Hemel Town chairman suffers stroke
Club chairman Dave Boggins went to Hemel Hempstead Town's home game with Yate Town last Saturday just hours after suffering a stroke.
"I had it before the football but didn't realise what was happening," said the Irishman.
"I went to the hospital, they took my blood pressure and temperature and things like that, and then I left and went to the football."
Boggins decided to go to his doctor on Monday as he still felt unwell, and they sent him to Watford General Hospital, where he remained until Friday.
"I managed to get to the game on Saturday (against Yate Town]," he said.
"I have some numbness but I'm ok."
He added: "I will carry on at the club. It's not the club that's brought this on, it's other things going on in my life.
"Football doesn't give me stress, it gives me enjoyment."
