Bury Players Consider Suing EFL as Club Captain Reveals He's Gone 7 Months Unpaid

Bury's players are considering legal action against the English Football League (EFL) for their decision to allow Steve Dale to take over the club.

The League One side were kicked out of the football league on Tuesday after Dale, who has confessed he has little interest in football and wasn't even aware that there was a club in Bury, ran the club into the ground, leaving players and staff without pay for months.

Led by club captain Neil Danns, The Daily Mail claims that a number of players are considering legal action against the EFL over 'negligence' due to their part in allowing Dale to take over the club in the first place.
