Who watched the channel 4 programme about him? What a smashing lad he is, with a smile to rival Jessica Ennis, a loving and lovely wife and a youngster to be proud of! While watching the programme, my thoughts were invaded by a question aimed at the BNP! "What is your problem?"
Lovely lad and that wonderful smile just brightens up any room! I'm so glad that he has fully recovered and is now getting on with his life. An inspirational figure who will go on to do great things.
Yet to see it, what's it called? Also, have any of you read his book? It's a great read and interesting going beyond the cardiac arrest. Only disappointment being that it could have been more detailed. Asking for it to be done in 5 weeks was a mistake.
I have a lot of time for Muamba, seems like a genuine bloke and very glad he's made a full recovery... ...but basically the poor bloke had a heart attack and now he's being given a reception like he's won the Victoria Cross. As I say, he seems like such a nice bloke and of course I'm delighted that he's well and can enjoy his family life etc, but how many young people have heart attacks and never recover? Perhaps a share of the nations sympathy should be reserved for them? I'm really sorry if this offends anyone, but it's my opinion and the OTT coverage is starting to tire me out a bit now - of course any coverage which involves his charity work is absolutely fine by me. Sorry guys.
I know where you are coming from CanariesSoccer, it is a little disproportianate and it can start to be OTT. the strictly thing really p*sses me off and should be binned, Bruce - give it over.
We are only saying that Muamba has thankfully recovered from a life threatening condition and applauding the way he has handled himself since. Nothing wrong at all in celebrating him for that and I find it a bit churlish of you to say otherwise. Yes we should all show our sympathy for those poor souls that don't survive but surely it is right to celebrate someone who has survived. He nearly lost his life in front of the eyes of the media and 1000s of fans on that day and his plight must surely be a source of inspiration in the future in raising awareness of cardiac problems in young men and women.
Yeah i totally appreciate that, I'm happy to accept my opinion is probably churlish. Just wanted to give an alternative viewpoint.
I think the reason there's been so much coverage of it is because it actually shows football in a good light for a change - Spurs and Bolton fans singing his name when he fell, dozens, or maybe even hundreds of players - from Messi to your average Joe in the Conference wearing messages of support on their t-shirts, and a real feeling of togetherness in the entire football community in order to help get him (literally!) on his feet. For me, it isn't a story about Fabrice Muamba. It's a story about how - when it comes to the really important things - football can provide the greatest and most united community in the world. Sorry about serving a double cheese sandwich with extra cheese there - but I think what I said is true. It really was a miracle.
