It’s 118 days since Bedford Blues were last in action at Goldington Road, so to say that the squad is champing at the bit for a return to the green, green grass of home as they take on Cambridge under the Friday night lights would be an understatement.
With plenty of comings and goings over the summer, the squad for Friday’s game will have an array of new faces including centre Oskar Hirskyj-Douglas who has penned a deal with the Blues following a successful summer trial. The former Wasps, Henley, Chinnor, Loughborough Students and England Sevens man is joined in the squad by fellow trialist Andrew Boye who starts at tight-head prop.
