The Battle of the Imjin River

Outnumbered and surrounded, British troops of the 29th Brigade stood against a massive Chinese offensive during the Korean War. Around 3,000 British soldiers faced an estimated 20,000–30,000 Chinese troops along the Imjin River. For days they held their ground under relentless attack, buying vital time for United Nations forces to reorganise and prevent a breakthrough towards Seoul.

The most famous stand was made by the 1st Battalion, Gloucestershire Regiment, who fought on despite being cut off and heavily outnumbered. Their resistance became one of the greatest defensive actions in British military history.

Against odds of roughly ten to one, they held the line when it mattered most. The battle became a lasting example of British grit and British stubbornness. When lesser men might have broken, they stood fast and fought on.

"The battle that saved Seoul." 🇬🇧

Enough.

@JosephK73504227 @Chris_Taylor32 You’ve paid 200k (rumoured) for a 33 year old. Why would we not take that when he’s 1 year left on his deal. Of course we’d be happy with getting so much for a player at 33.

@nwalto07 @officialbantams But when he’s got the option to return to a club he’s familiar with, much closer to his family and still receive the same money and not have to do the travelling it’s a no brainer really.

@Fazzanelli No comment on the Saudi bloke using a crossbow on an innocent yesterday though no ? You victim.

@tbm_bfd @mcfcman66 @SalfordCityFC 3 of their last 7 managers are now in a higher division and succeeding. Alexander and wellens both getting promoted from league two since and both going on to finish in the league one playoffs. Magical what happens when they are given a bit of time…

@benbcfc2006 @mattpmyers1 @DatCorgiMun @jaywhitebcafc Didn’t play 33 times in the prem in 23/24 season tho?

[David Lowery @DavidLowery2002]

@John_Brammer @TomLees02 Wintles wages will be far too much for what we can afford unfortunately.

[David Lowery @DavidLowery2002]

@Alfiebiggs @bs4_gas Yeah he’s probably our best LCB defensively but it limits us massively offensively when he plays as like I say he’s not very comfortable with the ball at his feet. Great signing for league 2 though.

[David Lowery @DavidLowery2002]

@Alfiebiggs @bs4_gas He’s shite on the ball, won’t make mistakes or owt like that but tends to just play it long as can’t pick a pass. Really solid defender though

[David Lowery @DavidLowery2002]

@Jack__boro @superstacking @Sport_Witness You’ve been preparing solely for hull though, big difference

[David Lowery @DavidLowery2002]

@alfie_bfc @utfc1903 @AshFletcher___ He’s from Bradford… played for Bolton academy but he’s from Bradford

[David Lowery @DavidLowery2002]

@spamvicious @ChrisKibble2 Won us more points than he’s cost us

@lostockwander3r @JSB93x @A6788C Max power over Baldwin, power loves a booking

@s_ryan_97 @bwfc_leon09 @BCofBWFC That’s true but Bolton did slap them for 5 at the Reebok so doesn’t mean much.

[Bradford City AFC @officialbantams]

On this day 41 years ago, 54 Bradford City supporters and two Lincoln City supporters went to a football match and never returned home.

We will never forget those who sadly lost their lives, and as always, our thoughts are with their families and the hundreds still affected by the disaster to this day.

Always in our hearts. 🎗️

@BCAFCCAM @ELancsTrotter Wouldn’t even say they was all over us, they had three good chances same as us. Difference is they took there’s we didn’t.
