JUST a small word of praise to both Bury FC and the council for their speedy response to provide litter bins outside Gigg Lane stadium — it really is appreciated and hopefully will cut down on some of the litter in the area!

It’s now down to the fans to rally round and use these bins — home and away supporters, not forgetting FC United, their fans and visitors.

Surely it’s not too much to ask that anyone with burger cartons, pizza boxes, drink cans, coffee cups and the variety of packaging bought at local shops can keep their rubbish in their hands until they arrive at the ground, rather than using the streets as a tip! Come on fans — the council and the football club have done their jobs — it’s now down to you!
