    Fingers crossed it’s not too serious
  • BT Sport have cancelled the whole programme so must be serious

    Agree, otherwise why cancel whole programme

    Get well soon Glen

    Unbelievable player back in his day

    I hope he's ok, one of my biggest fears is to die at work and one of the best midfielders England has ever produced should not leave the earth like that

    Get well soon Mr Hoddle

    It must be serious even mentioned it on soccer Saturday.
  • Very worrying, I hope it isn't as serious as it sounds

    Horrible news. One of the best English players in my lifetime and a very good coach.

    Get well, and soon, Glenn.

    I was at Wembley as well when Glenn Hoddle scored on his England debut. Hope he pulls through.

    Me too! Game was called off the night before due to fog! My first ever game at Wembley.

    Despite following Arsenal as a kid (I grew out of it!), Hoddle was my footballing idol and hero. Every Sunday with my mates, round on the local green, I insisted that I was Hoddle when we selected players to imitate.

    Thoughts are with him.

    Hope he pulls through. Not old enough to remember him playing but one of my favourite England managers.
  • Any news on what's happened to him? Hoping he's ok. I grew up in Swindon and he did a great job getting the club miraculously to the Premier League before leaving for Chelsea.

    Good luck Glenn

    There are some YouTube videos of him and he would spray the ball around using both feet and some of his goals were amazing.

    Hope it’s nothing too serious and just a scare. Get well soon Glenn.

    Hope he gets well soon, one of the most gifted players this country’s ever produced.

    bear with this story .. BT has a 'Savage Show' at midday Saturday .. today, Hoddle and the usual suspects were taking part in a 'fun' quiz .. the penalty for not answering a question was to cuddle or at least hold a giant lizard, a live one, or a python brought into the studio by a 'reptile expert' .. (I AM NOT MAKING THIS UP) ..
    Hoddle got a question wrong and absolutely freaked out at the prospect of holding a giant lizard, about the size of (say) a medium sized cat or dog .. and I mean he FREAKED .. this can have done his blood pressure no good at all .. get well soon Glenn
  • Should have been an England manager for a longer period bar the bollox talk.
    Would loved to have seen him bring through beckham, Gerrard, lampard, Scholes, Terry, rio, Owen. Cole.

    No big name square pegging, you do what your told.

    Could have been a golden era :)
