	Geoff Bradford - Bristol Rovers & England Footballer
		Even though Bradford continued to score consistently and the team remained a competent second division side throughout the fifties, by the end of that decade the team was faltering and Bradford played out the twilight of his career back in the third division after relegation in 1962, not always at centre forward.
		Bradford ended his career as Rovers all time leading goalscorer, remaining so to this day, and is one of a cluster of players to have scored four goals in a game for the club, achieving this feat against Rotherham United in 1959.
		Bradford's fantastic service and loyalty, as late as 1961 Bill Shankly was trying to take him to Liverpool without success, was rewarded with a testimonial in 1964.

	Disaster Claims
		Disasters fill the headlines before fading from view - except for those who lost love ones, or who escaped but still suffer from the resulting stress, for whom events such as these remain all too real.
		If you have lost a loved one in a major disaster, have been injured or have escaped but are struggling to cope with the trauma and are unable to return to work, you may wish to seek professional support.
		It is also necessary, where a disaster is a result of negligence of some kind, that public comment from those who may later be entitled to compensation represent a consistent, uniform point of view.

		Such was the impact of the disaster on her, that she took back to Germany the idea of giving Bradford a memorial gift, thus the memorial was a gift from the People of Hamm to Bradford.

	Bradford City A.F.C. - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Bradford did not achieve city status until 1897 and to that extent red, amber and fl could well have been associated with Bradford prior to the granting of the arms and certainly well before Bradford's city status.
		Bradford City's 'Bantam' identity arose from the suggested resemblance of their claret and amber colours to the plumage of bantams.
		Bradford (PA) also adopted the Bradford civic crest and liked to present itself as the Bradford 'civic club' although Bradford City FC had stolen a march on its rivals given the fact that it was formed four years earlier.
