  • Hillsborough on Grandstand as a kid with tears rolling and failing to understand how this could happen

    Went to a friends birthday party that day, and was happily playing football in the park. One of the lads got upset with being tackled and stormed off back to my mates parents house. We got called back eventually, only to find out what had happened. Pretty shocking, but I don't think I really took it in at the time. We'd been there to see charlton lose 3-1 a couple of months earlier I think, although my memory may be failing me a little.

    Also remember watching the Heysel business unfold. Being told not to watch, but peaking through my hands to see what was going on and that wall collapsing. Terrible.
  • Geraldine beating R Wayne and 2 Up 2 Down

    That’s proper tickled me. Bravo!

  • Light bulb/fitting narrowly missing Jan Leeming's bonce live on BBC News
  • Bradford fire , from a little smoke to a blazing stand in just a few minutes, and the first signs that people were still there, and climbing out on fire with smoking clothes. As a football fan, thinking Christ that could have been me.
