Must admit, immediate thoughts were that it might have been something sinister. Doesn't seem likely though, probably an illness. Hope he's okay.

Yeah, same as Fuller tbh. A lot of things have been said about him by Pakistanis, and they are less than complementary.

Woolmer, 58, was discovered lying on the floor of his room, with vomit around him, at 10.45am and was taken by ambulance to hospital at 11.50am. "We have taken Bob Woolmer to the hospital and he is in the emergency ward," Pakistan team media manager Pervez Mir told AFP.
That's on the cricinfo commentary in the England v Canada game.

Apparently he was found 4 hours ago and taken to hospital 3 hours ago, and is still unconcious. Seems rather serious, with that in mind.

Ja, one can come up with all sorts of theories regarding the timing.. But that shouldnt be done until we know he's alright, or otherwise.. God what an incredible week..

Could be anything really. Let's just hope it's nothing serious.

Heard on Radio 4 that he is in a critical/serious condition in Hospital, dire news.

Well that's what I'm gathering, unless they're chucking in quotes suggesting he isn't exactly happy coaching Pakistan because they're bored.

Wow, he looked really forlorn yesterday. He must have been having some personal problems . Best wishes to him and his family. Hopefully he gets some professional help if this is true.
