Having just watched the dirty little bugger that is mr B Sharp of Leeds get away with 3 clear yellow cards and huff and puff all night, I'm bloody glad we didn't go for him as many on here would have liked.
And if I may briefly....
Well done Bradford City. Outplayed Leeds and beat their fierce local rivals for the first time in 28 years.
I was a student in the city in 99/00 and got a premiere league season ticket for £180!!
Whilst there Leeds fans would regularly take banter to the point of making jokes about the Bradford fire disaster that killed 56 and injured hundreds (many burned alive on the pitch). Leeds would sing bonfire songs, I shit you not.
Imagine that happening at anfield...
As for Bradford they had a chairman (Geoffrey Richmond) that many NSC'ers would have loved, all over the media and spending loads of cash on big name players like Bentito Carbone and Dan Petrescu.
The result.....think Portsmouth but a bit worse than that!
Step in one loyal, local family (The Rhodes) who built all the early sky set top boxes. They put everything they had into the club. Ran it prudently and, after the run to the LC final, finally got on a firm financial footing.
Enjoy tonight Bantams fans. I know what it means to you.
Anyone who doubts Bloom, Barber and Burke. Read up on the history of BCFC and be thankful.
