If it had been Shawcross who had injured him, it would have been the main headline on the BBC 10 o'clock News, with Libya being mentioned second.

Personally, I thought they both flew into the tackle with Evans' feet slightly higher than Holden's! If Evans had ended up rolling and bleeding, Holden could have easily been given the red card.

I haven't seen it but from what you've said it sounds the same scenario as the Ryan/Ramsey one, ie it could have just as easily been Ryan with a broken leg but that wouldn't have made as good a story would it?

Thats bad news for them and a big loss for the semi final because imo he makes them tick.

Its exactly the same scenario mate only Shawcross never showed his studs whereas Evans did....I dont think Holden showed his studs though?

As we've always said mate, the Ramsey injury was a freakish accident. Tackles of that strength are made in every game (and on numerous ocassions) but normally the impact doesn't result in a serious injury. Sadly that is something Arsenal fans will never understand.

Nothing wrong with the tackle, just one of those things.
Sorry for the lad, top player but thank god he doesn't play for Wenger. He'd be calling for air strikes now.

Very sad always a shame when you see it happen to a young lad. Hopefully he'll back and playing next season. Good to see that Coyle has dealt with it a lot more maturely than Wenger did. On the subject of bad injuries Pilkington from Huddersfield who we were rumoured to be interested in has picked an awful one up. When he was interviewed he said players were in tears when they saw it. Hopefully he'll be playing again soon he looks a real prospect.

Not sure Jamo tbh but having had alook around their message boards they are not to happy with the prospect of Davies and Muamba in midfield at Wembley.

That is two broken legs two years in a row for Holden. Tough luck for my comPatriot. First DeJong in Holland now this.

I thought the tackle from Evans was reckless and deserved the red. Yes he went for the ball but he slid with both feet off the ground and studs up high. That kind of tackle is much more likely to end in an injury. Of course there is no mention of dirty players because it is Man U and they are above the law

I'm not surprised about Muamba but I have been impressed with what I've seen of Davies.

Taylor normally plays down one of the wings mate but he can play there but i would imagine Mark Davies would replace him ???

Its not the fact its a 50/50 tackle or was a accident, its the fact the media wont even mention this or have some hatred towards evans? The same they did with shawcross. Both were accident and wernt intentional yet rooney delibratly elbows someone on the pitch and gets sweet fuckall! Just because they are man united pathetic!

As a Bolton fan this is the worst possible news we could have imagined. He's easily, easily been our best player this season by more than a country mile.
Reading some of the comments on here makes me smile. "Hoping for better".
As a Bolton fan I'd not swap any one of your players for Holden. Had he not got injured and carried on as he was he was a 20M pound player and thats no exaggeration.
Anyways in terms of the semi final, we're fooked now so start booking your hotels for the final date. Your lot want shooting if you don't win now. Don't think we've won a game without Stuart this season!

Sarge/Werrington,
You're both right and although he's probably the right type, he hasn't really set the world alight at Bolton.
I'm still stuck in my ways as well, I wanted O' Hara and it hasn't changed!

I am "hoping for better" than Muamba. What's you view on him?

You'll find they were discussing our apparent interest in signing Muamba, nothing to do with Holden.
