In 1994 , Harriers were Conference champions , but were controversially refused promotion due to the Football League 's tightened fire safety regulations for stadiums after the Bradford City stadium fire . Aggborough 's main stand was of wooden construction , and despite assurances a new cantilever stand would be ready for the new season ( which was completed on time ) and considerable West Midlands media support the Football League rejected Harriers ' promotion . Ironically the ground hosted an 8,000 crowd without any problems for the visit of West Ham United in that year 's 5th round FA Cup
