It's what happens subsequently that's important now. Good point , noted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matty2094 Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 Just now, Lt. Aldo Raine said: If it's the one I think it is, that isn't the person Agreed. This was a middle aged looking bloke - fairly sure the twitter post is bogus. Like others have said, was just to the right of us, 3 or 4 rows down. CPR, defibrillator out, a lot of attention, didn’t look good. Absolutely hoping for the best. Also if the bloke with a flat cap on that sits around row M in IL3 is someone off here, you’re a fucking weapon. Arguing with a clearly emotional steward who’s asking you to clear the stand is not a good look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post kent_white Posted January 13 Popular Post Share Posted January 13 Chap was about 2 rows back and four seats to the right of me. Went up to try and help as soon as I knew what was happening - and he was already being given chest compressions by a fan, but no rescue breaths. Shouted that I was a nurse and that I could give mouth to mouth but was pushed back by the stewards in the confusion. Then tried to alert the stewards that they needed to get the defrib because nobody seemed to be getting one at first. Then on the way back stopped to look after a young girl who had collapsed on Ox Hey Lane - and put her in a car to the hospital. What a weird afternoon. Hope the guy is OK - but it's a tough ask in those circumstances. Looked like he was at the match on his own too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post ianofcleveleys Posted January 13 Popular Post Share Posted January 13 I was on opposite side of stadium but could see things were very serious. Sterling effort by the blue jacketed member of staff who kept battling on giving CPR for best part of 20 minutes. I hope those efforts weren't in vain, he certainly did his best Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

onefinfrandsen Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 Was sat opposite and there seemed a bit of confusion at first, understandable in the circumstances, fair play to everyone helping this chap out, even on the way to the ambulance a guy was still trying to give him cpr on the stretcher, it may well have been friend or relative. Hope he makes it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eddie Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 Awful for all involved, really hope it’s good news. Thoughts also with your Dad @gonzo - I’m sure after his trauma last week it’s no doubt brought it all back at a really emotional time as it was.

If he survived they might form part of the timerline of his successful treatment. If nothing else I would expect that they will be used in the debrief/review in to the response. Thoughts are with all concerned but particularly the staff who have worked on them and those sat nearby. Nothing else really matters right now.

Been there mate , its horrible , especially when you know you can help or do it better , on the flip side the attendees dont know medics from adam so its hard to Judge . What most people dont realise is that we can be prosecuted if we dont attempt to help in a medical emergency. CPR is brutal , there is a reason why people swap every 5 mins or so but its also horribley traumatic for the family to watch as well .

Still cant get my head around the lack of urgency from the medical staff in the ground. Even when they could see something was desperately wrong it was walking pace in to a slight jog. It was like watching a horror film unfold in slow motion. Absolute madness. Seeing the poor bloke shielded by sheets will stick in the mind for a while. Thoughts with the family.

We sit 20 yards from where the poor fella collapsed and proper medical attention seemed to take forever to arrive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
