BRADFORD CITY FOOTBALL CLUB

That this House congratulates the players and staff of Bradford City FC for providing probably the greatest upset in FA Cup history by defeating Chelsea 4-2 at Stamford Bridge; believes that while Jon Stead, Filipe Morais, Andy Halliday and Mark Yates were the scorers this was a magnificent team effort by all those involved, including the substitutes; further believes that considerable praise should be given to joint chairmen Mark Lawn and Julian Rhodes for their stewardship of the club throughout difficult times; notes the remarkable transformation on the field under the managership of magnificent Phil Parkinson; understands that this will be a huge boost to the people of Bradford; and looks forward to the Bantams going all the way in the cup.
