Description
11 May 1985, Bradford v Lincoln. It should have been one of the most joyous days in the history of Bradford City, as they celebrated winning the Third Division at a canter. Instead, a fire in the Main Stand turned it into a day of tragedy, with 56 spectators killed and at least 265 injured. Mike Harrison, editor of the legendary City Gent fanzine, was at that game and he joins Steven Scragg to discuss the causes of the fire, the events of the day itself and the legacy that it has left.
