Bury deny reports that Rangers are buying the club

Newspapers have reported that Scottish club Rangers are looking to buy League One side Bury so that they can play in England.

The Scottish club were bought last week by Charles Green for £6 million but are in liquidation. However, Bury have issued a statement refuting the claims:

Whilst investment into Bury Football Club is always welcome, any offer of investment will only be viewed at taking the club forward in its only one guise possible -based in the town of Bury, and as Bury Football Club.

The directors of Bury FC place the integrity and morality of the club, and football as a whole, way above and beyond any possible financial gain, and as such wish to reassure all Shakers fans of this fact
