Falklands call-up for Bedfont Town squaddie

Posted by Nina Rossi on Oct 23, 08 04:55 PM in Clubs/societies

Bedfont Town are looking for a new keeper after army mechanic Dave Burton was called up for duty in the Falklands.

Burton will leave for a tour of duty in the Atlantic next month, where he will be working on building a new airport runway.

But Bedfont boss Jim Cushen doesn't know how long he'll be missing his custodian for, and is keen to get a replacement in place.

However, Burton may have wished he was mixing it with the penguins already as he leaked seven goals on Saturday, with Bedfont going down 7-1 to Greens United in Middlesex County League Division Two.

Not only were Bedfont knocked off top spot, but lost the chance to set a new club record of nine games unbeaten in the process.

Any keepers keen to give it a go with Bedfont should call Jim on 07956 680262.

We'd like to hear from you.
