I get that all broadcasters are probably working from centralised pictures. However the producer/director/whoever is in charge at the BBC could have made the decision to cut to the studio rather than continuing the feed.Quote:

Talksport reporting that he’s left the ground. Serious but stable.
By all accounts he acknowledged the finish fans who were directly next to him by raising his hand to them!

Absolutely horrifying.
The images and reports of Christian being conscious and breathing are encouraging, though of course they don't mean he's out of the woods completely. Hoping beyond hope that he recovers fully, swiftly, and there's no lasting damage.
The Euros don't matter a jot in the face of this. Please, please be well.
It’s easy to criticise the media coverage yet we are all delighted to see that photo of him seemingly conscious as he leaves the ground.
He’s a famous footballer - people want to watch him play and want to know what happens after he suddenly collapses during a game.
I’m finding hard to be too critical here.
Indeed PB however it was clear pretty much straight away how serious this was. To zoom in whilst he is receiving treatment, CPR and being shocked is an utter disgrace. Whilst the pictures will be centralised the boss at the BBC chose to continuing showing it which is out of order.Quote:

Apparently broadcasters get multiple feeds. There was no reason to stay with the feed of inside the stadium. That picture of him looking better I also think is extremely distasteful to be honest.
Sadly , this is now the world we live in, something happens (car crash etc) people are more likely to stand and film it rather than do anything to help!Quote:

He is awake 👍
Ill happily confess to being in tears watching it, as I was expecting the worst.Quote:

It’s not reallly important at the moment..Tiime for analysing that are once we know he’s safe and well
Horrible to watch. However the medics are highly trained for just such an event and were on the scene in minutes.Quote:

Next few hours will be critical.
Ignorant question here. The medics walked across the pitch, whereas I wanted them to run. Is that their training?Quote:

Well done to the Danish players and the Finnish fans for the flags as screens

It was horrible to watch but I kept watching, as it appears most of us commenting on it did, in the hope he would come through. If I hadn’t had that hope I’d have turned off and probably not come on here to discuss it either.
Definitely this.Quote:

The BBC will be crucified for the coverage. The resuscitation and video of his distraught wife were just unacceptable. There was plenty of time to make that call.
Just so happy to hear he is recovering, fingers crossed he is ok.
