Sadly, I have to report that the Bolton Wanderer's fan taken ill yesterday, during the
football match between Bolton Wanderers & Cheltenham Town, has sadly passed away.

The game was stopped yesterday after 71 year old fan Iain Purslow was taken ill, he
was treated in the stadium, before being taken to hospital, with a suspected cardiac
arrest, where he sadly died.

Sincere Condolences to His Family & Friends

RIP Iain.

Some reporting on this eg the Sun newspaper is disgusting.
Some things are a lot more important than a game of football.

Don’t know for sure.but I think they put a show reel on showing paramedics circling round the person.thats all I can see unless the written piece has been redacted.

The headline was Footy binned over I’ll fan.
Not exactly appropriate when someone has died.
RIP to the supporter.

It’s obviously been changed then.but they have got form on this type of thing and I am afraid to say in a perverse way they are good at it.
