nope, I mistook any wood for all wood etc.

glad it happened- the ban on use of wood. Remember the reports and news footage.

 

seem to remember if not all wood it was mainly of wooden construction and like @Chief got back just in time to see the scores on grandstand instead to watch a disaster unfold in front of us .
In about a month we had Bradford ,a kid being killed from bricks falling on him at Birmingham City and then Heysel .****ing grim times

 

I was the same how Chief described it, watching it on Grandstand at home as it all unfolded. Terrible day. I've been to Bradford since, one thing I really remember about it is being half way up a hill, so built on an incline.

 

I'm pretty sure Bradford and Brum happened the same day

 

ah could be i just remember seeing they were all really close together .

 

It was shown to us when I was doing fire safety training

 

You can see in that video how people to begin with are looking at a small fire and thinking that's not too bad, but the rate at which it grows and spreads is alarming. The combination of material (wood in that case) and the heat from a growing fire creates an exponential effect where the heat becomes so intense that areas that weren't alight, suddenly combust. At that point, you have a fire that is growing in strength and will eventually consume everything.

Very sadly on that day, lots of people didn't get out of the stand quickly enough, and I also believe that a lot of the casualties were found by a locked exit gate

 

Probably even less likely given the results the other night but it would be great if Ulster could nick a point in Germany.

 

Oh well. 1-0. Serge Gnabry, the player Tony Pulis once said wasn’t good enough for West Brom.

 

This isn't going to plan, think NI are going to get a smacking.

 

Newcastle appear to have bought the German Zirkzee

 

What price could you have got on a NI goal

 

What a finish from the boy.

 

Lol ****ing have some of that.

 

As good as the goal was, the highlight of the half has been Mats Hummels’ wife.

 

Fond memories of Matth saying “Paddy McNur”

 

The Germans really are a bit ****e these days

 

What a horrific way to concede after they’d done so well.

 

Germany are ****ing appalling

Thought this young coach of theirs was meant to be this unbelievable genius future world beater

Guys done **** everywhere

 

£116m Wirtz wraps it up after they get a very soft free kick. Keeper could have done better.
