Bradford City in the Premier League with Wayne Jacobs and Kevin McDonnell

Host Carl Jones is joined by Bradford City legend Wayne Jacobs and passionate Bantams fan, comedian and actor Kevin McDonnell, to continue the count up the all-time Premier League table as we reach 46th place.

With insight from the stands and the pitch, Wayne gives insight into the step up to Premier League level from Division Two, recalls the match that left him both physically and mentally drained in the opening weeks and gives the inside track on the spirit that lifted Bradford into the top flight, and the disintegration of some of those factors that saw them fall back down the league ladder.

Aside from just enjoying the company of his hero, Kevin reveals that he's actually met Wayne before, as well as reliving those glorious seasons that saw City rise to the top table, collecting an array of Premier League stars along the way. Was it all worth the ride in the end? 

We'll also put a Premier League Bradford City XI into the archives, and we reveal who is the Premier League's greatest Belgian player of all-time is following your votes last week.
