A place to post your Bradford City related pictures old and new

Full house.

 

Even though i've see this pic a few times I love it, very evocative...

 

Nostalgia, great

 

Not what it was though

 

The wife has bee sorting box's full of old pictures out and came accross this.

 

50p for a programme, jeez they've gone up since I last bought one for 3d ...

 

Is it true your middle name's Ebenezer.

 

What on earth gives you that idea...?
I'm not tight just a wee bit thrifty...

 

If only prices had stayed the same

 

Them were the days mate, when you could roll up any ground pay on the gate no questions asked, remember many years ago we had a fixture at Stockport called off because of fog, so we jumped on the train and went to watch Manchester City's game.

 

That was '72 against Man U. Less than quid for the best seats.

 

Bit of a collectors item that
I collect old programmes back to the 30s and that is one of the rarer ones
Auctioned mine to benefit the Burns Unit
Was a tidy amount

 

As I said mate if it hadn't been for our lass finding something to do (she cant stop and relax) I would not have even known I'd bought one that day, I've a box full of the news of that day and I'd have thought if I'd bought one it would have been in amongst them.

 

Two old City players who also played for Manchester City prior to joining Bradford City, any names ?.

 

Around 50 quid on Ebay currently. I've ummed and arhhed about getting one and putting it in a frame, but not sure its appropriate really. Bit of history though.

 

That's about right I think I got 80 for mine but as it benefitted the burns unit it fetched a higher price
All sorts of things reported on the net about this programme really not worth repeating on here
personal preference whether to frame it or not yes it is history but not something I would do

 

In the 80's a mates dad took me to old Trafford to watch them against Liverpool. No tickets, just paid into the paddock when we got there.

Can't imagine thay happening now!

 

I used to go with my parents to Blackpool for the illuminations every year.
If Blackpool were at home we would just turn up to watch 1st division football, remember seeing at least Man U and Fulham there.
Rushed back to our B&B one year to see City had lost 6-0 at Rochdale.

 

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.

 

Valley Parade along with the power station and the rickety bridge we crossed from the "Fox & Goose"
