Bradford away travel

Looked at both coaches ( national express) and trains home and there is a train at midnight and no coaches, so it looks like the travel lodge will be the best plan. Any info on 'away friendly' pubs or anything? Never been bradford lol

Mate Bradford is an absolute shit-hole. You're better off drinking in Leeds 1st and then heading over.

Jakey you know there is a 5.00 train from Leeds that gets into London at half 7 don't you??

Train journeys that take 8 hours are generally not advisable :lol:

Just got two tickets. Quite excited about that one, really important game we could be in the last 4 and I think Chelsea will get done by dirty Leeds (hopefully off the pitch as well :lol: ).
