MPL Director celebrates Bradford City cup success

Graham Jones, owner of the MPL Group of Companies, is 'over the moon' following Bradford City Football Club's historic cup run to reach the Capital One cup final at Wembley Stadium on February 24th.

Graham, a locksmith by profession, is a lifelong Bradford City fan and has been a full board director of the club for the past five years.

He said: "I'm so proud of our achievements in reaching the cup final at Wembley. As football fans will know, we beat two premier league teams - Wigan and Arsenal on our way to the semi-final. That was some achievement but the highlight was beating Aston Villa to reach the final. It was a night I shall never forget"

He continues: I've been to every single game both home and away in our cup run and I know just how much it means to our manager, players, backroom staff and most of all to our loyal fans. Bradford last won the FA Cup just over 100 years ago in 1911. What ever happens in the final, we're just delighted to be there and if we should win I might even bring the cup to our stand at the Locksmiths Exhibition in Nottingham."
