Bradford away

Do you think you'll sell out the allocation at Valley Parade?
Quite fancying an away trip with you, and are the supporters coaches regularly sold out?
Cheers👍

It will be "wait and see" what happens next few games but 1201 will go I think especially if we are still "in contention" at the top

Coaches are domain of Retford Rover (PM him) - but you will want to get a Ticket first I expect and General Sale is not till April 2nd

I think Bradford could give us more tickets than we would ever need.

I'd prefer them to give us less seats and more leg room,the seats infront dig into my knees/legs there.Worse seating space I've come across in sixty odd grounds.I've experienced several knee/leg discomforts at away grounds,but as I said,Bradfords is the worse.

Bumhole lane for me too. The seats are only one arse cheek wide, and even I struggle despite only having a diminutive derriere.

Forgot Luton. May as well stick a row of seating in my toilet, would have the same legroom.

QPR and the back row in front of the boxes at the Keepmoat for me.
I'll be on the terrace on Saturday so I can stretch my bad leg out.

You might be better having a pint in Bradford. The Weatherspoons in Shipley isn't fantastic. Not been in the Sun for a long while but that can get lively.

It's always a good atmosphere in there. A few years ago Les was going to ring a taxi and some City fans insisted that he share theirs for free.
Proper fans.

In Shipley The Fox, Saltaire Brewery, The Junction and Beehive (prev Shipley Pride) are all good for real ale.

I used to go in the Junction every week when Tommy had it and always good beer. A bit of a walk to there and back to Shipley station though.Not been in the Fox for a couple of years but found it lacking in atmosphere. Terry Curran owned the Shipley Pride some years ago. Not sure if that has re-opened or not yet.
I tend to drink round Idle and Undercliffe mainly these days.

I think you mean the Interchange RedJ.
Probably 2-300 yards further to walk than Foster Square.

What never gets mentioned is the fact that people were climbing over the wall onto the pitch because the big terrace was getting rammed full Hillsborough style to the point of people getting crushed, and the OB response was to get the batons out and start knocking people abou,t rather than see what the cause was. Needless to say this didn't go down too well hence the reaction. As usual 'Millwall fans riot' makes are far better headline than 'Football fans crushed due to incompetence by club and police'.

There wasn't much leg room in the upper tier behind the goal at Brentford, I scraped my shins several time in the 90th minute in that famous victory. But it was worth it.
