Anthony Bardon (born 19 January 1993) is a footballer who currently plays as a central midfielder for Lincoln Red Imps, and Gibraltar.
Bardon attended high school at Birdville High School in North Richland Hills, Texas, United States. He played for the school's soccer team before graduating in 2011. After high school, Bardon played one year of college soccer for the Greyhounds of Eastern New Mexico University. In his only season with the team, he tallied three goals and four assists in seventeen matches.
Born in south east London, Bardon spent his youth career at Tooting & Mitcham United before moving to Bromley in 2013. Despite this, he failed to start and moved with reserve team manager Keith Bird to Cray Wanderers early in the season. In winter he moved to Gibraltar to play for Manchester 62 and put in a number of impressive performances, becoming a fixture in the starting XI. On 24 July 2014 he moved to league champions Lincoln Red Imps. With Lincoln, Bardon appeared in four matches in the club's 2015–16 UEFA Champions League qualifying campaign and scored a goal in the first round against FC Santa Coloma of Andorra.
In January 2016, it was announced that Bardon was released from his contract with Lincoln early after he received an offer from a club in the United States. That club was later revealed to be Saint Louis FC of the United Soccer League. It was reported that Bardon was set to join up with Sheffield F.C. of the English Northern Premier League on a short-term basis to gain match fitness before the start of the 2016 USL season. Bardon made a total of 34 appearances, tallying 4 goals, in the Gibraltar Premier Division between his time with Manchester 62 and Lincoln Red Imps. Bardon made his Northern Premier League debut for Sheffield as a start in a 0–2 defeat to Leek Town F.C. on 26 January 2016. He was named Man of the Match for his performance. After unsuccessfully seeking a professional contract, Bardon returned to the Red Imps in July. He played in the club's shock 1-0 first leg victory over Celtic in the 2016–17 UEFA Champions League qualifiers.
