    Just wanted to thank everyone who sent me supportive messages & comments.

    Also folks who didn't, fair enough, I get yer.

    Was a daft post. Not in any way trying to cause offence.

    I've been having a hard time of it of late. I had had a few too many when I made the post.
    Due to work commitments it was only the second game of the season I could make on a Saturday.
    Cash is very tight at the minute & really I should have worked, as the money is needed.
    I had missed seeing my mates at the game & I get most of their banter via Whatsapp, while I'm working / travelling to work.

    I was trying to make a point about the ambulance taking an age to get there. (I'm sure we used to have one on site in the past. With 10000+ people there it seems a good idea). Not a go at our wonderful NHS workers, just a fact of cut backs.

    As I say apologies & thanks & apologies to Korky too. That was wrong.

    Great post anyone who says they haven't made comments they regret in life is lying we've all done it especially after a drink or 2.
    Having the courage to apologise is a sign of a good person in my book.

    There was an ambulance on site but why use it when there’s a much better and quicker option?

    I will apologise to you, John Peachy, and welcome you back. I retract my over reaction at calling for you to be banned. I should have known better as I am a master at knee jerk comments . I did not have a go at you through any media other than this BBS. I know how it feels to have messages sent at you through other media... I have had it many times from people on here over the years. Keep on posting and provoking thought.

    You're too good a poster and a fan to lose! Glad you've had a rethink. Well done, mate.

    because the road ambulance will always be the first choice mostly.... if the incident is deemed severe to the point of life threatening then they will get the air ambulance involved

    Saying something daft (or making a mess of an honest statement) is part and parcel of being human, we've all done it and we'll all do it again. What really counts is that folk stick around for the fallout and they're big enough to deal with it and turn it round.

    Posting on forums can be a fooking minefield, one off-the-cuff remark and you're hounded like an animal, glad you've got in front of this and not flounced off like many do.

    You made a mistake mate and were big enough to hold you're hand up and admit you got it wrong...it's what makes you and the rest of us human....we all spout b@llocks and **** up from time to time, none of us are perfect...forget it and move on......sithi.

    Air ambulance was the most efficient choice so why do people keep mentioning the ambulance?

    Mate, we have never met, but I hope we do. We have a lot to discuss. Let's start with the Jam, the Clash & Ronnie.
