Totally agree with Tim. Like him if there was no home Leeds game and couldn't 
get to/afford the away 
game I'd get the 52 bus to Bradford, get off on the road below Valley Parade 
and climb up t'hill to the 
ground. The delights of not just standing (as you could at ER then) but also 
change ends at HT. And 
plenty of places to get a good curry. Further helped by a good friend who was a 
Park Avenue 
supporter so we'd goto Derby games, and like the old Northampton ground the 
country cricket ground 
was part and parcel. Sadly BPA went downhill after they sold Kevin Hector to 
Derby. Then there 
where my school colours - claret and gold like City.

And don't forget Scarborough, my other dream team (hey, I even turned out for 
then as a yoof back in 
the days they where in the Midland League). My dream scenario would be a 
Premiership made up 
entirely of Yorkshire clubs (come on Harrogate Town and Railway Athletic)

Well done City tonight, great performance and a good change to get to Wemberly 
..

No dilemma at all. After Leeds my support always went to all Yorkshire
clubs over any other. As a sixteen year old, when Leeds were playing away,
beyond my budget, I would make the trip to see Bradford City or Park Avenue
(RIP).
