Bury were expelled by the English Football League on Tuesday, with the 134-year-old club losing its place after a failed takeover.
Per Sky Sports, the EFL issued a statement to explain why it had taken the decision:
"The EFL Board met earlier this evening and, after a long and detailed discussion, determined that Bury FC's membership of the English Football League be withdrawn after the deadline passed at 5pm today (Tuesday, August 27) without a successful resolution.
"Despite repeated requests to its owner Mr Dale over a sustained period of time, the necessary evidence in respect of how the club would meet its financial commitments, has simply not been provided and, as a result, attentions turned to securing new ownership at the club.
