swfc1983 Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 Any update on this, couldn’t see from Kop what was happening but assuming a fan had taken ill? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Birley Owl 1867 Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 They were in an out within 2 mins. Wouldn't surprise me if scrapping again. Although could tell from the kop there was a large gaggle of stewards around one of the gangways. Maybe someone fell and banged their head.

Probably worrying for the people near her, hence the signalling to stop the game, but actually not too serious 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think there’s a new rule where games have to be stopped if there’s a medical emergency, or it’s just become a thing to signal for the teams medical staff in all scenarios now? People will point towards a ‘’correlation’’ between Covid/vaccines and these amount of incidents. Of course in this persons case it wasn’t anything to do with it. But before this season, these medical incidents still happened in stadiums. think about it. 20-24 teams per league. So at least 42 games in the league happening up and down this country alone?? However many thousands upon thousands of fans in these stadiums. Law of averages says that one person is gonna faint/collapse/fall ill and require some sort of extended medical attention. It just so happens that nowadays it’s broadcasted a lot more cos, for whatever reason, games are being stopped. Had an old chap fall unconscious sat behind me in a game against Leeds a while back. Hooper scored twice?? Anyway. Game wasn’t stopped and no club doctor needed. In fact I think we scored as the man was being carted off by regular paramedics. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did we also used to carry on playing when players collapsed on the pitch with chest pain? Or is that not happening more too? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shandypants Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 I think we need to have (st John’s ambulance) medical teams in each stand. Im not saying it’s right or wrong but we used to play games where everything continued even when people were taken seriously ill and, on occasion, passed away and, as match spectators, we accepted that. Sorry if I appear callous but I think this stooping of the game to attend to someone in the stands is getting out of hand now. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inspector Lestrade Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 Reminds me of Joy Riding, they reported it on the news as it apparently was a thing in Ireland, then it just escalated over night on the mainland. Monkey see, monkey do. We are apes after all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are these incidents more common or would they have been dealt with by paramedics and the St John's Ambulance rather stopping the game for the team physios? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harrysgame Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 Not sure if they have but agree needs to be paramedics or similar in the ground with Defibs, in each stand. Thought it strange that club medics were there first. Have we got good enough radio coms to alert in each stand? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But then Marc Vivien Foe collaped and died in 2003 and Fabrice Muamba was dead for 10 mins in 2012. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
