It is right to follow his Doctors' advice. Hopefully he can have an enjoyable, productive long life. Very sad. I think Chelsea owe us a happy night on Friday night and if we win we should dedicate it to Ryan.

I would not have enjoyed seeing Ryan put himself at risk on the pitch.this is the best decision for him and his family.i hope he goes on to achieve success in an other area of the game.

This. I don't think I could have watched him take such a big risk. Especially after seeing the scar photo.

The Spurs lobbying has already begun for a testimonial
match at new WHL. Spurs vs Hull would be appropriate.

Well, he played more games for Swindon and Yeovil than he did for us. Maybe a Spurs Xi vs a combined team made up of players he's played with in the past?

Wait to see what the Spurs supporter sentiment is on
this first regarding a game at new WHL (Levy apparently
does not like testimonial games, period) .

I suppose it isn't really a testimonial, it's more of a benefit game. I imagine he's made enough money not to have to work again, but it's a nice gesture. Maybe he can ref?
 
Might be a daft question but why didn’t it hurt Arsenal’s Cahill as much? Is the forehead that much harder than where it hit Mason? Was it his temple area?

I don’t mean anything by it, just you’d assume both would be really hurt.

I have seen a photograph of it. If that still was produced in court you would be serving time. Cahill, eyes closed, smashed his forehead into the side of Masons, resulting in eight fractures of the skull.
 
Didn't Cahill also hospitalise Per Mertesacker in a Charity Shield match and even one of his own players once ( Luiz ? )

He's not safe.

Rather than for the benefit of Ryan himself, perhaps (some of) the proceeds of any such game should go to the NHS, who saved his life. (I know that his aftercare and rehab will have been private, but there's no private A&E!)
