After the high and terrific performance playing York City in the FA Cup, I returned to dig deeper into this Biggleswade FC Story. A club formed only in 2016, ran in such a brilliant way and holding its own at step 4 whilst creating amazing memories. A club formed from youth players to keep them together is a real unique story.
I speak with Chairman Jeremy Reynolds together with Ruth Reynolds, who both also have extensive knowledge of the Academy structure from parents perspective. Managers Dave Northfield and Mark Inskip describe how the story unfolded which deserves huge credit for the never give up approach.
Biggleswade played Leverstock Green in the Southern League Central at the shared ground of landlords Bedford Town FC. The game finished 3-3 with some great goals and good spells. We caught up with goal scorers Amir Hadi and Dan Carey-Evens. Dan has come away from a professional football environment and opens up about his feelings around trial games and coming to terms with being released. "I found it really tough". This is a must listen for all players and parents.
