Our captain Phil O'Donnell collapsed during the game.
Just back from the match and I've heard the terrible news that he's died in hospital.
RIP Phil O'Donnell.

RIP
Not that I am interested in conspiracy theories, but don't you guys find it strange that so many pro players died on the pitch this year?

RIP Phil O'Donnell, thoughts go out to his family.
Apparently he was being subbed, had he complained of chest pains?

Not according to our manager - I think it was just a coincidence, though his nephew David Clarkson was subbed later on as he was too shocked to continue playing.
