Get well soon Sol: http://www.lutontown.premiumtv.co.uk/page/News/NewsDetail/0,,10372~919660,00.html
Hatters boss Mike Newell has revealed that defender Sol Davis suffered a stroke on Saturday on their way to Ipswich Town.
Davis, 27, is currently in a specialist unit at Addenbrookes hospital in Cambridge.
After seeing his side beaten 5-0 by Ipswich, Newell said: "I would like to put on record that Sol suffered a stroke on Saturday, 25 minutes after we left Luton on Saturday.
"We have kept that quiet until now but that puts everything into perspective. I don't want distorted reports or sensationalism and although we are not making excuses at all for our performance, our thoughts are all with Sol.
"I'm not sure if that has had an effect on the players, but it can't really have helped. Sol has made a bit of an improvement but he lost feeling in his left side and it has affected his speech.
"It was apparently a blockage to the brain that has caused it, but I will not go into full details as I am not sure what they are."
Everybody connected with Luton Town Football Club wishes Sol a speedy recovery.

Fuck me that is shocking!
I am sure we wish young Sol all the best. Hopefully it was only a mild stroke.
What I would say is that Teddy Bruschi, Linebacker for the New England Patriots (NFL team) suffered a mild stroke early last year. He is only 32. However he is back playing now. Even though it is very rare to suffer a stroke so young, I would imagine that being young and very fit must improve the chances of full recovery dramatically.
as for 'R Sol'??? That is way way way out of order village.

Sol is going to be out of action for around 6 months.

No wonder they got hammered. That must've been awful for the other players to see it all too.
All the best Mr Davis
