Can’t verify it’s authenticity as there are some strange people out there who are good with photoshop. I hope more than anything else right now it’s genuine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
East Kent Saint Posted 12 June, 2021 Share Posted 12 June, 2021 8 minutes ago, Delmary said: Such terrible scenes. Disgusting and insensitive coverage by the BBC. I watched the Heysel match and kept watching as we were not told that 39 people had died , the players weren’t told either and it went ahead which was a total disgrace. It should never been played in a run down under capacity stadium and English teams were banned for 5 years . I have not forgotten that the culprits on the night were so called Liverpool fans and the fact that it was used to cover up Hillsborough disaster . Hillsborough was the fault of years of poor oversight and neglect , previous crushes ignored , no safety certificate, out of date stadium , club and council neglect of their duties and a new Poice commander put in charge on the day with no back up .

It was terribly insensitive. I think both BBC and ITV are using UEFA’s footage so I’m not sure how much they could do. The work of CRY - Cardiac Risk in the Young - needs promoting and more funding, saw a presentation on it by Professor Gregg Whyte through work a long time ago. Vivienne Foe, Muamba and now Eriksen, hopefully the outcome is more the latter than the former and he survives this for the sake of his young family.

S-Clarke Posted 12 June, 2021 Share Posted 12 June, 2021 As someone else mentioned, best place to have that sort of medical episode is on a football pitch surrounded by medical staff, defibs and all the required treatment. It looked bleak but they've all saved his life. I'm amazed the game went on, Denmark were never in the right frame and the game was at such a slow pace. Doesn't feel like the result really mattered in the end though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billy the Kidd Posted 12 June, 2021 Share Posted 12 June, 2021 I agree there would have been serious shouts for the tournament to be needed, but I very much doubt it would be stopped even if a player died. They may postpone games for a couple of days, but that’s likely about all they’d do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
