    It was a great turn out.
    And lovely words from the Dean of Bradford, Bowerman.

    RIP to all those who never returned home.

    36 years seem to have flown past I remember watching it happen from Bolton Road on the way home, we had to miss the game due to other commitments otherwise we would have been in the main stand that day.

    Indeed It's one of the saddest days of the year and for me it gets harder every year to take in an even harder to talk about.
    R.I.P to the 56

    This year has seemed strange remembering that day. Topped off with a minutes silence at work at 11am to remember those that passed.

    A very sad day for the families, those who were there, the club and a reminder to all of us, that this is a game of football, it gives a lot of emotion to people, but that lives are more important.

    I agree I like to get there but if for any reason I couldn’t and for people living away to watch on line is a good option

    Even now, the footage of that day still shocks and horrifies me to the core.

    RIP

    I once rang ITV and had a massive spat with them about it. There had been a program on showing it (one of these when good times go bad things) and seeing it again shook me to the core, so I rang ITV, who I believe are the owners of the footage, and told them in no uncertain terms that it should be destroyed so it can never find its way onto that kind of program again.

    RIP the 56.

    In all honesty I’ve found social media really uncomfortable, and bordering on classless, today. The clubs decision to announce Trueman and Sellars’ departure has seen far too much attention paid to that by many of our fans, further compounded by Pritchard announcing his departure on Instagram this afternoon.

    Am I being over sensitive about this, or could it all have been left until tomorrow..?
