Sorry. It just says: "Sean Prunty sent home due to a heart problem and will more than likely be out for a couple of months."

Hopefully he'll be back soon.

**De Town** · 17/02/2008, 5:17 PM

Get well soon Prunts. LTFC legend.

**Longfordian** · 17/02/2008, 5:33 PM

Heard that during the week alright, apparently he has to stop all training until further tests are done. Seems to be a similar situation to Dave Freeman last year. Hope he's back in action before long.

yea read that article meself he was sent home from drogs training camp in spain and was told to stay away from training until further tests are carried out..hopefully its just precautionary and that sean will be back playing before long because he is an absolute hero

**Martinho II** · 17/02/2008, 5:57 PM

awful sorry to hear about sean. was out at the mall this morning to see the lads train and sean was seen coming out of the mall. Whoever wrote that article in the daily mail on thursday about sean prunty has jinxed him im afraid...

Wonder who it is? hmmm....

hopefully sean will come back soon in full health...

btw a coloured lad came in fifteen mins late to the training session and aaron crossed his hands at him and said you cant train you are late!

believe they are training at the mall tommorrow nite at seven if anyones interested in going? ronnies best mate is on trial with them at the moment Adrian Cregg who used to play with Galway Utd...

was fierce impressed with the quality of the training. twenty four people trained which went on for nearly two hours till twelve.. gradually gettin used to the new faces...

A lot of these scares end up being muscular based problems in the chest area as opposed to heart trouble.

My own son had a similar scare and returned fully to the game after a battery of tests and about a six week break.

Hopefully Sean will have a similar outcome.

**Sonic** · 18/02/2008, 2:41 PM

Yeah heard myself that he had to give up the game. You hear all sorts of dodgy rumours but to say hell be back in a couple of months if all goes well is good to hear. Everyone at longford town is very fond of him so its good to hear it may not be as serious as first heard. Fingers crossed!

**Pauro 76** · 19/02/2008, 2:43 PM

Only read about that just now, a bit of a shock, get well soon Sean.

**The Lilywhites** · 22/02/2008, 9:48 AM

According to Drogheda's forum, Sean's career is unfortunately over as a result of this.

Very sad

**Maz** · 22/02/2008, 9:52 AM

Its not looking good admittedly but nothing confirmed as over yet. He has to sit tight until more tests are completed

Here's hoping things work out for him. Quality player and seems a nice lad too.

**Maz** · 22/02/2008, 9:56 AM

An absolute gentleman, hopefully these tests will give some hope!

**Martinho II** · 22/03/2008, 1:03 PM

**RonnieB** · 22/03/2008, 1:33 PM

We all dream of a team of Sean Pruntys!

Hope he can go back playing, was a legend for us. All the best sean.

**De Town** · 22/03/2008, 4:20 PM

Would love to see him back playing alright, absolute Legend.

**Martinho II** · 20/04/2008, 9:22 PM

see that there was a piece in todays news of the world on sean prunty.. it looks like he is goin to retire... he is in discussions with drogheda utd and the fai re compensation.

hope the powers that be at our club will employ him as a coach bit like charles mbazi livingstone at pats...

**Longfordian** · 20/04/2008, 9:26 PM

He's going to have to retire alright. I'd love to see him back here in some shape or form but there probably wouldn't be a lot of money to pay him. It'd be good if he got some kind of farewell game or something, it'll be gutting for him to have to give it up.
