How fragile we are.  Well done to those involved and good wishes for a full recovery.

I'm glad the chap in question was dealt with in such a timely manner, and hope he makes a full recovery, but the result still pisses me off immensely.

They mentioned on WM in the first half that a stretcher was being taken into the Holte, thought someone might have slipped.

Good news, just don't tell him the aggregate score!

I saw this developing and it was quite scary, certainly puts the result into perspective.

Good news, and that as others have said shows that football isn't the end of the world.

Where about in the Holte was this? I was in L4 and saw nothing.

Thanks for posting that, Dave. I certainly noticed CPR being administered from my seat in the Witton Lane Stand.

Thoughts and prayers with the gentleman and his family.

Glad he's O.K.

Pleased to hear that. Let's hope we can stop tearing ourselves to shreds just because of a poor result tonight.

Saw the ambulance with flashing lights in the corner of the Holte and was wondering what was going on.  Good news that the person is doing OK and well done to all those involved in assisting him.

The result pisses me off too. Having said that, I'm increasingly aware that comparing my existence to a flight schedule, I'm in the departure lounge as opposed to arrivals. I'm annoyed but I just can't be arsed spending too much time being annoyed.
