Bedford Town can confirm that Nathan Abbey has stepped down from his role as manager of the football club. The decision followed extensive talks with the club last night, after the disappointing run of form the Eagles have been on since the end of November.

Everyone at the Bright Management Eyrie would like to thank Nathan for his hard work and commitment to the club over the last eighteen months. We wish him all the best for the future.

The club will be making a statement about the recruitment process for a new manager, later this week.
