Matt Posted 4 April 2009 Posted 4 April 2009 Sorry to speculate - Close if you feel appropriate until something is confirmed (If anything), e.t.c. But did anyone see paramedics rushing to the East Stand - Towards the 'Kop' side of it, at the very top, Didn't look good from where I sit, I saw paramedics look as if they were doing compressions on someone.

Someone told me they had been trying to restart his heart for 15 minutes and that he had died or something. Could be totally wrong though.
Matt Posted 4 April 2009 Author Posted 4 April 2009 Someone told me they had been trying to restart his heart for 15 minutes and that he had died or something.Could be totally wrong though. I saw paramedics rush round just after our 2nd goal and I could see them working on the person until the end of the game so 15 minutes probably wouldn't be far off. Not good news.
AmericanScott Posted 4 April 2009 Posted 4 April 2009 Saw that aswell. There was an ambulance waiting outside with a few cops surrounding it. Hope everything is okay.
Poakey Posted 4 April 2009 Posted 4 April 2009 Didnt look good from where i was,must of been awful for the family.
Ajax Treesdown Posted 4 April 2009 Posted 4 April 2009 I saw the paramedics using the defibrillator machine and pumping the chest too. Also, not that it matters.....was it a young person or elderly??
Jimmy Lad Posted 4 April 2009 Posted 4 April 2009 What could have been a great day for all LCFC fans tuned into a terrible day all round. The guy was just behind from where we sit. His friends and family were screaming for the first aiders to get there quick. In typical 'sods law' fashion the chap was right on the back row of the stand. When they did arrive they were doing their best with the guy but possibly to no avail. Had him stretched out on the back row of seats. Think it happened soon before we went ahead. The euphoria of Fryatt's goal seemed almost distant as I saw what was happening behind me. Then they score... then the poor chap (rumour has it) loses his battle. Feel hollow and sick tonight with everything that happened both on and off the pitch. RIP.
lifted*fox Posted 4 April 2009 Posted 4 April 2009 ****' hell. horrible news. RIP if indeed he didn't make it.
carterfox90 Posted 4 April 2009 Posted 4 April 2009 i sit in the kop & saw some of what was going on did'nt look good but if he did'nt make RIP feel sorry for the family
Fox92 Posted 4 April 2009 Posted 4 April 2009 I saw it aswell but only sit in the kop so I could see what was going on, not totally though. I could hear the family screaming to the medics to get up there. RIP.
Gené and Tonic Posted 4 April 2009 Posted 4 April 2009 I was in J1 just to the right. 2 stewards were there but didn't put him in the recovery position until the paramedics got there. He was slumped with his head back. Didn't look good, but couldn't speculate as to the final outcome.
Unabomber Posted 4 April 2009 Posted 4 April 2009 ****inghell sitting in the Kop all I could think about was the game and how mad I was when they scored. Knowing someone might have died during this time puts it all in to perspective. Terrible news, and if it is as feared my condolences go out to their family.
Halfsy Posted 4 April 2009 Posted 4 April 2009 I'm afraid to say i saw this incident from afar, and it didn't look good. Condolences from all at LCFC to the family. Certainly puts things into perspective, especially to the w*nkers to my left who were fighting with each other before the Carlisle equaliser.
Lovejoy Posted 4 April 2009 Posted 4 April 2009 'kin hell that's awful. RIP and condolences to the family and friends.
C-man Posted 4 April 2009 Posted 4 April 2009 It happened just as there was a quite period before Fryatt's goal. I sit in SK1 and could here some lads infront of the incident screaming at the paramedics to get there faster. It didn't look good from where I was sat. Devastating news for the gentleman and his family. RIP
Maybes Posted 4 April 2009 Posted 4 April 2009 Jesus. Definitely puts things into perspective. Hope they made it.
Salieri Posted 4 April 2009 Posted 4 April 2009 Truly tragic if the poor guy didn't make it. Certainly puts things into perspective.
Craig Posted 4 April 2009 Posted 4 April 2009 Terrible. Puts everything into perspective, hope he's ok. :(
City fan @ Aston Uni Posted 4 April 2009 Posted 4 April 2009 Yeh i saw it from the Kop too. Could tell it was very bad when the paramedics were sprinitng to get up to the top of the stand. If it is true, RIP.
MikeyT Posted 4 April 2009 Posted 4 April 2009 That incident happened right near me. Couldnt really see alot because of so many people standing up in the way. If the worst has happened then my condolonces to the family. Its just horrible.
