    I read it here.... Schumacher skiing injury ‘not very serious’ despite initial reports (via TheJournal.ie) http://thescore.thejournal.ie/michael-schumacher-skiing-accident-1242333-Dec2013/

    I really dont think AH is appropriate for this.

    Hoping he pulls through. A fierce competitor and too young for his family to be facing this at christmas at a family holiday.

    100% agree - there is a thread over in the motors forum.

    That seems to have been superceded unfortunately.

    Critical condition bbc news update there.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,687 ✭✭✭✭Penny Tration


    Sky News have reported that he is in a coma.

    Devastating news for his family. Fingers crossed that he pulls through.

    You'd be surprised. AH can more than hold it's own with the serious fora, when it wants to.

    Sometimes I like to give AH the benefit of the doubt. There doesn't have to be a pile of muppetry in every thread. :)

    He's taken a turn for the worse.

    although very precisely.

    I know it's AH but have some respect.

    I don't care.
    If you were in a coma would it be ok to post "funny" comments because your family wouldn't read it?


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,962 ✭✭✭✭dark crystal


    How awful.

    Isn't this the same type of accident that killed both Sonny Bono and Natasha Richardson?

    Really hope the poor guy pulls through.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 445 ✭✭rwg


    Dear god - political correctness in AH :rolleyes: - what next

    There goes my benefit of the doubt anyway.

    No. I was the one who started this thread and its wasn't for tasteless jokes. It was to discuss the accident of one of the great sports people of our time. So I would ask for a bit of respect please.

    Thought it would go without saying, apparently not...
    Keep it tasteful people.

    This is hard to take; the news reports are not offering much hope here; the man is a legend.

    Doesnt mean that you have to be a dick about someone being seriously ill. Grow up, would you.

    Get well soon Schumi.

    Natasha Richardson's accident/death is being compared to this as the same type of injury.

    Hope he pulls through, how awful for his family to be going through this :(
