    Like yourselves mum & dad took us to Blackpool annually in our younger days, on the Monday night Blackpool were at home to Leeds so along we went paid on the gate and enjoyed a master class from Allan Ball who put Leeds to the sword winning 4 - 0 on the night.

    Love the old photos of Bradford, just look at the railway infrastructure that was there.
    Just the 2 lines on the left remain.

    Never stood in the Midland Road stand, started in a junior area (just off the left hand side of where the players come out) then the Bradford End, the paddock until that tragic day, after the rebuild we had a few seasons in the new Midland Road stand then after the 2nd administration over into the Sunwin where we still are.

    I was only a kid but may favourite places were Smiths for pork pies and Pie Toms where you could eat pie and peas with the City players.
    My mum worked in the market stall opposite Toms selling nylons, I was there often
    Great memories

    How many players can you identify, @Bronco@Bronco?

    Jim Lawlor, Colin Roberts, Peter and David Jackson, Malcolm Devitt, John Reid, Derek Stokes, Tom Flockett, David Boyle, Mitchell Downie (part hidden), George Mulholland, Bobby Webb, George Stewart, Malcolm Currie. I think that leaves two I can't identify.

    Nah it will be from a light aircraft/helicopter.

    On this aerial photograph of VP taken in the 1930’s you can see some of the chimney’s none would be tall enough. The location of the shot is closer to the railway line.

    Here you go. Never seen this one before. Looking from the Bradford End towards the Kop, part of the old Mai Stand on the left. Can you work out the year?
