Bradford & Bingley, shirt sponsors for Coca-Cola League 2 rivals Bradford City, are buying 250 tickets for supporters of the Yorkshire club to attend the next home match at Underhill on September 1.

 

City, who attracted 14,000 to their first home game of the season at Valley Parade, will distribute the tickets "at random" among the club's season ticket holders.

 

A reciprocal arrangement will be in place when the Bees visit City on January 26, 2008. The 250 tickets will be purchased by Barnet sponsors Mortgage Express - part of the Bradford & Bingley set-up - on behalf of supporters.

 

Commercial manager Eleri Scott said: "We are considering the best way of distributing the tickets for the January game to ensure that they reach the most loyal of our supporters".
