Im going and cant wait,walking past the bookies last night i noticed there advertising Leeds to win 4-0 in the window so lets hope there wrong


Im not too bothered if we lose aslong as we play better than we did against Huddersfield.

Quality not quantity.

Each strand deserves the upmost attention!

Bournmouth have sacked their manager after just 4 games

Over 4000 Bradford fans going tonight

No sh*t! Its our cup final!

Embarassing.

Is a bit, isn't it.

4,000 travelling support - that's more than we've got for home JPT ties in the past. And all so they can go to Elland Road for a night out.

Indeed.

At the end of the day it's a JPT game against a lower midtable league one team, I wouldn't usually care if we lost this sort of game 6-0 to be honest - obviously I don't want another Huddersfield-esque embarassment because it's a local derby, but I certainly want no part of this silly cup final atmosphere being built up, mainly by the teenagers on the official messageboard.

Maybe it's because I remember proper games between the clubs in the 80's (even though I was only young), but this is one game I really can't get worked up about. I will listen if it's on the radio though.

Old enough to remember the 3-3 at Elland Road courtesy of a Mervyn Day howler? One of the best atmospheres I've ever experienced at a football match that was.

Yes, I was there New Years Day wasn't it? - preferred the dodgy late penalty that got us 1-1 draw at Easter the next season though, although being spat for it at as a 10 year old was a bit of a surprise.

My mum actually banned my grandad from taking me to Elland Road after I told her of seats etc flying around on my first visit to watch City there, luckily her ignorance of football, and the fixture list, meant I never actually missed one of them.

The chav 5000 at Elland Road will be spitting feathers at this one. Even though we've apparently played well.....

"Should played Thorne, disgrace" etc, etc.....
