I read about 15mins before he'd collapsed, just thought he'd swallowed his tounge or something minor and it was going to be alright, how wrong I was.

Bloody hell.

I heard he'd collapsed earlier, but I've been without internet all night, so didn't know until now.

RIP Phil, 'well legend.

Not another one, not long after Puerta either. I wonder what the hell causes this maybe players need their hearts examined on a regular basis or something because it sure does suck a large amount.

There was that french guy from the dutch league, I think a croatian that was playing for Benfica and there have been other incidents like this.

And Marc-Vivien Foe during an African Nations' Cup match.


From what I understand, O'Donnell had a seizure just as he was about to be substituted. Doesn't sound like Long QT got him.

Tributes are building up at Fir Park

Motherwell are doing so well. I feel sorry for his nephew, David Clarkson. I've seen him play a few times before and he scored 2 in that very game, I can't help but wonder how this will effect him.

I feel sorry for him and his family.
