Today's Football - 2023/2024 Season

[PhilM]

I've got the same issues as Lockyer, I had an op to fix the problem, but it happened again in July, I've had another op and hopefully it's all sorted now.
Your pulse goes crazy and its out of rhythm making you feel sick and dizzy.
My pulse was racing at about 170 - 190 for 5 days (at rest)

Hopefully this is not too a personal question, but what did they say about strenuous exercise and whatnot?

I dont understand why the game hasnt restarted.........

And yes, I do have compassion.

Someone get me a video of that Southampton panenka penalty miss

Could do with a laugh

It 100% sounds like epilepsy to me btw with Lockyer, esp with him now seemingly conscious and responsive.

Game called off

Game appears to be called off now.

I would guess the ref and managers are discussing what to do. Luton players may well refuse. So is it a replay? Does the result stand? Call the PL?

 

[RomanReigns]

Don’t get how a play off final can go ahead after a similar incident but a prem game can’t

I guess they've asked the players if there in the right frame of mind to continue i would think most wouldnt be.

Is it the 60 or 70th minute where if a game is called off the result remains?

I may be talking out my arse with that like

This is happening much too often these days. Wonder if it is all the PEDs players are taking, legal (like energy drinks) or otherwise.

People will claim that it has always happened, but not to this extent. I dont recall any of this happening in the 80s and 90s in england...I'm sure someone can find an example or two, but this seems to be 2 or 3 every year recently.

Not suggesting this was related to what’s happened today, but I’ve read a few things about mega dosing of caffeine in professional sports, which I can’t image is too clever over a prolonged period.
Might have it all wrong but believe caffeine isn’t on the banned substances list but in high enough doses can assist endurance etc.

It may all depend on his condition, and the condition of his team mates.

Lets hope Lockyer is okay.

At least as it was a draw a reply shouldn't cause any unfairness.
