Bobby Pointon
Bobby Michael Pointon (born 4 January 2004) is an English professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for EFL League One club Bradford City.
Born in Low Moor, Bradford, Pointon began his career with Bradford City, and was one of nine players to turn professional in July 2022. He moved on loan to Brighouse Town later that month. After three goals in four games he then moved on loan to Farsley Celtic in September 2022, with Bradford City manager Mark Hughes saying it was Pointon's challenge to deal with football at a higher level. The loan ended prematurely in November 2022, and he moved on loan to Liversedge a few days later. In December 2022 the loan was extended to the end of the season.
He was offered a new contract by Bradford City in May 2023. He signed a new one-year contract with Bradford City in June 2023.
Ahead of the 2023–24 season, Bradford City manager Mark Hughes said he hoped that Pointon and fellow Academy graduates Harvey Rowe and Dylan Youmbi would cope with the first-team environment and continue their development with the club. He made his full debut for the club on 9 September 2023, and was praised by Hughes for his performance, as well as by teammate Alex Gilliead. Hughes then rested Pointon following two starts in a row, saying "it's about him developing his knowledge within the game itself. It's all part of his education".
Pointon scored his first goal for Bradford City in a 1–0 win at home against Swindon Town, on 7 October 2023.
After being dropped by new Bradford City manager Graham Alexander, Alexander said that Pointon was still in his plans. After a return to the first-team in the EFL Trophy in January 2024, Pointon said that he hoped he had given Alexander a "headache" when considering future line-ups.
Pointon made his first start in two months on 29 March 2024, scoring a goal in a 2–0 victory, ending a run of four successive defeats. At the end of the season, after a run of form, Pointon said he was not daunted by the praise he was receiving from fans. He scored 4 goals for the club in the 2023–24 season.
At the end of the 2023–24 season, Bradford City triggered a contract extension. In June 2024, after Pointon changed agents, the club began fresh contract talks with him. In July 2024, Pointon signed a new two-year contract, with the option of a third year.
