Cradle Of Filth brengt statement Bloodstock uit

Cradle Of Filth heeft een statement naar buiten gebracht over het voorval op Bloodstock. Over het verloop van het incident zelf schrijft de band:

This person threw what were being sold at the site as ‘gobstoppers’, but which were actually heavy, solid, pieces of candy, approximately the size of a cricket ball and weighing close to a pound, at the band. Approximately 6 of these were thrown, one narrowly missed hitting Ashley in the face and also a terminally ill young fan in a wheelchair sitting side of the stage, a couple just missed Dani and then one hit Paul in the spine, causing him to collapse. The paramedics called an ambulance and Paul was taken to hospital with suspected spinal damage; where he was subjected to numerous tests before the doctors said they didn’t think Paul had sustained any lasting damage.

Verder maakt de band duidelijk dat ook Dani's dochter (10 jaar) aanwezig was en hier erg van geschrokken is. Het had een stuk slechter kunnen aflopen dan nu. De band is dan ook zeer teleurgesteld in de persoon/personen die hier achter zitten. De volledige statement is te lezen in een blog op de MySpace van de band.
