The Bradford Football Stadium disaster.
As kid I remember the Ibrox disaster and watching the news on tv, all the bodies being lined up on the pitch. I was with my father in Glasgow and we heard about it from fans trying to get home by bus and subway. No mobile phones in those days so a lot of families had long waits to find out if their husbands and sons were amongst the dead or injured. Almost every body in Glasgow knew somebody or in some way was connected to some of those who died.
Many years later worked for a large personal credit company based in Bradford who had an interest in the football club and we were taken for a tour round the stadium they had a wall of pictures taken before during and after the fire. You will possibly remember the policeman with his hair / top of head ablaze. Those guys the police and the ambulance services kept running back into the flames to help folk.
Some people have courage which we cannot measure.A special breed and its not training that makes them do what they do they just happen to have diferent genetic make up. Thya deserve a lot of respect.
