Great to see support in defeat

8:00am Saturday 2nd March 2013 in Letters By Reader's letter

WHAT a great sight it was at the last weekend’s Capital Cup final to see the masses of devoted Bradford City supporters continually waving their flags and cheering their team on.

Even though the team played their heart out, they were soundly thrashed by a superb Swansea City 5-0. And yet still the support went on and on, and Bradford can be proud of their team’s achievements in getting to Wembley.

Can you imagine Manchester United and Sir Alex getting beaten 5-0 and behaving like that? The referee would have been accused of bias, and bad temper would have reigned supreme.

Well done to the Bantams, and your fine supporters.
