The youngest victim of the Ibrox Disaster was only eight.

His name was Nigel Pickup and he was a  young lad from Liverpool.

 God, I'd forgotten about that.   Someone tripped and fell, and the next thing people are dead.  Same thing happened in a London underground disaster.   My mum used to tell me about that, as we lived in London when I was a kid.   I remember that awful Bradford fire too.   Watched that unfold live.  It was dreadful.

 Sorry Digs, I didn't see this yesterday.

There was about 80,000 people at the Ibrox Disaster game.

Someone said back in those days people were so squashed, you couldn't put your hands in your pockets.

That was the 3rd loss of life at Ibrox (25 people died in 1902 at a Scotland v England game) sadly it took the events of 1971 to make Ibrox safe.

It was the anniversary of the Bradford City Disaster on Saturday, I can mind watching that in my Granda's house.

A dropped cigarette and within minutes the stand was an inferno.
