The Bradford city disaster. 56 people dead, hundreds injured and thousands traumatised.

Suprised no one had mentioned it before.

Holy smokes!! I was just reading about the Heysel (sp?) disaster the other day. How time flies. Puts things in perspective.

Well remembered. The Bradford City fire gets rather overlooked (as does Bradford itself)... maybe the people are too stoic to publicise their grief?

Anyhow, my thoughts are with all the families.

Still remember watching it live on TV. I think it was the World of Sport results round up. Thing I remember most is a policeman on the pitch and his hair was on fire at one point. Really shocking viewing on a Saturday early evening.

Surprising that death traps like Tynies Main stand are still around.

Not really surprised, not to belittle it in any way but people arent going to bring it up every year unless it's a 10 yr, 25 yr etc
