Bury FC have an incredibly rich and important history in English football. They are the typical story of a northern english town deeply connected with community, and whose success has often represented much more for the city. This summer, after owner Steve Dale failed to pay an outstanding tax bill, the club went under, losing its status in the English football league.
This is the story of Bury, how they went under, and what the town is doing to rebuild.
