To mark 120 years of Bradford (Park Avenue), the club are launching a special commemorative shirt for supporters.
They will have their name woven into the fabric and ultimately, into the club’s history.
Founded in 1907, Avenue have had some great footballers in their ranks down the years, such as the maverick Len Shackleton, First Division and FA Cup winner Jimmy Scoular and Derby County legend Kevin Hector.
The club has a rich history, even after falling out of the Football League in 1970, with the club keen to celebrate that.
Avenue said: “This is a unique opportunity to become part of Bradford (Park Avenue).
“By adding your name to our special commemorative anniversary shirt, you’ll have it etched into a bespoke design that honours our wonderful supporters, past and present.
“From lifelong supporters to the next generation, every name represents a piece of our journey.
“This shirt will stand as a lasting tribute to the people who make our club what it is.
“Join us in marking 120 years of belonging, passion and ambition. Add your name and wear history.”

The shirt will be red, amber and black, similar in design to Avenue’s original 1907 shirt.
From now until Saturday, October 31, supporters can take advantage of a special offer and add their name onto the shirt for £50.
From Sunday, November 1 to Monday, November 30, the price will increase to £60.
A personalised certificate can be purchased for an additional £5.
You can pay to have your name woven on the shirt via the link embedded here.
The shirt is planned for release in February 2027 due to manufacturing deadlines from Avenue’s sponsors Capelli Sport, while the certificates will be published alongside the launch of the commemorative shirt.
By paying for your name to be on the commemorative shirt, this does not mean you automatically get a shirt.
The shirt will be available for sale when the design has been finalised and is in stock with details of that to follow in 2027.
