loopy juice that stuff

 

I think he means the traffic element after games. There's been a few instances of cars accelerating through a dispersing crowd and I agree, we should be applying for some sort of temporary road closures to make it pedestrian only for the home games.

I've also, along with many others, had my car broken into whilst parking in the car park on Midland Road. 3 young lads take your money and then sod off (or more likely inform "friends" of any target cars) at kick off time.

 

I have lived in Bradford all my life, was pretty much brought up around the Manningham/White Abbey area even though i lived in Shipley. Never really felt threatened like i have walking round various estates but the area has deteriorated in the last 10/15 years. The driving and parking is laughable, pretty much drive how you want and park where you want round those areas now. Shame really, for areas i know so well i now have no emotional connection to them at all.

 

I can't say I've noticed much deterioration tbh. It's always been pretty scruffy and run down ever since I've known it. It looks much the same to me as it always has.
Admittedly it did used to have some good clubs that are no longer there - Sugar Cane, Palm Cove, Bibby's - but it's many years since they all closed. What is it you think has changed in the last 10/15 years?

 

Great for.the local community but not sure how much use it would get on match days though.

What can it offer that the suites or North Parade can't bearing in mind 90% of.our football is played when the weather is poor?

 

Large Vodka Chaser.

Sounds like a Russian Duncan Norvelle

 

To be fair so is Rugby Union, but it still works at Northampton.

 

There are areas in Leeds and Manchester that make Bradford look positively beautiful.

 

Yeah but there are areas in Bradford that make Beirut at the height of the bombings look beautiful.

 

You could say that about any area of any major city. Of all the years I've live in Bradford I've never really felt threatened walking round it. But then I'm an 18 stone male which does make a big difference.

 

In an old disused Yorkshire Bank building that was stood all on it's own in Hunslet.

 

Passed within a few 100 yards of that ! Very close to where the scallies were, though Newton Heath was probably the worst part for trolleys !

 

Erm.... and were you?

 

And risk my daughter blabbing to her mum ?

 

Fair and valid point.

 

I might tell you that next time we get to the Beehive ! Though, if you've ever driven near Hunslet you'd know that even a photographic mind won't get you round the Leeds loop the same way you went last time.

 

Did you have to pay extra for that 'Leeds Loop'?

 

what is the difference between fan zone and Bantams Bar except entry fee?
