What a relief and what a result, Skerra, I’m so pleased and thankful that you’re still with us!

Kudos to the 3 fellow fans 🌟🌟🌟you named and the professionals involved in treating you; I really hope you have a lot to cheer on Saturday and that there’s as little tension as possible!

Here’s hoping that the club soon recognise the fans’ role in saving your life through their awareness and responsibility for a fellow fan in trouble.

Puts all our whinging about the recent team performances into perspective, all the best mate and delighted to hear you are on the mend.

Agree with all that, amazing story and hope Skerra is around to witness many more Villa victories.

Mind, you still only gave the CPR lads 5/10 in your post-match ratings. :)

Do you know how long it took me to get home that n….:-)

Great story.  There are still some wonderful people in the world despite everything we hear.  Glad you’re here to tell the tale.  Stay away from the Villa would be my immediate advice!

Great news on your recovery

May I ask what treatment you had   operation, bypass, stents?

I hope the 3 saviours are acknowledged as they bloody deserve it

This thread puts moaning about yesterday in perspective certainly. Hopefully Saturday will be a good day for you Skerra.

Perhaps Tommy Jordan might be worth contacting given he's the comms guy at Villa if you want the club to thank the fans who saved your life over the PA?

Wow
I had 2 stents 2 years ago. Scary at the time

Glad to hear you are ok

Great news Skerra. I'm sure that if you find the right person at the club there will be a positive response.  Those three deserve wider recognition.
I still blame you that we haven't won at home since then. :-)

I'm glad you're on the mend Skerra.  Well done too, to the three brilliant people who made sure we still have that Villa fan on board. 

Here's to all four of you, heroes one and all.

An amazing story and proof that CPR does work and shouldn’t be stopped until medical assistance arrives. Glad you’re recovering

My old man has the same. Your ticker is basically invincible now!
