    Real
    I thought that was Tony Clegg that went in goal. Whoever it was our defence didn't let Whitehurst get anywhere near our stand in keeper.

    Jones… I was at Colchester , I’m sure it was his debut. I’m sure he dived over a shot at goal . Flapped his arms or something my BH could have saved .
    Just found it

    Yes, remember Woody. Wasn’t he a survivor of the Munich plane crash?

    I think Sam Walker has the ability to become my favourite.

    Imagine if we'd had him in his prime, great goal keeper, that's Peter Downsborough not Pat Liney.
    I'm with @Ulysses S Grant@Ulysses S Grant Lewis doesn't figure in my top 10.

    I think it was the night game that was beamed back to Valley Parade £10 on the night to watch it in the McCall suite, didn't we lose 2 - 0 on the night, we waited all day in anticipation then some of the large screens went down ?.

    Wow Harry Roberts that name goes back a bit, although he didn't play in goal for Bradford City he may have played in goal for HM Prisons at one time.

    It certainly was a Tuesday night , because we got stuck in rush hour traffic about 15 miles from the ground and only got there about 10 mins before k/off.
