    I haven't fact checked this so I'm prepared to be corrected but a mate has told me that we as a club are 121 years old today.

    Many Happy Returns Bradford City.....if true.

    Bradford City came into being as a result of a succession of meetings, so picking a particular formation date is a bit subjective. I believe the 29 May 1903 date is when Manningham FC voted to abandon Rugby Football, leaving Association Football as the Club's only professional sport.

    However, one date that is clear is that Bradford City were elected to the Football League at the Football League's Annual General Meeting on 25 May 1903.

    Harry Gration wouldn’t have become the iconic global broadcaster that he turned in to without her.

    It probably will. Strangely just been looking at fares for the October visit. Who knows , maybe @Interested Bystander@Interested Bystander will have figured out the Judith Stamper/Harry Gration (gone too soon) connection for us Wessies. Happy birthday IB.
