Ambulance staff support Reading over Cech injury

The emergency services have backed Reading's account of events which followed Chelsea goalkeeper Petr Cech suffering a fractured skull at the Madejski Stadium on Saturday.

Blues boss Jose Mourinho claimed Chelsea waited 30 minutes for the ambulance to get to the right place after Cech's collision with Royals midfielder Stephen Hunt and that his goalkeeper had to leave his stretcher to get into a wheelchair so he could fit inside a lift, and that the delay could have cost Cech his life.
