    RE: There's that, and also....

    The Brewery stand was split into 2 sections. The front section, nearest the pitch, was concrete, but further back it was wooden boards.

    Correct, it was also open at the back. Harder for fires to start.

    I've seen people kick their cig butts through gaps in the floorboards, unlike Bradford I think, if you've ever seen the video it's a shocker.

    I remember that

    Was quite worrying when we saw the smoke and it was the season after Bradford fire.

    We were in the Ponty end.

    Sorry, it could have been a couple of months after the Bradford City fire........but

    It was definatly after that fire. because people round the fire were saying that could have been another Bradford incident
    It wasn't a big fire, but then again the Bradford fire wasn't a big fire to start off with was it.
