Bradford Park Avenue’s Horsfall Stadium was targeted by vandals over the weekend, just hours before the club hosted a high-profile FA Cup tie.

The club made an appeal via its website asking for volunteers to help clear up graffiti prior to this afternoon’s match with Kidderminster Harriers.

The club said they were “very disappointed” to have to deal with the problem, but the Fourth Round Qualifying tie went ahead as planned.

In the message posted yesterday morning, Park Avenue said: “The club are very disappointed to report that the Horsfall Stadium has been vandalised overnight.”
