No arguments with that. The guy didn't either really, but it came across as 'the real heroes are here now so move along' - but as I say I'm probably overreacting, it was a very difficult circumstance.cfgs said:rikofold said:
Look, to be fair they did do a good job in difficult circumstances, but they weren't interested that this guy was involved in the care of the fella (or that he had some medical qualifications), they summarily dismissed him as an interferer and treated him accordingly. Just felt it was unnecessary, it felt like they were weighing in with a 'we're here now to rescue everything' attitude.superchrissypowell said:
What did they say to him? I thought the stewards did a decent job, especially in such a serious situation. The guy doing cpr was on the scene very quickly and has given the guy a much improved chance of surviving. I really hope he pulls throughrikofold said:
And I was just 2 rows in front. Left me feeling the football was no more than incidental until half time and we heard he was OK.BigRedEvil said:Happened right in front of me. It didn't look promising. Top work to the guy who did cpr.
Steward said at half time said he was okay and being taken to hospital so fingers crossed he's okay
You're right about the chap doing the cpr - shame the stewards had to butt in with their hero mentality and be really quite rude to the guy who may have saved this man's life. He was very gracious considering.
It was all horrible though, and maybe I'm overreacting.
Not good, but I have been in that situation before when say the Ambulance service turn up and they move you to the side as the alternative is to trust you know what you are doing and you could simply have seen the Vinny Jones advert.

thoughts are with him and his family and im glad to read that hes still with us! the guy who did CPR was amazing IMO well done0

Could see it all from the North Stand and as said it went very quiet when people saw the CPR being done. Well done to the first responders who got the person to hospital---lets hope the recovery continues.

In all first aid training you are taught to do what you can until the professionals arrive. In such a situation the medics have to presume that those helping are untrained and there is hardly the time to have a conversation about it when there is someone in need of attention.
Well done to the person who did step up, takes a lot of balls to do that.
Thoughts with the person and their family and hopefully they make a full recovery1 -
They do have hi-vis jackets.....rikofold said:

Though I am 'first aid' trained and know how to administer CPR if I ever came upon the situation where I had to use it, I think I would shit myself and would hope that there was someone else there who could do it.
So much respect to the guy who administered the CPR, and I hope the guy pulls through.1 -
Hey guys, just wanted to clear up a couple of points. It was myself who initially carried out CPR on the gentleman. I was sat a few rows back and saw that something was going on, so obviously went into 'work' mode and did my best to help out. It was clear that the man was in cardiac arrest, so I kept things ticking over until the medical team arrived, and assisted where possible.
It's obviously difficult in those situations and not nice for anyone, so it's not surprising that while you're trying to explain your role and offer further assistance, some people become slightly blinkered and 'task orientated'. This was the case with one of the stewards, but to him I was a guy in plain clothes who was in the way. I understood that, and as the casualty was in good hands I thought it was probably better to go back to my seat rather than confuse matters.
If anyone has any further information on his current condition I'd be very grateful. Thanks.127 - Sponsored links:

Well done Rylo. You almost certainly saved a mans life last night and there's not many people who can say that after a game of footy. Hat's off to you!1
