A back four of " Wheelie Bins " eh?

If that's true then Tufty should start thinking of getting in touch with a couple of Skip company's in the JTW.
 



That's a nice story but it's not entirely true. They get their "Shakers" nickname from a previous Chairman who said, before a Cup final at Wembley, "We're going to shake them up".
 
The best fans in the land will contribute to anxiety and frustration by offering little or no vocal support, as usual. Then they'll moan...

After the excitement of the Cup win the Blades focused on the League for 1899-1900 and they got off to an unbelievable start going on an unbeaten run of 22 league matches equaling Preston’s run in their 1889 double winning season. Everton, one of the top sides in the League, were stuffed 5-0 on the opening day at Bramall Lane. By mid January United had faced every team in the Division at least once and were top of the League, four points clear with a game in hand over second place Aston Villa. The Blades faced Bury on January 20th needing only to avoid defeat to break Preston’s record. Bury went all out to beat United and the score was 1-1 when Fred Priest went off injured. With United down to ten men Bury snatched a winner. Afterwards Foulke said “We’ve not only been beaten; we’ve been badly shaken” and to this day Bury have been known as ‘The Shakers’.

This from the official burryfc website:

Why are Bury called the Shakers?

It's the most asked question that the club receives, from young to old, they all want to know exactly why are Bury Football Club called the Shakers?

So here it is, the definitive answer

"It was the 1892 Lancashire Cup Final on 23 April that the clubs nickname of 'The Shakers' first came into being. Mr. J T Ingham was Chairman cum team manager at the time and it is this gentleman who is alleged to have been questioned about his team's ability to beat the supposedly stronger opponents that day. It has been recorded down the years since that Mr. Ingham retorted as follows:-

'We shall shake 'em, in fact, we are the Shakers'

And that was seized upon by the press of the day and since then, the club have been known as 'The Shakers.'

Some reports suggest that Mr. Ingham may have actually uttered the phrase at the semi-final game against Everton, but what is certain, is that Bury Football Club's nickname came into existence during the famous Lancashire Senior Cup success of 1892."

So if somebosdy asks, now you know.....
 
To be fair. I expected us to lose to chesterfield just because they were doing terrible. In reality, we should absolutely destroy bury. Im going for blades 5-0 bury.
 
Im same Bury game worrys me strangely, should be straight forward 3pts as bury have taken i believe 1pt in 2 mths since they last beat mk dons & conceded 14 goals in last 3 games
 
Saturday showed how fine margins can be. The most important member of the squad tonight is Wilder. If he has the players perfectly prepared mentally we will win. Can't stress how important the right attitude is tonight.

And that Sean is where I get my confidence from, Chris wilders attitude.
 
I said before the match on Saturday our biggest danger is complacency especially during this run against teams near the bottom of the table

If you would have told me at anytime last season that I would be typing the above, I would have thought you to be pissed
 
A 2-1 win seems a poor return for 30 shots against 5 and 10 against 3 of those on target, add to that to 20 corners to 1 against and a penalty, I think we can put last Saturdays result down as a bad day at the office It happens but not that often.

Having said that.........:rolleyes:
 
in previous years these were the Banana Skins, we have got through a couple this year and optimism is growing but I think we will also look at these games and think we will slip up, We have turned a corner but until we have won all the banana skin games I think we will always have a bit of bad feeling, its just the blades way....

So, are we going to win tonight?
 
It's going to take a successful end to a season to banish our demons
We've had 6 seasons of losing these kind of games ,I don't think we will lose this one but these things happen,every year in every division the form team loses out to the team rock bottom it's how you bounce back from it
 
I like the saying 'old habits die hard' try as I might I just can full trust some of em not to just kick and back relax because they think they've achieved everything when in fact they have achieved nothing.

Like if you take your cheating girlfriend back ... you can't ever fully trust her again.
 
I can understand why we may become complacent but have we actually seen any sign of this? I've been away for most of this month (so happy to be corrected), but prior to that I can't recall it creeping in.

They will almost certainly pack the defence so an early goal would be nice to open it up a bit and get their heads to drop.

The longer it goes without us leading the more the frustration could develop.

Going for a nervy one nil win.

Just call me Nostradamus.

Didn't bank on it being that Nervy though!

Like so much that emanates from Walthamstow, this is false.

Bury FC's website states:

Few Bury supporters question Day’s ambition, but a series of county court judgments for unpaid bills and an appearance in the High Court in London last week, where Bury faced a third winding-up petition for unpaid tax this year (the bill was paid and the case dismissed, once again) has not sat well with some fans.

Bury’s most recent accounts showed a loss of £2.9 million for the year to May 31, 2015. The amount owed to creditors rose from £3.4 million to more than £5 million — £3.7 million of which had been secured, and there continues to be a series of high-interest internet-based loans taken out against their only large asset, Gigg Lane.
