Great article in The Guardian about him

http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2012/mar/17/ars...
A good friend of mine has known him since he first came to this country. The article is spot on. He always told me he was good enough for the premiership and always told me what a lovely, good hearted and humble guy Fab is.

Never met him myself, but all those who have echoed those words.
All the tributes from the players, staff and fans are genuine. He is much loved and hopefully he'll pull through.

Thoughts are with all those close to him.

I didn't see the game live but saw the concern and incredible crowd and player reaction on youtube. Seeing every single person focused on the well-being of a single young man was a beautiful sight and it reminded me how great of a nation we can be when we all come together in such a way. That felt like the England I know and love.

Very proud watching that I must say and I hope Fabrice gets back on his feet soon to witness what took place in the stadium in his moment of need.

Jack Wilshere put this tweet up earlier,

"When I went to Bolton on Loan I was just a kid moving away from home, I knew Fab from the U21's and i will never forget my 1st day, he Showed me around the training ground, introduced me to everyone and basically looked after me. if you know him then you will know what type Of man he is! A leader and a genuinely nice guy! Everyone keep praying!

Sounds like a top, top bloke smile

Sudden flurry of tweets saying he's died. Hopefully usual Twitter rubbish.

Hopefully not true - seems to have originated via Blackberry broadcast.

and its precisely people posting this sort of thing that perpetuates such rumours, best thing to do is to ignore them. Fingers crossed for the lad.

He was definitely fitting on the pitch to begin with, when they first try to turn him it's obvious, It almost looked like a febrile convulsion but in an adult.

That kind of support is heart breaking, only moments before that I was blabbing to my best mate about a lost bet. fk that.

What NWT posted, it's a cliche but really does put things into perspective. Watching Muamba collapse live on television will change my life. And I'm not being a fanny dodger nancy boy, I mean it.

Condolences to the Kelly family and their extended Kilmarnock family. From going from such a high to a terrible low is shocking. The team played well yesterday and ultimately deserved to win the cup. I hope the Kelly family find some sort of comfort knowing that the last few moments of this mans life were probably filled with pure joy and pride for his son and team-mates achievement on the park.
Great sentiments smile
