Table of Contents

The Shakers will be hoping to rebound on the road mid-week as we welcome Avro FC after a disappointing 2-1 loss to Workington at the weekend.

Defeat at the weekend means we currently sit 11th in the table, albeit with multiple games in hand.

Our opponents currently sit six points above in sixth, having lost 1-0 to Cleethorpes Town away at the weekend.

A familiar foe for Bury fans, Avro were promoted via play-offs last season after falling two points short of our 90 points tally.

In Opposition – Avro

The club was founded in 1936 in Failsworth, taking their name from the factory of aircraft manufacturer, Avro.

After winning their first silverware just four years later in the form of the Manchester County Cup, Avro joined the Manchester league in the 1954 season.

They were promoted to the Premier Division as Division One Champions in the 2004 season, a league which they won in the 2010/11 season.

In 2017, Avro were on the move, leaving behind their Failsworth home to move four miles down the road to Oldham.
