Any update on the fan who collapsed at the end of the match ?

At the end of the game in the SW corner. Hope the poor guy is ok, haven't read anything about it on here or the Gazette

I know the fella. He used to have epi fits behind us in the South Stand. They moved him to the SW corner. He's been in hospital for a few weeks and was surprised to see him at the game last night with a zimmer frame. We were too far away to find out how he was. Get well soon Dave.

Thanks Norfolk, thought about the poor guy all night

I spoke to one of his mates yesterday and he told me that Dave had been released from the JC about an hour later. He suffers from Epi fits and them flashing lights don't help. Hopefully the close season well get him back on track and back to the Riverside.

Great news, i was looking around yesterday to see if i could see him but no luck. Glad he's on the mend and thanks for the updates

There were medics attending to somebody in the East Stand early on in the game too, hope that person is ok too.

Hopefully he’s ok. If it’s the guy from about row 16 then I thought I hadn’t seen him for ages

The flashing lights are appalling. Any need for them?

I did write to the Club after Dave fell onto us on a number of occasions and the problems the medics had getting to him in the South Stand. The only response was that people were warned about the lights prior to the game and that they have asked him to move to the lower stand, which he has done.

Strange that from the club, it's a 'real' H&S issue.

Yes, would be happy to see them go.

They should not have put the flashing lights on at the end of the midweek game as this obviously could have caused safety issues when people were trying to leave.
But contact Yvonne Ferguson is you have concerns from a medical point of view. The lights have been tested for epilepsy. They have to comply with standards. MFC do provide facilities for people with many conditions to be able to share in the atmosphere.

I just wish I could find the emails to and from the Club
