[derek smalls]

[Colonel Mustard]

A small ray of hope but one I'm grabbing onto with both hands. Hang on in there, kidder...

 

[shytalk]

Watched proceedings from over here during the 'plastic irish celebrations'. Just a small group of 'English', Chelsea, Arsenal and West Ham. All stood together staring dumbstruck at the TV. As has been said before, rivalries go out of the window.

 

Come on Fab my son. You can do it.

 

Thoughts are with you and yours, Holland, Michigan. English.

[Youri McAnespie]

The best wishes are coming from the Manc Massives and the World Cup Winners (MVF connection?)...not religious nor superstitious but let's all have some positive thinking - to paraphrase Gartside - those outside football haven't a clue how important this is - nobody shouldn't return from the playing/watching game we love...I'm sure Fab has youth and fitness on his side - no religion? no hope feelings? Then just think positive...

Even small improvements are all steps in the right direction. He'll soon be reet, as many people have said, he's a fighter.

 

Come on Fab!

[Burndens Bogs]

Obviously a long,long way to go,but it's a positive step and i'm chuffed to bits.

Come on Fab lad.

Apparently Sunderland squad arrive at Reebok stadium to lay shirt in support of Fabrice Muamba.

Another player who has gone up in my estimation, always thought he was just a money-grabber but he is absolutely spot on with what he says. That article has changed my opinion of him to one that he is a decent human being.

Spurs fans i know have always spoke highly about what a decent if slightly odd bloke BAE is.

 

this article certainly shows he's a decent lad.

Curtis Codrington, who has been visiting Muamba in intensive care since the player collapsed 48-hours ago, told the AP that his friend has spoken "minimal words in English and French, which is better than nothing."

 

rumour is he's humming "joe le taxi"

[daventrywhites]

^{Everybody, & i mean everybody should read Assou-Ekotto's article in the Evening Standard. No doubt ghost written BUT puts it all in perspective. Well done to ALL in Football - rivalries put to one side - this tragic event could change the whole perception of football in the minds of the non football fan}

^{A source for real good!!!}

[jules_darby]

I like everyone else will take any improvement I can, but please remember he has a long, long way to go yet

 

Don't let up the thoughts, the positivity, the compassion, the common sense of wanting him to get better - you never know, it may just be helping

[richbwfc]

Sunderland players

 

Seems like each hour its getting more positive, certainly so much more than 24 and 48 hours ago.

 

Obviously a very long way to still go but lets hope we keep getting more of this positive news.

 

Come on Fab!

[JOGLER]

Feeling so much more positive after hearing the latest news, Come on Fabrice keep on improving pal ..... have you seen how much extra time the ref's adding?

[HomerJay]

Further statement from hospital at 7 and coyle at 9 apparently

Was sat watching the match at home with my 7year old and a couple of my mates. Never felt anything like it. Not sure wether to let my lad watch it or not. His understanding of the situation has upset me the most, he had complete understanding of the events and like everyone else sat there in disbelief as the hours unfolded. I'm not ashamed to say we both say there in tears however mine arrived on the news we had all been waiting for some 2 hours later. I've sat glued to the tv switching channel every 5 minutes waiting for positive news. Come on fab we are all rooting for you

[KP]

I would hope that on coming around, he could be shown the tributes on here, the tributes on every football message bored in the country, the tributes from real madrid, liverpool, sunderland and virtually every team in Europe somehow. I'm sure it would inspire him to continue his fight towards better health. Come on Fab!

[superjohnmcginlay]

Confirmed hes speaking in English anf French and he knows who people are!!

 

Yes Fab keep fighting it pal this is a miracle

[Traf]

Apparently Howard Webb should have been 4th official at Wolves yesterday, but was stood down by the PGMOL on the advice of a psychologist who advises them.

 

I thought that Webb handled the situation as best he could on Saturday, he remained in control and made sure Fab was seen to ASAP.

 

I shudder to think what might have been if the likes of Twattwell would have been in charge. He'd probably have booked Fab for diving.

 

#comeonfab.

[cheekybwfc]

Small steps, if he is speaking and recognising that's a major step in the right direction. Come on fab..
