Looks like we have our City back.

Fantastic spirit amongst the group and GB bouncing around like a fool leading the way.

Lets hope his dancing like that again come the end of the season.

 

Anyone who feels the need to sour the occasion is completely out of touch with reality.

 

FFS, Liverpool game, Cricket world cup, British Grand Prix all on the same day and all clashing, Dam

 

4.30am start tomorrow, arrive Bradford approx 8.30am. Park car at hotel and short train ride from Low moor stn into city center, few beers and what should be a very special occasion at Valley Parade, ''Stephen Darby Baby''

 

When Bolton and City staff do the Distance for Darbs walk, are we meant to only applaud City staff?

LOL @brisbanebantams

 

I quite enjoyed this afternoon. I thought Tyler French looked very composed and certainly wasn't overawed by the size of the crowd. Riley impressed as well, as did Nortei Nortey. Both of our keepers made some good saves.
No way was it a penalty, I thought the foul on Donaldson was at least a foot outside the area, but Doyle buried the penalty very well.
It was good to see Darby and the fantastic reception for him and Rimmer. I was very impressed that James Milner's foundation presented a £30,000 donation to the Darby Rimmer Foundation and another £10,000 to the MND Association. A fantastic gesture.

Edit: I forgot to mention Palmer who played very well first half.

So you don’t know why he left, if he returned or anything but think he should leave.

Strange

 

Do what you want but just for now take a day off eh...?

 

I was in the Kop too and I only saw Liverpool shirted fans cheer and clap. Great banter between the groups and guess what . . . football and the Darby Rimmer Foundation was the winner. It's only a game, some things are more important than the game and it was a friendly with the CL winners !

 

There is no reason to take that attitude with him to be honest, everybody knows the situation at the club last season and how players hated being there, he said himself that the whole club has changed and how he is enjoying being back, as for the reason he left today i don't know and by the sound of it neither do you, so i suggest backing off until you know the reason why.

 

There are some goals you have to admire such as the one Paul Scholes scored from a Beckham corner in our premiership days

 

I have no real desire to discuss the merits of whether Liverpool would play their exact champions league team in a friendly at Valley Parade but if you do then knock yerself out. I can't even guarantee that the friendly will be played although i have heard from a reliable source that it will.
All that interests me is that if it does to take place then no matter what team Liverpool might/will send to Valley Parade, the ground will be packed for what will/would be a momentous occasion to see one of the most popular names in world football ,whose name carries the title of champions league winners 2019/20, send a squad of players to benefit such a great cause as Stephen Darby. That is if it does take place, which i guess might do.

 

My point is more about Stephen Darby. Does it really matter who plays, if it even happens?

 

Not really. 15000 ST holders, plus 5000 Lpool fans in Midland road, only leaves 4/5000 spare. If it was two per ST there would be some loyal fans missing out, due to 'Liverpool fans' who live in the area buying tickets. It's a very fair and the best way IMO.

 

Clubs have policies dealing with a whole manner of issues, including Disability. Making sure that we make all reasonable efforts to allow suitable access and avoiding Disability Discrimination are at the centre of such policies.

The clubs policy is here; https://www.bradfordcityfc.co.uk/fans/disabled-supporters/

The club fully supports free tickets for carers to allow and encourage as many Disabled supporters as possible to attend.

 

If one qualifies for DLA at the higher or medium rate, which entitles you to a free carer, then according to a doctor the disabled person WOULD BENEFIT from having the supervision of a carer. I'd rather take the doctor and governments advice over a couple of fans who think I'm using it as a 'freebie' even though the disabled person in question has spent money travelling up and down for many a year, but some reason I still have to justify myself.

 

Ticket sales nearing 12,000.

Seating plan removed from Online Ticketing site due to a technical issue - back up soon.

Tickets for Liverpool end go on sale Monday, and then on general sale 26th June.

All those who want a ticket will get one. Forecasted ticket sales are still circa 22k.
