    Harrogate took all three points from Valley Parade last season.

    Harrogate Town will travel to Bradford for a Christmas Yorkshire derby.

    Today's fixture list revealed that Town will start with a home match against Swindon Town on August 30.

    They will also end the season with a home game, against Rochdale on May 6.

    But most Harrogate fans will have looked first for the matches against Yorkshire rivals Bradford City, against whom Town did the double last season.

    Valley Parade holds up to 25,000 fans.



    Simon Weaver's men will entertain the Bantams on October 1. The return fixture will take place at Valley Parade on December 29, when a bumper festive crowd is likely.

    The two teams played twice in 16 days last season. After defeating Bradford 2-0 at the EnviroVent Stadium, Harrogate then came from behind to win 3-1 in a thrilling encounter in Bradford.

    Former Manchester United striker Mark Hughes was named as Bradford's new manager shortly after that game.
