I have an extensive collection of archive photographs and memorabilia relating to Bradford City AFC. Subject to copyright restrictions I plan to upload themed albums on an irregular basis and you can find links as below.
Other images have been published in my books in the BANTAMSPAST History Revisited series including A HISTORY OF BCAFC IN OBJECTS (pub 2014).
I hope that you will visit other sections of my blog including features previously published in the BCAFC match day programme, articles about the history of Bradford City and book reviews – follow the menu above. The links provide free, accessible history about BCAFC with the assurance of it having been thoroughly researched – substance rather than soundbites!
