[King Street Loon]

Nae fine.

 

Guy passed away at hospital of a heart attack.

 

Killie seem to be making a habit of having fans die at their games.

Can only imagine they knew he'd died at the scene, anything else and they would just carry on.

[King Street Loon]

as horrible as that is...is it really normal to abandon the game?

I think it was due to the length of time the game was stopped for.

And out of respect.

[Liam]

Also on top of those factors was it not the fact the ambulance had been on the pitch, and was also away from the stadium, and there needs to be an ambulance present at every game for precisely this reason?

 

Think it was the right decision to call it off out of respect, even if he wasnt dead at the stadium.

nae fine news.

[daytripping]

he didnt die at the stadium though?

 

A strange decision then, folk get ill at the football, have seen it a few times over the years and told the tale of my old man on the other thread, never causes even a stop in play.

[E-P-K]

As mentioned earlier, the game could not continue as there needs to be an ambulance at the stadium at all times.

Pretty sure Pittodrie doesn't have an ambulance at games.

[daytripping]

Thinking about it the club doctor treated my old man while they waited for an ambulance.

Pretty sure there is paramedics stand in the main/merkland corner.

Just red cross mannies, no paramedics. they know their stuff like, some of them probably up to paramedic level

[OddJob]

I was sure there was an ambulance outside the Main Stand

 

Terrible news about the Killie fan R.I.P

[ChutneyLove]

Luckily it wasn't the law in Gothenburg in 1983. A young Dons fan died that night.

There does have to be paramedics on stand by for games (or events) where a certain number of punters attend

As an ex red cross first aider at pittodrie. maybe its changed now but there was always two paramedics, and an ambulance present as well as first aiders

you'll know better than me mate, my only experience is when I asked the club who had helped my old man so I could thank them, was told it was some red cross people and the club doctor, could have been more people involved. Was told they had to wait for an ambulance as well.

When I first heard about it I assumed it must have been boredom he died of but heard later it was a heart attack.

 

The mortality rate for weegieland is 55 so he did not bad overall.

You do realise that Kilmarnock is 25 miles from Glasgow?

Therefore he's nowhere near being a weegie....

you see the clue is in the name...weegie, as in GlasWEGIAN.

Paisley, East Kilbride and the likes are all 10+ miles away, and still weegie holes, like Tup, I would classify 20-25miles away as still very much on the weegie rader.

[Lang Bar]

As mentioned earlier, the game could not continue as there needs to be an ambulance at the stadium at all times.

According to the BBC report last night, the ambulance took 20 minutes to arrive.

Now if that was correct, then the ambulance couldn't have been there in the first place.

The reporter was Chic Young mind you.

You should re-read the last line of my post...there's a clue in the term "weegie" and it's meaning.

Peterhead is not much more than 25 miles north of Aberdeen....are folk from Peterhead Aberdonians?

Strange logic.

[sheepiekev]

I wonder how much experience of towns near Glasgow your average Hat user actually has

A few have very little it would seem.

Kilmarnock folk are weegies?

I'm fully aware of where the terminology came from, as will Tup, and the many others who broadens the weegie status to outwith the city of Glasgow boundaries.

 

 

Bit like Snatch, when cousin Avi calls Boris the Blade a sneaky Russian, even though he knew he was from Uzbekistan

Tup is worse than you.

He think anything south of Perth is a weegie

[The Boofon]

Tup is worse than you.

He's an idiot. It's Stonehaven that's the cut off point.

Bripod is from the Broch, but is also a faux pas weegie

 

[sheepiekev]

The second sentence was superfluous

[jassb]

I'd say south of Perth, west of Livingston, and north of Carlisle

Weegieland = an undefined region where the residents act, speak and have the lifestyle and mentality of weegies and is therefore ever evolving with a fluid border.

Maybe nae weegie land but Ayrshire is full of shithole Hun infested towns and villages
