A fire took place at Stansted Airport that led to serious delays
But a fire took place Stansted Airport in the early hours of Wednesday morning.
That led to some areas of the airport having to close and causing some delays.
Forest fan Joe Hollman told BBC Radio Essex: “We thought we’d given ourselves loads of time.
“We left Nottingham about midnight and got to Stansted about three o’clock.
“Everything was going swimmingly, we got through security really quick, got into departures and then all hell broke loose.
“We were sitting down to get some breakfast and got evacuated from the restaurant.
“We weren’t allowed to leave departures, couldn’t get to the gate, and then by the time we got to the gate the plane had gone.
“We’ve had to book on a later one – we’re waiting here now. Hopefully, this one isn’t delayed.

“We’re on a bit of a tight schedule trying to get to Seville in time for the game tonight.
“There’s loads of Forest fans in the airport. We were chatting to a couple who are now flying to Porto so will have a bit of a drive the other end. We’re doing everything we can to get there.
“One of our friends was stuck in security and he’s not been able to get on the new flight.
“He’s going to go home – he’s going to miss the day.”
