Bradford City's Billy Clarke facing potential FA Cup wedding day dilemma

By , Reporter
Bradford City forward Billy Clarke claims that he may struggle to make his own wedding if his side reach the FA Cup final as the two occasions are just a day apart.

Bradford City forward Billy Clarke has joked that he may find himself rushing to his own wedding if his side reach the FA Cup final.

The 27-year-old Irishman is scheduled to get married on 31 May, one day after the Wembley showpiece.

Phil Parkinson's side are still in the hat for the FA Cup semi-finals after the Bantams drew 0-0 with Reading on Saturday to force a quarter-final replay.

Clarke told BBC Sport: "My wedding is the day after the cup final so I've been joking about with my missus saying I might not be able to make it. I've told her that if I'm late she'll know where I am!

"I think since she found out what date the final was she's been going into every game thinking 'Oh my God, he's getting closer!'"

Clarke joined Bradford from Crawley Town last summer and has scored eight goals in 31 games.
