With my old man and @The31YearMan who is lauding up the fact he hasn’t missed a game since Jan this year. He’ll never be the big hitter in the league of the Lewis brothers, no matter how hard he tries
Wrong cabbles. Last game missed was Bury at home last season in Sept 2017 so edging toward a calendar card. You're right though about not being in the 'Lewis League' as I need to seek dispensation for Blackpool away in Dec. Absolutely gutted I'm missing a potential third trip to Bloomfield Road in 2018. These 31 years will have cracks all over it.
We’ll dissect this Blackpool revelation on Saturday. See you in the valley cafe at 7.45am

So 10 competitive games missed in the last 3 seasons....a mediocre start to this meaningless quest of yours...
PS - don’t look to the forum for support. I forbay it. Oohaahmortimer and whoever else you had backing you won’t suffer this Blackpool nonsense lightly
Straight in front of the Interchange there’s a pub called The Queens, not a total dive and it was £2.50 for a pint of lager. Didn’t make anywhere else before cabbing it to the ground last season.

Does it show football? Spurs v Liverpool on sky?
It definitely had football on last season, Chelsea were playing I think.

At home to Watford had Chelsea as my last man standing Sure football was on in city vaults as well

Cross the road opposite the Queen and there is a pub on the corner called the ginger goose. That will have football on. If the queen isn't your cup of tea there is a pub he hind the goose called the bank. Good quality beer.
For the cheap and cheerful the weather spoons in centenary Square isn't bad.
Anyone staying over the night I would recommend north parade, about 15 minute walk from the city center.

For those of you travelling up to this game I thought you would appreciate a heads up on the best places to drink - for those of you who are intending on having a few anyway!
If you are arriving by train and come into Bradford via the Interchange then I would suggest making the short walk from the station to City Park – easily found as it fronts on to City Hall. Just look for the tall clock tower in front of you as you leave the station. For cheap and cheerful there is the Turls Green (Westherspoons). However, I would recommend taking in Sunbridge Wells – a subterranean complex of bars (7 in total I think) which is located behind the Turls Green (just go through the passage between Turls Green and Starbuks and you will see it straight ahead). These bars are about 20 minutes’ walk from the ground though, so keep that in mind.
Sunbridge Lounge has a nice selection of beers and serves tapas.
If you are short on time then you will need to be making your way towards Valley Parade, therefore I would recommend North Parade. A street full of independent bars and only a 10 minutes’ walk from the ground. Great beers and vibrant atmosphere on match days.
Also worthy of note is City Vaults, opposite Waterstones and close to the Broadway Shopping Centre where you can get some traditional pub grub. This is about 15 minutes’ walk from the ground.If you arrive at Forster Square station then City Vaults and North Parade are your best bets. This is the nearest station to the ground as well.
Parking is bit rubbish close to the ground; you may find the odd space down some of the nearby side streets. For cheap, safe and secure I would recommend parking at the Broadway Shopping Centre - £1.50 for the entire day. If you park there then expect a 15 minutes’ walk to the ground. There is a food court in the Broadway and includes Burger King, Subway, Taco Bell and a Chinese whose name I forget. Five Guys and Zizzi are just outside.

A very nice gesture Jimmy.....much appreciated by one and all. Sunbridge Wells will have caused a few smiles amongst our readers as Tunbridge Wells in Kent is home to a fair sprinkling of Addicks and traditionally sits within our Kentish catchment area......it’s rather posh don’t you know.
Knowing both quite well, it's worth saying that sunbridge, wouldn't be out of place I. Tunbridge. The gin bar is a favourite of mine. Tbh you wouldn't think your in Bradford.

I wasn't going but might have to reconsider lol

It's a cracking day out, best pie in the league by a mile!

Avoid the boy and barrel and the city gent.
