Fella had a heart attack start of the game.
They were working on him but it didn't look good.
Had a couple of kids with him was an horrific incident. I fear the worse but hope he's OK.
For the religious among us, maybe offer a prayer

That's terrible to hear. Hope he recovers.

It was Pete. I couldn't get my head round it.
Spoke to a paramedic lady who was there, absolute hero in my eyes

Facebook saying he’s ok

Otis · Aug 8, 2021

Oh, that's a relief.

If that's true Pete, and it is Facebook, but then I'm over the moon and can enjoy that win!

Shocking. Thankfully all stadia how the equipment and medical staff trained for incidents like this these days. Hoping he's ok.

steveo1987 · Aug 8, 2021

Awful, hope he is OK.. I was in A&E in resuscitation on Monday after heart failure due to a chest infection...incredibly scary stuff..Made it to the game today although I had to take it easy.

Jeeeeezzzz mate, lucky escape! Glad to hear you've come through ok!

SBchimp · Aug 8, 2021

Thank fuck for that, was just down from where I was sitting. My wife was in tears when she saw it. Really tough to try and watch the first half after being witness to it.

But he's OK and the 2nd half was an all out party HAPPY DAYS !!

fatso · Aug 8, 2021

Big shout out to the medical crew, top work guys and girls.
Its days like today when we all appreciate your effort!

rob9872 · Aug 8, 2021

Glad to read he's ok, hope he didn't stay til the end or that would've given him another one!

Bet the last 15 minutes were a strain!

This happened at oakwell a couple of years back. Half way trough second half people started shouting for help, paramedics arrived didn’t do anything but cover him up. Was the weirdest thing ever stood watching a match knowing 20 yards away someone lay dead. Rest of ground carrying on and the three blocks nearby just stood in silence/shock awful night.

theferret · Aug 9, 2021

Awful to hear this. The thought of his children looking on too, that's just horrible, and I so hope that he has pulled through as suggested.

I remember being very close to the supporter who died at the Sheffield United cup tie (we only learned he died after the game), but I remember not being able to get that out of my head for a while after. I also remember as a young kid and old fella slipping as he came down the steps of the Sky Blue Stand, landing on the steps at the bottom; he died too, awful scenes and I was just a nipper. Puts it all into perspective.

lifeskyblue · Aug 9, 2021

I’m so pleased and surprised he survived. It seemed an age before the paramedics got there; the steward was increasingly frantic in trying to get help and when they did arrive the paramedics worked tirelessly (for 5mins plus) to try and revive the guy through the use of CPR. I thought we would learn today that he had died but to hear he hasn’t is wonderful. The steward and paramedics deserve huge praise for their efforts and actions.

Glad you are ok…but sounds a scary few hours for you )and your family). I’m not sure yesterday’s game (well last few minutes) would have been prescribed treatment.

By all accounts he has pulled through.

Nothing official yet but brilliant news. I assume the club will put something out?

If he has that's fantastic news and down to the people involved in treating him. Fair play to each and every one of them

NortonSkyBlue · Aug 9, 2021

My son saw what was happening and was worried that you hadn’t made it. He was delighted when he found out you had survived.

junglej13 · Aug 9, 2021
