Bury FC have issued a statement after it was confirmed a takeover bid by C&N Sporting Risk collapsed ahead of their expulsion deadline at 5pm today.
The Shakers had their EFL deadline extended on Friday as they were offered extra time to resolve their situation after an offer from C&N Sporting Risk had emerged.
But after due diligence, extra issues regarding 'the ground and the overall financial state of the club' led to the analytics company not pursuing the purchase any further.
The EFL have since confirmed the collapse of the deal in a statement and explained an update on the club's future will be made in due course.
In the meantime, Bury themselves have now issued a statement directly aimed at the club's fans.
"Bury Football Club would like to issue the following statement to supporters," a statement read.
"We understand that this is a difficult and emotional time for all supporters given the recent news regarding a potential takeover.
"While the Club are working hard looking at other potential avenues with other interested parties, we would like to remind supporters that no one should gain access to inside the stadium (unless authorised).
"CCTV is installed at Gigg Lane, and anyone damaging Club property or trespassing into the stadium itself will be identified and appropriately dealt with by the Police, who will have access to current and previous CCTV footage.
"We would like to urge supporters to remain patient and respectful for Club property."
