BLETCHLEY PARK & BUCKINGHAM TOWN FC...

Bletchley Park & Buckingham Town

A bleak autumn night at Bletchley Park:
World War Two and blackout regulated,
But work must go on regardless,
In decoding the German Enigma…

A stark October evening at Manor Fields
And Buckingham Town demonstrated 
Their offensive abilities regardless,
At the Irish centre, Bletchley, an enigma…

A fast, attacking non-league soccer team,
Exiled in Bletchley, surely frustrated?
Yet they powered to victory regardless,
Though the venue is their own enigma…

It looked strangely bleak at Manor Fields & somehow stark too. Buckingham played in an enigma of a stadium, in a town where the important Enigma decoding took place during World War 2.

Calling it home for the Bucks is seemingly an enigma too…
