ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTED TODAY WITH THE

Sat Jan 21, 2012 7:51 pm

Stewards around 116 Ninian stand :evil: , just after cardiff scored the 3rd goal the old guy that sits in front of us (with i think his son) had what looked like a heart attack or a stroke. I rushed down to the front by the pitch to try and get a steward to call for a paramedic, the 1st women steward i spoke to kept asking "what did you say?", the 2nd steward said "what do you want me to do about it?" and the 3rd steward did go and find somebody, at this point 3-4 mins had passed. I cant belive the attitudes of some of the stewards when someones life is at risk, this needs to be sorted out. Seems like they had no idea what to do in a situation like that. Also i was told only chief stewards can call paramedics (surely not ??!!) If anybody has heard how the guy is can you let me know. :( :o

I saw you, I wondered what was going on, that explains it.

Our stewards, I will be honest, I have not much faith in them.

Shocking you would have thought they all would have first aid training. At the very least they all have radios to summon help. Get in touch with the Club and get clarification on this matter Chief.

Did anyone else see one of ours get dragged over the segregation barrier by potatoe head and frog marched off by the police? One of the stewards started that, totally antagonised the fan, should have walked away but was very confrontational, knowing he had the bill on his side. That guy will probably now be charged with a sec 5 and banned. The steward fucked off after this, prick.

It seems ot me that the stweards are improperly trained for this. The club need to check out their procedures for this.

I have a good friend who is a head of stewards down there called "Toni Jones" ask to see if he is available to see you, no need to give my name, as he is generally a very nice chap and will point you in the right direction! good luck, hope the chap is ok too.....

First ill start off I dont know if the fan is ok I hope he is
Im quite shocked by this myself and I wont make excuses for it
the only thing I will say is not every steward has a radio only supervisors and up so getting hold of a radio can take time but thats on the supervisors to make sure they are always within earshot
I wasnt in the area so I have no reference to what happened
with first aid last time this was discussed stewards are told not to practice first aid just manage the area to make it safe
I hope this situation can be improved so it wont happen again

You watch you dont have any splinters sitting on that fence Jonny :roll:

Not allowed to practise first aid, didnt have a radio, it doesnt matter. The response "What am I supposed to do about it" was a f*cking disgrace.

im not saying its acceptable in anyway at all
to be told that when your looking for help is disgraceful
im not sitting on any fence im trying to answer a few questions which have been raised such as radios and first aid but to say 'what am i supposed to do about it' is disgraceful

well it is controversial but i understand it with the level of law suits that go on these days where people start suing doctors when a family doesnt feel he/she has done their job properly a steward with a limited amount of first aid training isnt going to stand a chance, so we control the area and make the area safe and wait for the professionals

Jonny i understand what you are saying, but the delay today of having to go to 3 stewards to get something done, might of cost a life (i hope not) this is not right by any means

no i agree with you its failed at the first hurdle having to get to 3 stewards before anything is done before the attempt of a call to get someone with a radio isnt right and needs to be sorted
I will say this has worked before and the system works, unfortunately people have died at our stadium but it wasnt through the lack of effort from stewards and medical staff in the ground. The system seems to have failed today and I have no doubt it will be investigated
