Legendary godfather of green grass

Bradford's ability to reach the Carabao Cup final is the most glorious moment for the team in recent decades.

All the people rejoice!

Fans of Bradford regard final day as their own holiday.

Countless Bantam fans flocked to the new Wembley Stadium.

Because, the 2012-2013 English League Cup final will be held here.

Bantam refers to Bradford, and the animal on Bradford's team emblem is Bantam.

Rumor has it that in 1911 a bantam was parked on the players' bus on the way to the FA Cup final and the team won the FA Cup.Fans and club executives believed that Bantam brought them luck, so their team nicknamed Bantam, and even added Bantam to the team emblem, and even the team's jersey later. Similar to a bantam.

To this day, the Bantam is Bradford's nickname and their lucky charm.

Now, there are countless people flocking to the new Wembley Stadium in plush bantam costumes.

These people are all going to cheer for Bradford!

Today, their club is going to make history again!

Today, their Bradford Football Club is about to usher in the championship again.

It was the closest the club came to top-flight national titles since winning the FA Cup in 1911.

Bradford people are very excited.

And before that, the Lord of Bradford.Simak Lawn once said very excitedly: "This is the most glorious moment of our club since 1911. This is the most glorious moment for all our bantams. I hope the boys of the team can continue to make persistent efforts. , win this championship and add new honors to the club!"

Lawn is a well-known rich man in Britain.

He started to cooperate with Bentley in 1983, and he opened more than 100 branches across the country in his heyday.

He has been a Bradford fan since he was a boy and has been for over 40 years now.

In 2007, the Bradford club fell into financial crisis. When it was put into trusteeship, he took over the team and assumed Bradford's debts.

Up to now he has led Bradford to the League Cup final, and he has won the support of countless fans.

Many fans now regard him as the club's meritorious coach.

Now his speech can be described as a response.

Lawn even publicly stated when the Bradford team left Bradford: "If the club wins the League Cup, I will reward the team with a bonus of 250 million pounds!"

This moment became the most sensational news in Bradford.

It also made the Bradford players very excited. They all blushed and had thick necks, waiting to go shopping with the Crystal Palace people.

A bonus of 250 million pounds is considered a very good bonus for some mid-lower teams in the British Championship and the Premier League, let alone the teams in the second division.

At this time, the weekly salary of League Two players is generally around 1000 pounds, and the annual salary is around 5 pounds.

If they win the League Cup and get this batch of bonuses, they will each get around £1 in bonuses on average.This is a lot of money for them.

No wonder Bradford's players seem to have had chicken blood.

Bradford players shouted: "This time we Bradford will win the League Cup!"

And in the view of Bradford's head coach Phil Parkinson, Bradford has a great chance to win the English League Cup this season.

Parkinson is a native of Lancashire, England. He was born as a professional player. He made his debut in the Southampton youth training camp, and later played for Bury Football Club and Reading Football Club. He once won the League Two Championship and the best player of the season.

After retiring, he became a football coach. He also served as the assistant coach of Alan Pardew at Charlton Athletic in 2007, and then took over Charlton Athletic.

In August 2011, he officially took over Bradford.

His performance in leading the team is not bad, and he won the best coach of the month in the League Two in December 2011, and he also led the team to complete relegation last season.

This season, he even led the team to occupy the top position in League Two, and miraculously led the team to defeat Wigan Athletic, Aston Villa and Arsenal in the Premier League and reached the final of the League Cup.His own prestige in Bradford has also reached unprecedented heights, and he has become the "best coach" in the minds of Bradford fans.

If it weren't for the team's focus on the League Cup, it would be impossible to say that Bradford has already occupied the top position in the League Two.

Parkinson has done a fantastic job at Bradford.

Parkinson said in front of the media reporters: "Our opponent Crystal Palace is not a Premier League team, and their strength is not very strong. This should be regarded as a weaker opponent in the previous League Cup finals. This is for us. Good thing for Bradford."

Did you see it? It’s no surprise that the teams that have defeated Wigan Athletic, Arsenal and Aston Villa one after another, they feel that Xi’an Ai doesn’t pay much attention to Crystal Palace.

Gone!

Parkinson also said: "Of course, I know that the strength of Crystal Palace is still stronger than ours. They have good strength, even comparable to the strength of the Premier League team. However, I am very concerned about our Brad Ford's defense is very confident. We were able to retreat from Wigan Athletic, Arsenal and Aston Villa. You have a chance to win!"

Parkinson's words made the Bradford fans very excited and excited. They believed Parkinson's words, and they also thought that what Parkinson said was very reasonable.

They believe that in the next game, their team can beat Crystal Palace and win the League Cup.

Even at this time, they are a little impatient.

On the day of the game, countless Bradford fans flooded into the new Wembley Stadium.This is like a dream for them. It is a miracle that their home team can appear in the new Wembley Stadium and appear in the League Cup final.

incredible!

Even before that, many Bradford supporters never had the luxury of seeing their home team play in the new Wembley Stadium in their lifetime.

This is simply a dream come true!

After decades of waiting, they actually waited for it.

They are very excited!

Even according to statistics, more than [-] Bradford fans came to the scene today and entered the scene to watch the game.And there are many Bradford fans outside the stadium who have not asked for tickets. I really don't know how many Bradford fans came to the scene this time.

It can be seen that this team attaches great importance to this game.

Many high-level people from the Bradford club also came to the scene and entered the VIP box on the stands of the new Wembley Stadium.According to the live camera, it is Bradford's owner.Sealawn, executive CEO Julian Rhodes, general manager David Baldwin and manager Roger Irvine, and others.It can be said that the top management of the Bradford club is dispatched by the whole army this time, and the scene is very big.

This shows that they attach great importance to this game.

This is also a rare opportunity for them to appear in front of fans across the country as a senior executive of the Bradford club. Naturally, they all attended in costumes.

Seeing this lineup, fans of other teams will feel a bit exaggerated.

But you have to imagine that the last time the Bradford team won this kind of national top championship dates back to 1911. How many years have passed, it has been more than 100 years, and that is already in the last century something happened.

You just have to understand them.

When Lawn and the others walked into the VIP box, all the Bradford fans saw them.These fans stood up one after another and waved to Lawn and the others in the VIP box. The scene was very spectacular.

Sure enough, these Bradford fans will make trouble!

The game was televised nationally, and Bradford finally showed their face in front of a national audience once again.

Even Lawn, who was used to seeing big scenes, felt very excited.

Now his identity is not a top rich man, but a thumping Bradford fan.As an old Bradford fan for more than 40 years, he is really excited and proud to be able to experience and witness the birth of such an honor in his lifetime.

Even, before he came to the VIP box in excitement, the group of them went to Bradford's player locker room.

In the players' locker room, an emotional Raun directly increased the team's championship bonus by 100 million pounds. He claimed: "If the team wins the League Cup, I will add another 100 million pounds in bonuses. Up to £350 million!"

When they heard this, the Bradford players were short of breath, and even some guys were a little out of breath.

Of course, the team's head coach Parkinson is also very excited.

This is undoubtedly the best thing and the best way to boost morale. You see, now Bradford's players seem to be pumped up one by one.

Military heart is available!

Parkinson immediately turned to Lawn and said: "Mr. Chairman, don't worry, all our players will go all out to try to show our strength when we face Wigan Athletic, Arsenal and Aston Villa. I believe our team can really win this game and win the League Cup!"

Lawn immediately said: "It's not about fighting, but we must show our strength to face the Premier League team. We must ensure that we win this game and give the club the first League Cup trophy in history. I will take it back. At that time, I will celebrate your success in the most luxurious hotel in Bradford!"

The Bradford fans in the locker room immediately howled excitedly, and even the Crystal Palace players next door could hear them clearly.

Lawn continued: "Come on, boys, I'm waiting for news of your victory!"

The Bradford players shouted loudly: "Mr. Chairman, don't worry, we will definitely go all out to win the championship!"

Lawn was very satisfied and kept nodding.It took a while before they walked out of the locker room and went to the VIP box, where he was still very excited and full of expectations.Like all the Bradford fans in the audience, he was anxiously waiting for the final.
