He is being held at Swansea Central police station, South Wales Police said.

The comments appeared on the Twitter account @liamstacey9, which has since been taken down.

While the feed was still visible comments claimed that his account had been hacked.

Other users of the micro-blogging service responded with outrage to the remarks.

Muamba, 23, was rushed to hospital after suffering what appears to have

been a heart attack on the pitch before 36,000 horrified spectators last

night.



He is currently in critical condition in hospital.


The footballer's illness has prompted a wave of support and prayers from both fans and others in the world of football.



A police spokesman said: "South Wales Police have arrested a 21-year-old

male from the Pontypridd area in connection with racially offensive

comments made on the social media site Twitter.

"The male is currently being held in custody at Swansea Central Police station. There is no further information at this time."

Both Swansea University and Treorchy RFC, where the suspect is believed

to have played rugby, have made statements condemning the comments on

his Twitter feed.



"We disassociate ourselves from any racist remarks," a Swansea University spokesman said.



"We are an equal opportunities university and will be looking into this

matter. We will of course cooperate fully with any police

investigation."



Treorchy RFC said it was "aware" of the comments made by the player.



"The club wishes to completely disassociate itself from these comments

and will be carrying out a full investigation into this matter," it said

in a statement.



"The club values its position and reputation within the local community

and the wider rugby community and at all times encourages our members to

treat others with dignity and respect.

  • Pity people who call themselves the viking rape, I don't even want to think why he called himself that.

    You can block me when You start losing your racist argument, but guess what, I have the freedom to say what I like, especially on liveleak.

    Did my mention of AN LBC radio presenter and SKYNEWS presenter I recomended contact Hayden re: hosting spook you.

    I hope so.

    • @karrion Theres no difference in tracing an IP as there is tracing a registration plate on your car.
      You knock someone down,someone notes your plate your getting a call, spew vile bile while a 23/4 year old man is technically dead online expect a knock, your adress is there, it's called an IP for all the dummies.

    • @_ATL_ But nobody is going to arrest you for talking shit in your car. So some person is in critical condition- that doesn't justify arresting people for thought crime. Nothing does. Talking shit is what the internet is for. People who don't like it can close the window.

      Vile spewing as you mentioned is not the same as running someone over in your car.

    • @wellybub That's your point of view, I don't agree while i'm watching a young man man being given CPR and the "clear zapp" to the chest, Common decency must come into play. But if your happy to say Die Ni***r that's up to you.

  • Retarded to think it, say it, and get arrested for doing it.

    • @KutKorners "Getting arrested" is something that is done to you by others. It does not fall on you. It is the people doing the arresting who are retarded, and the people supporting them. Because they don't get that if they arrest one person simply for saying something they don't like, you could be next, because who knows what they will decide that they don't like tomorrow.

    • @matspur32 what he said, I said but in a much shorter sentence. I did not state he was retarded for getting arrested, I said it was retarded to be arrested for something such as this.

  • The UK has been going down the toilet with regards to civil and human rights. Enjoy your upcoming civil war! What you are dong is NOT progress! It is creeping fascism. You are in deep already. Just look at the state of you!

    • @wellybub I wouldn't really be in the business mocking a potential civil war if i were you. Not when you look at the state Scania is in. That's if you still consider it Swedish territory anymore.

  • race hate in these days, I had hoped we had learnt our lesson but no, I see so much race hate especially from Americans. Bit sad really, if you have not worked out that Black people are here to stay and just get on with them like any other human being then you are the actual problem.

    Hating a person for their colour is ILLOGICAL, hating a person for their actions isn't...

    • @boofhead

      I completely agree. It is a free country and you have the right to be a douchebag if you so choose. This guy, despite being an ass, was merely expressing his opinion.
