Hughton on Hoddle
Brighton manager Chris Hughton spoke to Match of the Day following the news ex-England manager Glenn Hoddle had been taken ill and was in a "serious condition" in hospital.
Match of the Day presenter Gary Lineker speaking to BBC Sport when Leicester City won the Premier League: "I can't think of anything that surpasses it in sporting history. It is difficult to put over in words.
"I got emotional. It was hard to breathe. I was a season ticket holder from the age of seven. This is actually impossible."
Eye witness account
One man, who wished not to be named, but
has had a season ticket for over 40 years, said: "I saw Kasper Schmeichel
run out first and then loads of security guards and stewards.
"I was stood outside the ground but
it crashed on the other side.
"I hope everyone is OK."

Some words of support from BBC colleagues on Social Media:
Chairman Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha bought the club in 2010 for £39m and, after Leicester were promoted from the Championship in 2014, said he would spend £180m to get them into European competition in three years.
Leicester City went on to win the Premier League title in one of the greatest sporting stories of all time following Tottenham's 2-2 draw at Chelsea in May 2016.
Claudio Ranieri's side started the campaign as 5,000-1 outsiders for the title after almost being relegated the season before.
They lost just three league games in what was described as a "fairytale" and the "most unlikely triumph in the history of team sport".
The Srivaddhanaprabha family are well loved by the Leicester City community, largely in part to their involvement in the incredible season in which they were crowned champions of England in 2016.
Following that, the club's vice-chairman Aiyawatt Srivaddhanaprabha - the son of billionaire club owner and chairman Vichai - said Leicester City's Premier League title set a new standard for the whole of football and provided "inspiration for the whole world".
