I have a dismal record going back almost 40 years watching my team live in semi-finals. I have seen Trinity lose two semi-finals; Leeds United lose five (the ones they won I didn’t attend); Yorkshire lose two & even saw England lose at Euro 96.

Having bought tickets for Sunday, I’m hoping it’s 11th time lucky, but can I please apologise in advance if we lose!

I hope Trinity win more for you now than themselves

Might have to pinch yourself a few times if all goes well on Sunday and you’ve to book your Wembley tickets!

Looks like a dry week, hopefully dry that bog out at Odsal.

Havent been for a few years, best places to park? I seem to remember on street parking close to the ground?

The bloke comes across as quite rude too.

It's a parody account, not sure what you expect from it, but he defo catches a few every week

Flash flooding in parts of Bradford yesterday, Telegraph and Argus reported hail stones at Odd Smell, perhaps some of our friends at the Bulls can give us an update?

Apparently, the flooding in Bradford caused £3m worth of improvements.

Plenty of parking in the streets off Staithgate Lane near the roundabout at the top of the M606. Also plenty off Cleckheaton rd a bit further from the stadium or on Halifax rd. Not saying where I park as I don’t want to lose it to hordes of Wakey fans.

The fact that you'll be there now gives me fresh hope
