Strangely, although that is quite recent, well, a lot more recent than the 'bouncing back' campaign, I don't remember it.


Maybe it's because I've become a bit disengaged and tend not read to the end of articles promising jam tomorrow? On the same theme, I wonder to myself, is my disengagement [imy[/i fault or is it the fault of the authorities in charge of leading us to paradise?

The only reason I remembered it was my bus stop where I catch my bus home on an evening is the one opposite the T&A building, and they have a mostly unmolested sign still attached to the building. If it was summer and I was regularly cycling home I'm sure I'd have forgotten all about it.

But I do remember Bob Holness quizzing a Bradford resident about Bradford's Bouncing Back on Blockbusters in the 80s.

Yeah, "We're Backing Bradford" just isn't [iquite[/i alliterative enough to be memorable, I guess.
How about " Burgers Backing Bradford's Bigger Bounce Back to Become Better"?

He wanted to see where all the beautiful people come from. That or be close to another right wing lunatic in charge of the town.



I cycled through Manningham every day for 10 years without much trouble. I walked home numerous time late at night as well. I must admit I'm not sure where Bradford Moor is exactly.

Are they Class A or B drugs?

Sort of between Fagley and Laisterdyke, more or less. Oh, and it's fine to walk through.

You're think of Beta Blockbusters. Bob Holness is a legal high.

Dolly Parton briefly considered buying a flat in Doncaster. Then she stopped smoking Bob Holness and changed her mind.

My mistake, rlthat was Rotherhamrl. Nobody has considered buying a flat in Doncaster.

Of course Bradford has much more to offer than Donny, new transport interchange, direct rail link to London, new college, new theatre being built and pride of place a new 15,500 all seater stadium.
Looking at the facts as hard as they are to stomach, Bradford is being left behind.

you can get a direct train to London from Bradford and in the Alhambra and St. Georges hall, there are 2 very decent theatres to check out the top names that are still coming to Bradford.

With respect mate, if you don't want anything to do with Bradford then you know the courses of action available to you. If jibes at your town prick against your civic pride I can suggest not starting a thread telling people of another town that everything to do with where they're from sucks and should be swept under the carpet simply because you, a person from far away, choose not to be associated with it.

Choose more decisively.

How many of those things were the result of the library closing, anti-gay mayor & how many were thanks to the previous Labour administrations?

My girlfriend is from Bradford and i lived there for almost a decade, the point of the thread was not having a go at the city of Bradford which is not really my problem, but was to highlight what in my opinion would be a better marketing ploy for the club which as i have had a season ticket for for seventeen years is my business.
I don't see that there is a connection between the city of Bradford and what happens at the club, other than the location and judging by the amount of people i see on the M62 going to Odsal not everyone lives in Bradford. If the crowd was made up of purely people who reside in Bradford then fair enough maybe i am wrong, but it isn't so i don't see as changing the name would be a bad thing at all. I only have the future interests of the club at heart.

Although "hi de hi" has not done himself any favours in his presentation (again), maybe at least it could be said he recognises there may be an elephant in the room?
