That's all there is I think! Is this a 'trick' question Disorganised?

Ernie Machin · Jun 15, 2011

Possibly an old question when Halifax and Wrexham etc were still in the league.

Correct Ernie, Bradford City and Bradford Park Avenue were in the Leagues up until 1970 when PA went bust (amazingly, they were in the red to the tune of 60 grand or so....yeah, 60 grand put them under).
