£20 for Away Students at Bradford

Whilst virtually all Hereford United supporters who went to the Valley Parade would agree the game provided plenty of entertainment, £20 is a lot of money to watch League Two football. Anyone over 16, including students, had to pay £20 except senior citizens.

Bradford charge a lower price for 'home' students. They can watch for £15 subject to belonging to the club's student scheme. And Bradford allow under11's in free again subject to conditions.

No tickets were issued to away supporters at the turnstiles. Should the referee have decided to postpone the game, the pitch was very wet, how would Bradford have given refunds?

And although the view from the upper section of the TL Dallas stadium was excellent, the seats were very close to each other and with less legroom that most other clubs.

Up against the combined noise of over 13,000 the 277 supporting Hereford were quite vocal but as the Stand was wide as opposed to deep the 'singers' were too spread out.

And no-one came up with any song that suggested Bradford could be on their way to the Conference. The Bantams lie sixteenth in the table after today's defeat by the Bulls, just nine points above bottom-placed Wrexham.
