BURY Football Club have commissioned a painting of Gigg Lane by noted artist Peter Watson.

The game to be portrayed is of the traditional Lancashire derby between Bury and Rochdale that was played on Saturday, December 21 last year.

The large original painting is to hang in the Bury FC boardroom, however, a number of high quality prints will be produced for sale to supporters.

To offset the cost involved in the venture local businesses are being given the opportunity to purchase a perimeter advertising board on the painting.

Exactly as in a full size board Peter will paint in any required artwork and it's a unique way for your company to be seen as loyal backers of Bury FC for posterity.

Cost of each board is £100 with every advertiser to receive a magnificent framed copy of the print.

Any businesses who wish to get involved or require further details about this venture are asked to contact the Bury FC commercial department on 0161-705 2144.
