StoryCast '21: EP7/21 A Football Fairy Tale

The game represented not only a collision of football extremes, but economic circumstance. For Bradford, the contest symbolised a broader north-south divide.
So, led by former supermarket-shelf-stacker turned striker James Hanson, they set out to achieve the impossible.
