MATCH REPORT V LONDON SCOTTISH

Two games into the Greene King IPA Championship season and Bedford Blues are sitting pretty at the top of the table after they picked up another bonus point win thanks to a 44-26 victory over London Scottish.

While many may have been focussing on the return of former Blues to Goldington Road, Bedford set about the task at hand and once again secured a bonus point before the interval thanks to tries from Michael Le Bourgeois, Howard Packman, Lee Dickson and Rich Lane before Packman and debutant Jack Nay dotted down after the interval and Harry Sheppard kicked 14 points.

MATCH REPORT V RICHMOND

Bedford Blues kicked off their Greene King IPA Championship campaign with a bonus point 7-36 win over Richmond on Saturday evening.

Seven months ago, on their last visit to Richmond Athletic Ground, Bedford were on the wrong end of a 49-26 score line which left the entire squad feeling, well, blue.

This time though, it was all smiles as a dominating attacking performance in the first half was complimented with a strong defensive display in the second to ensure that demons were banished and the Blues got off to the best possible start.
