The ground is precisely what spiv football club owners are after.
Bury, if you can believe Dale, was bought off a property developer for £1 but the ground has a mortgage for £3.6m, apparently held by Capital Bridging Finance Solutions Limited.

Just hope that Bury Council make it as difficult as possible when the planning application for housing development on Gigg Lane is proposed. If not already done, first thing would be to make the ground an Asset of Community Value, and then designate it open space in the Local Plan.
