A minute's silence

Last updated : 04 May 2007 By Charlie Roper
A minute's silence will be held prior to Millwall's game against Bradford City this weekend in memory of the 56 supporters who tragically lost their lives in the Bradford Fire Disaster on 11th May, 1985.

There will also be a collection before the match with all funds collected donated to the Bradford University Burns Research Unit.

Both events have become a tradition at The Bradford & Bingley Stadium, held every year at the home game nearest to the date on which the tragedy occured.

City - who should have been celebrating a Championship winning season - pipped Millwall to the title and many Lions fans still remember when the news broke over the terrace radios shortly after the final whistle.
