SIR - It is an accepted fact that when a football team does well, the feelgood factor socially and commercially benefits all sections of the community.

All our politicians are united in praising the football club’s achievements and bask in the reflected glory that the Bantams have achieved.

Would it not therefore be appropriate for them to invest in the area where the City ground is a focal point and make visitors realise that Bradford is a place, as well as a team, to be reckoned with?
