"56 people were burned to death and over 200 injured when FIRE, caused by a cigarette, engulfed the wooden main grandstand at Bradford's FOOTBALL STADIUM. The Bradford City Disaster occurred on May 11, 1985 when a flash fire occurred at the Valley PARADE stadium of Bradford City FC during a football match against Lincoln City FC. Bradford City was celebrating winning the Third Division Championship trophy on this day. A fire occurred in the main stand and quickly spread. Due to its wood and asbestos construction, and the intensity of the fire, the stand quickly collapsed (said to be WITHIN 4 minutes of the fire starting). 56 people died in the fire, with hundreds more injured".
