Andy Bond

Crewe Alexandra and Barrow

Bond was born in Wigan, Greater Manchester. He began his career at Crewe Alexandra, but never made a first-team appearance despite being a regular for the reserve team. He joined Conference North club Lancaster City in August 2005 on loan. Bond signed for Conference North club Barrow in 2006 after being released by Crewe. He impressed at Barrow and had a successful spell, helping the club achieve promotion to the Conference Premier through the play-offs in the 2007–08 season. In the 2009–10 season, Bond was a key player in Barrow's progression to the third round of the FA Cup, where they lost 3–0 to Sunderland and in their victorious FA Trophy campaign. During this season, Bond reportedly attracted the attention of several Championship clubs, including Leicester City, Peterborough and Preston North End. He left Barrow at the end of the 2009–10 season after turning down the offer of a new contract.

Colchester United

Bond signed for League One club Colchester United on 30 June 2010 on a two-year contract. Manager John Ward described him as "a marauding midfield player with a lot of energy and running work in him." He made his Football League debut on 7 August when starting in a 2–2 draw away to Exeter City. On 26 July 2011, Bond was involved in a nasty clash of heads with goalkeeper Mark Cousins during a friendly against local rivals Ipswich Town. With medical treatment required at the stadium, the match was abandoned by the match…
