Saints v Swansea Chapel End

[9-3]

What was that all about kicking off Chapel right hand side 5 min before end of game.

All of Chapel stood up to look.

There was a decent contingent of Dutch fans (FC Groningen I think)... one of them decided to change the mood with a trumpet... playing the last post when the Swansea kid was being treated, and eventually "having a go" at playing When the Saints go Matching In. All friendly from where I was sat.

I heard the crowd cheering from where I was bit couldn't work out what was going on.

 

As an aside I heard tonight that an old chap had a heart attack in the Dell bar before the game. Stewards, St John's and a cardiac nurse who happened to be in there administered CPR and saved him. By the time the ambulance got there he was brought round and talking. He had a clot in his artery and surgeons have put in a stent and he's fine now. Well done to everyone involved.

There appeared to be some sort of fight in block 38/39 too from what I could see in the Northam, think a guy took a swing at a steward too. Anyone know what that was about?

Yup - seems someone had a trumpet and the stewards went into turbo **** mode to see who it was who dared do that?

This. I think the stewards were concerned that if the trumpet player carried on for much longer, 4 fifths of the chapel would wake up and there would be a mad rush for the exits.

Brilliant story! Could have been a very different outcome. Probably the best place for it to have happened given all the expertise around him.

Someone did give someone a dig as I chap I work with was sat next to it, couple of chaps who had never sat there before one of them was winding everybody up througout the game and pushed his luck a bit to far and got a slap for his troubles.

[iansums]

I was sat in the Chapel for the Swansea game, didn't notice anything. However I did let out a little trumpet of my own during the second half, bloody smelly one too, I got a few funny looks.

That's brilliant news. This gents decision to go to watch saints would have saved his life for sure.
