Pull through lad, a full recovery is all that matters now this season. My thoughts are with Farrice and his family.
Depression is just a state of mind, supporting Bolton is also a state of mind hence supporting Bolton must be depressing QED

I am a praying man and all my prayers right now are for the lad. Cameras had the decency not to show close-ups but I feel sick. Who could have played on with that on their minds. God be with you Fabrice.

Apparently John Barnes on ESPN is listing the players who've collapsed and survived.

However, the golden minutes are crucial and if they were still trying CPR in the ambulance then it doesn't look good at all.

What a horrible feeling.

I remember Fadiga collapsing at the Bok but he was up in a couple of mins.

This looks and feels totally different, I really hope the boy pulls though. Keep fighting Fab.

6.44pm The ESPN reporter in the tunnel says that Bolton are preparing a statement to confirm that Muamba is on his way to hospital. There is no further information, and we still don't know whether attempts to resusciate Muamba have been successful. It's hard to articulate just how shocked everybody looks, from the referee to the players to the ESPN team.

Bolton Wanderers can confirm that Fabrice Muamba has been taken to hospital following his collapse at White Hart Lane this evening during the FA Cup quarter-final.

There is no further information at this stage.

Kind of leaves you numb. Can only hope he recovers and wish him the best.

6.51pm ESPN have ended their coverage. Rebecca Lowe, John Barnes and Kevin Keegan did their job admirably in impossible circumstances, but ultimately there is nothing they can say. Everyone is just waiting to hear whether attempts to resuscitate Muamba have been successful.
