Stafford Heginbotham : ウィキペディア英語版 | Stafford Heginbotham Stafford Heginbotham (12 September 1933 – 21 April 1995) was a British businessman and chairman of Bradford City football club at the time of 56 deaths in the Bradford City stadium fire, which occurred immediately after the club won league promotion that mandated a costly upgrading of spectator facilities. A 2015 book revealed the extent of Heginbotham's fire insurance claims before the disaster, which had led to him being the subject of local innuendo about arson. In the light of the book's revelations the head of a 1985 public inquiry into the disaster maintained there was still no reason to think there had been anything sinister about the stadium fire, although he acknowledged it was cause for suspicion that Higginbotham had been a serial insurance claimant. ==Biography== In the mid 1950s he worked as a salesman for a soft furnishings company, and by the age of 24 he was regarded as the firm's best salesman.〔(Extract from The 56 the story of the Bradford City Fire )〕 Heginbotham married Lorna Silverwood〔(Telegraph and Argus Obituary on Heginbotham's wife )〕 and had two sons, James and Simon, who still reside in West Yorkshire.〔(Mirror interview with Heginbotham's sons )〕 Heginbotham created the "Stafford Heginbotham Castle Trophy Highest Aggregate Wickets" in the Bradford Cricket League. The trophy is still running to this date.〔(Bradford Cricket League Heginbotham Trophy )〕
