in August 2000 and played 3 pre-season matches for Sunderland against Fortuna Sittard,[3] ASV Apeldoornse Boys[4] and SC Heerenveen[5] respectively.

Bardon then moved to En Avant Guingamp to remain there until January 2004, when he was transferred to Le Havre AC.

With the team, he played in the UEFA Cup 2005-06, notably scoring a goal against AJ Auxerre in Levski's 2–1 loss and being controversially sent off by referee Mike Riley in the first leg against FC Schalke 04 in the quarter-finals.

In the group stage, they earned their first point following a 0–0 away draw with Werder Bremen, then got their first win beating Panathinaikos FC 3–1 while Hawar Mulla Mohammed became the first Iraqi player to score in the UEFA Champions League, although they lost to Inter Milan 1–0 at San Siro, they drew 3–3 in GSP Stadium.

In their 5th Champions League game, Anorthosis had a chance to make it to the knock-out stage if they would have won against Werder Bremen.

Inter (who had already qualified for the next stage) lost 1–0 to Bremen, meaning that Anorthosis finished fourth – missing out on a consolation UEFA Cup place.

In the 2009/2010 season, despite a couple of bad games and results, Levski qualified for the UEFA Europa League after finishing 3rd in the final ranking.

[8] After Bardon was officially released from Levski, on 10 June 2010 he signed a one-year contract with French 3rd division club Étoile Fréjus Saint-Raphaël.
