Club career

Bakens is a tall central defender who was born in Groesbeek and made his debut in professional football, being part of the De Graafschap squad in the 2001–02 season. He joined FC Volendam from RKC Waalwijk in 2008. He joined Sparta Rotterdam in June 2009[1]. In December 2009 Bakens left Sparta after a conflict about the way of working. In January 2010 he signed with FC Volendam until the end of the season.[2] At the end of the season, he signed with Swiss side St. Gallen.[3] After two seasons, Bakens returned to the Netherlands and signed with SC Cambuur,[4] with which he promoted to the Eredivisie. However, he decided to leave the champion as a free agent. In July 2013, he signed a one-year deal with his former team De Graafschap which plays in the Dutch Eerste Divisie. In June 2014, Bakens had to retire from professional football due to a chronic hip injury.

gollark: It's not enough (many electromagnets are needed) plus you need power to heat it.
gollark: The quarry draws lots, but on my SP world it could run at max speed fine on 10kRF/t. We don't actually need that, but I want fusion eventually, which needs much RF.
gollark: My design is 9x9x9, which means I'll need to set up autocrafting to make it conveniently.
gollark: I was thinking about making a new, bigger reactor design to run TBUox.
gollark: Ah. Yes.
