GUTTED!! : Sun Feb 08, 2009 5:05 pm  

I am absolutely gutted at the minute!! I have broken my right ankle and cannot walk on it for six weeks!

Brilliant eh, perfect timing for the start of the season!! I was really looking forward to seeing the likes of Menzies, Scruton and hopefully Bird next week but I won't get to Odsal till mid April now because of this.

Arrrrggghhhhhhhhhhh

Do you not have crutches? Sit in the stand!

I have to keep it elevated for six weeks, and in any case if you think I would even attempt to negotiate all those concrete steps at Odsal on crutches.......forget it lol

Bad luck!

My wife broke her ankle and leg so we hired a wheelchair to get her out as she was in plaster for 12 weeks. Maybe you could look into that? You'll go stir crazy if you stop at home for 6 weeks!

my friends partner found out she had cancer and she couldnt walk propley and because she had a season ticket they let her park in the coral car park and let her sit in the coral stand because of the lifts in there.

the best person to talk to is stuart duffy, thats the person my mate talked to when it all happened.

bradford are usually a good club when it comes down their supporters being ill.

If the Coral stand is not available to you :
There are special seats allocated at the top of the main stand for wheelchairs and carers. Have seen invalids there as well.
Car drop off is right at the stand and entry is by security through the main gate and a few yards hobble to a seat.
No steps.

I think I'll drop Mr Duffy an email.

its sometimes easier to phone him or go see him as you will know its from him and not just some office staff.
