    He went down in the 38th minute after colliding with Accrington goalkeeper Ian Dunbavin and Tranmere's Lucas Akin.

    BBC now reporting it as a serious head injury. Apparently he was out cold for 25mins.

    ditto. You do not expect that sort of thing to happen. Sounds like the right call to abandon.

    He is on loan from Colchester - reports now say scans are all clear and it's just concussion. Lucky lad.

    His own keeper went to punch the ball full force and Tom Bender was pushed by the attacker (not intentionally I might add) straight into the keepers fist. It's bad enough to take a solid puch when standing still. God knows the force he got with the momentum.

    Glad he's looking okay. Must be awful for the lads family as they're so far away from him at the moment.

    Thankfully rare but a relief he is ok.
