Lovely mural outside @TheRecordCafe by @stewysstencils of Bradford City’s all time record appearance maker Ces Podd. The St Kitts & Nevis born defender played 565 times for the Bantams over a fourteen year stay at Valley Parade.

The world's leading rugby historian gave the latest sporting lunchtime lecture @TheRecordCafe. Listen to @collinstony talk on the career of Roy Francis, an innovator and leader of post war Rugby League; a black man from Wales who revolutionised coaching.

Real ale, cask, craft, beer AND music, vinyl, CD ... in a shop? Heaven.
I know it's common in Japan, but England (tea, chippie, book shops, libraries etc) is still in the steam age.

in incredibly tough times.
To only find this out via a sign on a lamppost is a real kick in the teeth too.
If you have a minute, please email [email protected] with ref: CORP/PCD/MW/418699 to register your objection.
Every email will help.
Thank you!

‼️🚨We need your help!🚨‼️
@bradfordhighways and @bradfordmdc are proposing to increase parking charges on North Parade.
This will mean - on the already worryingly quiet evenings - parking for the evening (which was free when we first opened) will rise from £1 to £8.

[The Record Café @TheRecordCafe]

An increase of 700%.
The effect of this on small, independent, owner-run businesses like ourselves will be catastrophic.
It flies in the face of all the good hard work we’ve done over the years to encourage people to visit us. And is yet another barrier we are having to overcome

We've decided to postpone Paul Norcross's sporting lunchtime lecture that was due to take place @TheRecordCafe Sat 3 May.
It's likely to be frantic as City's season reaches, what we hope, will be its final game!
Paul will open the 2025/26 season of sporting lunchtime lectures.
