Clive Clarke, on loan from Sunderland.

Thoughts are with him and his family - I know it's wrong, but I cannot rid the Puerta scenario from my mind at present. Let's hope for a happier ending than poor Antonio.

Leicester Statement:

Leicester City Chief Executive Tim Davies has confirmed that Tuesday night's Carling Cup second round clash with Nottingham Forest was abandoned at half-time after left-back Clive Clarke collapsed in the dressing room.

Forest were leading the game 1-0 through a Junior Agogo goal but after a lengthy delay, club officials from both sides agreed that the best course of action was to postpone the encounter.

Forest boss Colin Calderwood made the announcement on the pitch alongside Martin Allen in full view of the 16,000 strong crowd.

Davies said: "Clive Clarke collapsed in the dressing room at half-time and our thoughts and prayers are with Clive and his family at this current time.

"He is on his way to hospital as we speak; he is not very well but at least he's talking which he wasn't at one point.

"I'd like to thank Nottingham Forest, the referee for their prompt action in helping us to call off the match and I'd like to apologise to the fans but I'm sure they will understand that this is a very difficult time for everyone."

I have to agree with G-Star, when I heard this the first thing I thought off was the Antonio Puerta case :eek: I really hope its nothing too serious and he makes a full recovery.
