Whilst we post on the thread known as ‘A Programme On This Day’ we should also remember those 56 people who went to a football match on 11th May 1985 and never returned. RIP.

One of the most tragic days in the history of football. RIP the 56.

Thank you for posting Rocky.

On that afternoon I was tiling my bathroom with a mate called Sam, and we stopped and watched as news came in from Bradford. I can remember it like yesterday. Horrific and tragic and as you say, 56 people went to the game and didn't get home. Plus hundreds more burned and mentally scarred for ever.

RIP.
