Apparently he's had an epileptic fit at half time but he's ok now. Didn't go to hospital. Hopefully he's ok.

Seems this was the case again today unfortunalty

Agar says so,but he is o.k. now,good news.

James Smailes twitter - Kirk had an epileptic fit at half time but ok now, not gone to hospital. Fitz out with shoulder injury, may be back next week

You dont watch many hull games then you clown..go away and get your weekly bath, ready for arts an craft 1st lesson in morning.

Can i just congratulate our supporters on having a go at mick vella who has fought back from cancer. You must be very proud.!

(a) Don't be so pathetic. No-one mentioned his illness in a derogatory manner.

(b) Why do you pretend to be a Hull fan on RLFans and a Rovers fan on The Hull Daily Mail website?

god i hate sticking up for hull fans but i dont think any fc or rovers fan has a go at vella or yeaman for their illness,its all meant harmlessly to put players off their game and illnesses aside.
Players that play after and during illnesses are very special people.

Comeonyoull.I thought the thread was on the misfortunes of kirk yeaman not rovers.?

Comeonyoull.Just noticed your mention of the hdm.I thought it was quite a novel name,the difference is I have spelt cemetery correctly,he hasn't.!

Right DOPEY...just read thread and people was having a pop at Vella before they knew his condition as original poster never said what he had recoverd from...after it was stated you can see that people was praising him....your the one who is trying to score cheap shots by mentioning conditions.Bet you have missed all the posts in support of Prekkie and pete stephenson...the condolances posts of Toppo,the 2 tragic deaths of the Wakey players,Mike Gregory and Paul Derbyshire.....we have posted on those threads as RL FANS...now pi$$ off.

Kirk Yeaman is a tough man and a good player.

For us Rovers fans he's the player we love to hate. Which of course means he must be quite good otherwise why bother.

After today's news I have nothing but respect for the bloke. The positive side of this is that others with this condition can draw inspiration. They can do this because Kirk will be back, most probably even next week, continuing to prosper at the very top level in his sport.
