Genuine question: what safeguards are there to make sure another Hillsborough or Bradford City fire couldn't happen now? #RIP56 #jft96

On this day 40 years ago, 56 people attended a football match at Valley Parade football ground and didn't come home, their lives lost in a wholly avoidable tragedy. May those who died in the Bradford Fire, their families, and those still traumatised, never be forgotten. #RIP56

On this day in 1985, 56 football fans never returned from Valley Parade. Sadly this doesn't get noticed. #RIP56

Vale had finished their season on the Friday at Scunthorpe. The Saturday was my 18th birthday, I was living at my Gran's farm at the time, I remember vividly watching the telly for the football scores coming in and it going live to Valley Parade, horrendous & preventable. #RIP56

40 years ago today my dad took his youth club away for the weekend. Which means 40 years ago tomorrow we didn't go to the Bradford vs Lincoln match. I'll forever be thankful, sadly many didn't make it home. #RIP56
