I wonder how noticeable it was as well. Was he blocking traffic so easy or just slumped in a parked car?

But yes, hopefully the club can give them something for their actions when it can be easier to walk by.

A bit off topic but I didn't know where to post it. Upper Sutton Street was closed at the bottom after the game whilst CPR was performed in the road on some poor soul. The ambulance blue lighted past us so there must have still been life but I haven't seen anything about it. I just hope that it was a good outcome. Puts football into perspective.

There is more on that here (I assume it is the same incident)

I drove past after parking near the Bartons, there was a Police van blocking the road off Park Lane, I wondered what had happened.

We heard last night that the man is a friend of my husband's from his tennis club. The message is "he is in a bad way". Fingers crossed for him.

He is now stable in City Hospital and awaiting a heart bypass.

He has now had stents fitted and is stable. He would like to personally thank the fans who saved his life. Do you think that this should be done through the club?
