Bolton chairman Phil Gartside and manager Owen Coyle visited the player on Monday morning.
Gartside said: "I ask for everybody to keep Fabrice in their prayers and thoughts."
In a statement on the club's website, Gartside added: "The staff at the London Chest Hospital have been nothing short of exceptional and I would like to thank them all at this ongoing critical time.
"The support that we had from Tottenham and our own fans was fantastic - the staff, the fans, the players and the officials at the game - it was unbelievable."

Muamba's fiancee Shauna Magunda, the mother of his son Joshua, has thanked well-wishers for their support.
"Where there is life there is hope," she tweeted on Monday.
Earlier she said: "Please keep praying for Fabrice, it's really helping I can feel it."

Just on Sky News, he's stable but still critical.

When my OH had his heart attack, his condition was described the same for the first 48 hours, even though he was up and walking around.

My thoughts and prayers are for Fabrice and his family, I know exactly what they are going through right now, as last August my daughter at the age of 23 suffered a sudden cardiac arrest while swimming, thankfully she survived and with an ICD fitted she is now living a normal life again, my prayers are that Fabrice will be able to do the same xx

Thanks Joy, just been watching it on the news. Doctors are not concerned about his heart as he is an athlete, but they can't comment on any other damage that may have been done. Let's hope that the CPR he received immediately minimised the risk.

Speaking outside the hospital on Sunday afternoon, Bolton manager Owen Coyle said: "From our end, and on behalf of the family, we certainly want to say thanks to everybody.

"Everybody is praying for Fabrice which is very important and that has been a real source of strength to the family.

"We know it's such a difficult time for everybody involved, our thoughts are with Fabrice's family."

FABRICE MUAMBA - CLUB STATEMENT
Posted 18 March 2012 12:03am
The thoughts of everyone at the Club continue to be with Fabrice Muamba and his family after it was confirmed this morning that the player remains in a critically ill condition in intensive care.

Club Chairman, Daniel Levy, said: "Our thoughts are with Fabrice's family and Bolton Wanderers and we are all willing him to pull through. Events such as this put everything into perspective.

"We are immensely proud and grateful to the medical teams at both clubs, their response was immediate and professional. Our thanks also to both sets of fans for their support and behaviour. Too often we read the negatives about football and yet last night, at a time of intense emergency and uncertainty, we saw the true humanity and empathy of the footballing family."

Manager Harry Redknapp said: "All our thoughts are with Fabrice, his family, Owen Coyle and the Club. It was the right decision to abandon the game, everybody was in a state of shock and it wouldn't have been right to carry on. Football is the last thing on anyone's mind when an awful situation such as this happens. All we are thinking about now is Fabrice and his family."

Thank you GR for reinstating this thread. As others who did not see what happened last night, you can now see that there was no possible reason for the OP to have been RRd.

Continued thoughts and prayers for Fabrice Muamba.
