And there it is. I wondered how it would be possible to pop this particular balloon, but the fishy never disappoints. Christ.

The st John have been taking defibs to bp for years


I don’t think St. John have provided the medical cover at BP for some years. To my knowledge it’s a local company who employ local paramedics, technicians and even nurses and doctors. Not sure if they have defibs or not though. 5 is quite a number of them though, I’m guessing one for each stand and then one in upper? Well done the trust!


"Falls to Arnold... Arnold! That's it! Thats it! He's sealed it! Grimsby Town are back in the football league!!! Just a minute to go and Nathan Arnold makes it 3-1! Look at the scenes behind the goal! Look at the relief! The agony is finally over!!!"

Excellent! Early defibrillation increases the chances of survival so every minute counts! With an ageing population and an average age of about 94 in the upper the chances of needing to use one is higher than ever, and hopefully now thanks to the trust we’ve a real chance of saving another mariner if it comes to it.

Over the past few years I've been more in need of depression counselling than a defib at Blundell Park.

To be fair, the club already has 2 defibrillators. The Trust have just bolstered our defibrillating stock by 5.

I do have a serious question though. Obviously it is something we hope to never need but how do we know they work? Do they get tested periodically?

Can any of them play up front?
