Club career

Watford

Bonham signed a scholarship deal with Watford in June 2010,[4] but quickly signed his first professional contract three months later, having just turned 17.[5] Due to first team goalkeeper Scott Loach incurring a suspension,[6] Bonham received his first call up to the first team squad on 26 November 2011, when he was an unused substitute for a 0–0 Championship draw with Doncaster Rovers.[7] During the 2012–13 season, Bonham was an unused substitute on 12 occasions.[8] He made his only appearance for Watford on 4 May 2013, coming on as a substitute for goalkeeper Jonathan Bond after 24 minutes of the final game of the season against Leeds United, a 2–1 defeat.[9] Bonham was only included in the squad due to an injury sustained in the warm up by first-choice goalkeeper Manuel Almunia and was at fault for both Leeds' goals,[10] which cost Watford the chance of automatic promotion to the Premier League.[11] After the match, Watford manager Gianfranco Zola refused to blame Bonham for his actions.[12] Bonham was not called into the squad for Watford's unsuccessful playoff campaign.[8] On 7 June 2013, Watford announced that Bonham's contract would not be renewed and he was released by the club.[13]

Harrow Borough (loan)

On 18 February 2012, Bonham joined Isthmian League Premier Division side Harrow Borough on a one-month emergency loan deal.[6] He was joined at the club by Watford youth teammates Aaron Tumwa and Stephen Hamilton-Forbes. He made the first senior appearance of his career the same day, conceding two goals in a 2–2 draw with Bury Town.[14] On 14 March, the loan was extended by a further month.[15] He returned to Watford in April after he broke a bone in his hand during a 4–3 defeat to Canvey Island.[16][17] He made 9 appearances for the club and failed to keep a clean sheet.[14]

Brentford

On 12 June 2013, Bonham signed a two-year contract with League One side Brentford.[18] He made his debut for the club in a League Cup first round tie at home to Dagenham & Redbridge on 6 August, in which Brentford ran out 3–2 extra time winners.[19] His second appearance came in the following round away to Derby County, in which he endured a torrid evening as the home side cruised to a 3–0 lead before half time, eventually winning 5–0.[19] Bonham made his league debut on 7 September, coming off the bench against Bradford City after starting keeper David Button was sent off.[19] Described as a 'nightmare afternoon' in press reports,[20] he conceded four goals as Brentford lost 4–0.[21] Bonham spent much of the remainder of the season away on loan.[22]

A persistent shoulder injury suffered by Richard Lee saw Bonham serve as backup to David Button through the Bees' 2014–15 Championship campaign.[23][24] He signed a new three-and-a-half year contract on 2 January 2015 and celebrated his signing the following day with his first start of the season in an FA Cup third round match versus Brighton & Hove Albion.[23][25] He conceded two late goals as Brentford were knocked out after suffering a 2–0 defeat,[26] though winning the club's social media man of the match award proved to be a consolation.[27] It was his only appearance of the season.[28]

Bonham had a nightmare start to the 2015–16 season, conceding four goals on his sole appearance against Oxford United in the League Cup first round on 11 August 2015.[29] He again served as David Button's backup throughout the campaign.[30]

Arlesey Town (loan)

On 15 November 2013, Bonham joined Southern League Premier Division side Arlesey Town on loan until 2 January 2014.[22] He made his debut the following day in a 2–0 FA Trophy third qualifying round victory over Marlow.[31][32] He endured another nightmare afternoon in the following round, conceding five goals in a 5–1 defeat to Whitehawk on 30 November.[33][34] After four successive defeats and conceding 12 goals, Bonham helped Arlesey to three league wins in a row in December and at the end of the month, his loan was extended until the end of the 2013–14 season.[35] Bonham was recalled on 8 February 2014, after making 19 appearances.[36]

International career

Bonham won five caps for the Republic of Ireland U17 team in 2009 and 2010.[37]
