Quote: tad rhino "an old guy in the seat right behind me had a heart attack today after about 5 minutes of the game. we straight away told a steward we needed a paramedic. i am a first aider and sat near me was a nurse. we told the steward to call an ambulance.
she called the st johns who took 8 minutes to arrive and immediately said"why wasn't an ambulance called?".
it then took 13 minutes for the paramedics to arrive by which time the man could have been dead.
we, although we we didn't mind, sat on the steps for the whole of the first half.
surely medical facilities should be on site when so many people were there, the young lass who was a steward was clueless and nobody else, fans apart seemed interested.
the guy seemed to be ok as he left.next time he may not be as lucky'"
I was sat on the back row of the carnegie stand & saw the St Johns & wondered what was happening - I know they seemed to be ages treating the man - I hope he is ok
