I'll skip the introductions, as you already know me. I'll be reviewing the article shortly (after my sandbox is freed up of the other review). Noble Story ( talk) 10:26, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
The review is now posted at my here. Noble Story ( talk) 10:50, 22 March 2008 (UTC)
After taking the liberty of making a few small changes, there are a few more small things to clean up:
In "Lower divisions (1946–1981)" the sentence "In 1960, eight years after the ground's Midland Road stand had been half-closed following examinations of the foundations ordered as a result of the 1946 Burnden Park disaster, the entire stand was closed, leaving the ground with just three stands," I'm not really sure what you mean by stands. A little clarification might be helpful.
In "Bantam progressivism (1981–1990)", the last sentence of the first paragraph says, "Despite not recording their first for more than two months the pair guided City to 12th position." The first what? The next sentence also says "In June 1983, Martin called in the receivers and the club was put up for sale." Who or what were the receivers?

Review of History of Bradford City A.F.C.
After reviewing this article to the best of my ability, I deem this a Good Article. Noble Story ( talk) 04:00, 27 March 2008 (UTC)
"Games" sounds like an Americanism, and "matches" is almost never used here. Is this correct, or should we switch most uses of "game" to "match"? Nyttend ( talk) 00:03, 4 March 2015 (UTC)
Originally reviewed for FA in 2008 and it has not been substantially updated since 2010 - how on earth is this an FA in 2015? Giant Snowman 13:29, 4 March 2015 (UTC)
Is there a reason why it was called that? Brutannica ( talk) 17:06, 4 March 2015 (UTC)
Once again, and though I may be a lone voice in the pursuit of this, I will state that Bradford City IS a football club. I have not edited lest the inevitable flame war starts. The majority rules on Wikipedia, but it is not always correct. 94.14.54.88 ( talk) 12:12, 6 March 2015 (UTC)
