Remembering the Bradford City Fire

Yesterday was the 20th anniversary of the Bradford City fire where 56 people lost their lives while attending a football match.

The lessons learned from this event and the consequent improvements in safety at sports venues have been of benefit to the true life blood of professional football in this country - the paying spectator.

On the day that one of the biggest clubs in the country has been taken over for nearly £800million, it is important to remember how we got to where we are today in sport, and why.

Hi, the saddest part that is hidden in your post is that the biggest club in the country being taken over for 800mGBP has also turned it from being the most profitable club in the world to being 600mGBP in the red ..... No thanks to Yankee money barons with no feeling or understanding of the game :-( regards Mike
