Big game for Bradford  I don't want us to lose, but I'd like to see them win the league ahead of Walsall and Vile. Swindon 2-2 Bradford Att: 8,432 (1,178 away) 12.30 ko, so in the pub early again

This thread make me think of Jake Young. Had to check whether he was still at Bradford - he went to Stevenage which I complete recall now I’ve read it.
28 games & 3 goals in all competitions so far this season.
He scored more than that for us - in one game - where he only played 74 minutes.

I like Bradford, the city and the stadium. Tough game obviously but a good measure of how far we've come. A win would be amazing to continue our positive run in to the end of the season but I will go for...
2-2 which would also be a very creditable result..

Charity kit looks good. Are Bradford wearing home kit then?
I would assume so. I take it we are wearing white shorts and socks to go with the white shirts as per 1969?

Bradford wear black shorts so will have to be white unless they wear a special kit themselves or their third kit all blue.

Coming over from Stroud. Two of us; old chums of Reg. We'll get the 9.30 train. Will we be able to get tickets in the morning or should I pop over to the ground on Friday morning. Advice welcomed. Didn't we beat Bradford City in the early rounds of the League Cup in 68-69?

Agree re Bradford. Like the club and they’ve done their time in the basement for sure. Be happy to see them go up.

Can't stand em personally. Massive superiority complex. Especially that BC fan who picks 10 best this and ten best that on YouTube. Small minded I may be but I hope we smash em

No issue with Bradford. They are a big club for this league, which I guess isn't surprising for a big city with only one team. Quite enjoyed the Doyle banter with them to be honest during the 19/20 season. Also despite all the shit thrown both ways over the years, there's been some good moments between the fan base...
Swindon fans raising the scarves during the Bradford fire minute silence at the end of the Di Canio season got a good reaction from them.
The Darby stuff too.
Id much rather they went up than Vale or Walsall. Obviously I'd rather we get 3 points and keep some momentum going for next season... but fuck Vale.

Bradford {the city and surrounding} will forever hold many memories for me personally, so despite it's largely unkempt look in several places, I can never feel any ill towards the place
I hope their Capital of Culture year does do some good for them and it's residents. It's famously cultural in people and also within the arts, yet often overshadowed by the ever sprawling metropolis of Leeds. Someday soon, the two places will merge and all the likes of Huddersfield, Halifax, Dewsbury, Wakefield, Pontefract and Castleford will get swallowed up into some Supercity status. Places like Bratfoot are important, so being culturally recognised should always be a thing and not forgotten
Back to footy, hope Town beat them of course but can only really see a loss. A score draw would be a fitting result though, and I'm sure matters bigger than football will come out as the only important winners. Both sides and fans showing absolute mutual respect for the Darby Rimmer MND Foundation

I haven't bought a footy shirt for three seasons - don't want to feed the crooks or pay part of Happy Hall's inflated salary - but I have purchased this new one, hope a good chunk goes to the DarbyRimmer Foundation
