Ian, do you remember that Spanish player that suffered a similar seizure and died on the field no less than a year ago? I believe he was Segunda Division, but you might have more relevant data on it.

it was the primera division, antonio puerta of Sevilla in the game against Getafe at the Ramon Sanchez Pijuan stadium in Seville. The guy was like 22 I think and was pretty much on line for a call up to the spanish national side again when he just keeled over on the pitch. They took him off & none of us knew what'd happened but I had a gut feeling something wasn't right & at halftime he had a heart attack and ended up in hospital, but he died a few days later. So ing sad, he was a great young player, exciting to watch and would've most likely been in the spain squad for euro 2008, which is why when they won, Sergio Ramos who was a youth team player with him at Sevilla until being sold to real madrid wore a t-shirt in his memory which he showed at the end of the game.
Actually, just noticed it was 12 months ago yesterday (28th) that it happened.
video of him & what actually happened. RIP Sir.
Also others have happened, including Marc-Vivien Foe who had just played with Man City for the season before collapsing of a heart-attack playing for Cameroon in the confederations cup.
And also Phil O'Donnell last season, captain of Motherwell, ex celtic player too
