  • "Eileen ..... what was I saying just a few months ago ? I was saying that the only way forward for Bury FC was if the current board tore up their contracts and resigned en-masse. With new directors, new ideas, fresh energy, increased enthusiasm and perhaps a bit of investment, things might change for the better. Have you realised that this is the only solution to the current drastic state of affairsEileen ? p.s. by an unwanted president ...... do you mean Robert Mugabe ?"

Sweeney tears up Bury contract

First published in Shakers Updates

BURY midfielder Peter Sweeney has torn up his contract and has left Gigg Lane by mutual consent.

The club confirmed on its website that the 28-year-old central-midfielder had decided to leave for personal reasons and had taken up a contract at League Two side AFC Wimbledon.

Sweeney arrived at Gigg Lane in August, 2010, and made a total of 95 appearances. He scored five times for the club, including last campaign’s goal of the season - a wonder strike at Walsall.

Youngsters Liam Boswell and Luke McCarthy have also left the club after their contracts were mutually cancelled.
