Club's ground used for an emergency

As many may be aware yesterday’s match vs Lowestoft Town was delayed due to a medical incident.

With the game barely 30 seconds old, the match referee was told to clear the pitch by a policeman as it was needed as a landing point for the Air Ambulance.

This was needed for personnel to attend a serious medical incident in one of the industrial units close to the ground.

The casualty was attended to, wheeled to the Air Ambulance and then air lifted out of the ground.

The game restarted after an hour’s delay.

The incident highlights our magnificent Emergency Services and the club were of course only too pleased to be able to help them.

Our thoughts are with the casualty and his family and colleagues.
