    Just A Small Issue Regarding Yesterday

    When the match was abandoned we all made our way to the exit gate at the back of the west stand , it was locked with a padlock and nobody was around who had the key to unlock it and let us out .

    Several minutes passed before a steward finally came .

    In the case of a major incident that could be catastrophic if a quick evacuation was necessary .

    Why is it necessary to padlock the exit gate ? , the gates are already secured from the inside and can't possibly be opened from the outside , a steward or two are positioned at the side of the exit gate at all times as well but without the means to unlock the padlock apparently .

    Have people forgotten the Bradford City fire tragedy and the reason so much life was lost ?

    Incredibly poor with serious consequences I'd suggest .

    There’s a lot of poor practice there. Amazed myself by the amount of smoking allowed in the toilets at Bradford City, and indeed
    at most games away.... Let’s hope there’s a lesson learned here.

    That’s ridiculous and wants reporting . Should be just a push bar to open surely

    Well I'm being totally honest , the events of the last 24hrs have made me feel sick , some ccomment's on the media are totally unacceptable , local fans old rivals, have indeed in most part shown some empathy towards the situation, some have just been downright disgusting , i hope the ones showing no sympathy , don't encounter what this good man and his family are currently experiencing , GNGB

    The comments from some of own fans have angered me the most , you are always going to get one bellend from rival clubs .

    To see the medical staff performing CPR on Stephen was very upsetting to witness before the blankets were raised .

    Who the hell can think about football when that's unfolding in front of you ? .
