SUMMER 2028 The summer of 2028 provided a lot of cardboard boxes being moved around Bedford. Everyone packed their belongings from The New Eyrie and moved across town to the brand new Bedford Stadium, where everyone had a bigger and not rotting office. Also moving into Bedford were the following... Gauthier Dupont - another French defender coming from Sedan on a free. Darren McDiarmid - a former England U21 defender joining on a free from Bristol City. Jeroen Jansen - a talented Turkish international midfielder joining on a free from Birmingham. Walter Grossi - a former Italian U19 goalkeeper arriving from Catania on a free. Hugo Gomes - a former Portuguese U21 defensive midfielder from Chamois on a free. Nuno Silva - a former Portugal U19 midfielder on a free from Guingamp. Marco Domenghini - Italian winger from Perugia on a free. Zoumania Courteille - a deadly French striker from Bordeaux joining on a free. Romain Delahaye - a French midfielder from Sochaux... on a free again. Anthony Dupuis - A French left winger joining on a free from Metz. David Park - a former Scotland U21 striker joining from Hearts on a free. The bookies obviously believe in Bird as a manager to get Bedford promoted. Tottenham are favourites at 6-4, with Bedford just behind at 7-4, along with Millwall and Crystal Palace. But the main headline on the back pages is this one... BIRD THE GREAT DANE Bedford fans heartbeats skipped several beats today as the Danish FA announced their manager as the new Denmark international manager. Bird was quick to dispense any rumours of him leaving Bedford Stadium by stating he'd be staying at Bedford as well as managing Denmark in their bid to reach the 2030 World Cup in Holland. |
