fans can take advantage of Curzon's offer as the Nash look to extend their unbeaten start to the season to five games. They are currently third in the table on eight points.

All you have to do to take advantage of the offer is present your season ticket at the turnstile. Last season's season tickets also permit free entry.
