    RIP Bobby. Would never have got anywhere near a professional football team in this day and age. Sadly.

    Four years ago, the Club lost one of its greatest legends.

    My childhood hero, 200% bradford, always gave everything, the level of comitment and desire to play for the club who pays your wage and the fans by our current lot is missing sadly from far too many of them.

    "2016 mate I attended his funeral.

    We had some great memories with regards his playing career and his off the pitch antics at times true City legend.

    And a couple of goals, including an injury time equaliser, that snatched the point City needed to confirm promotion in the final home match of the 1981/82 season.

    2 years already? Time just flies by.

    Interesting to see pic with Eric Nixon.
    After the Hillsborough tragedy back in
    1980 I wanted to do something and I had
    some framed action pics of the Liverpool
    2nd leg and Bobby was prominent in one
    pic and I thought it might be good to give
    the pics to the players in them. I saw
    Eric outside the offices and gave them to him
    saying if the players wanted them and gave
    a contribution to Hillsborough then I would be
    well pleased.

    I hope Bobby got the pic of him and was a good
    memory for him.

    RIP Bobby,you were and always will be a legend for
    the fans at this club.

    I know the man's a legend around these parts, but why the bloody hell would it be in the Manure Museum :confused: even if their ex kit man snaffled it.
    £900 a bit steep for me thought & a real pity that its not been on view at Valley Parade .
    Would be wonderful to have it 'Come home'
    Good luck to whomever divvies up for it
