BRADFORD FIRE/F.A."DISRESPECT"
Show Notes

35 years on from the Bradford City fire which killed 56 football fans, Adrian Goldberg discusses the lessons learned and the opportunities missed with John Dewhirst, co founder of the Bantams' fanzine City Gent, and an eye witness to the tragedy.

In this episode we also investigate claims that the FA is "disrespecting" women's football by declaring the season "null and void" at National League level because of Coronavirus, whilst allowing the Men's National League teams to decide their own fate.  Our guests are Paul Thompson, chairman of Barnsley Women FC, and Gee Thacker of Stourbridge Ladies.
