GORDON DURIE was rushed to hospital last night after a mystery collapse.

The East Fife manager was stretchered from the ­dressing room after players raised the alarm when he blacked out ­following a match.

Friends said Durie, 46, was still in hospital as doctors ran a series of tests.

Durie, who starred for Rangers and Scotland, complained of feeling unwell after watching his team draw 0-0 at home with Queen of the South.

Minutes later, he fainted in the shower in front of his shocked players, who raised the alarm with the club’s ­doctor.

Durie received medical treatment at Bayview Stadium in Methil before being stretchered out to an ambulance.

He was taken to Victoria Hospital in Kirkcaldy, where he was kept in for ­observation.

East Fife chairman Sid Collumbine last night said the Rangers nine-in-a-row hero had suffered a mini-seizure before he blacked out.

He added that Durie, who suffers from asthma, had started to feel better after treatment by medics at the club’s ground.

Collumbine said: “Everyone was in a panic when Gordon collapsed.

“We mangaged to get the club doctor and an ambulance to him quickly.

“Gordon was starting to feel better when he was being taken out on a stretcher but the paramedics weren’t taking any chances and insisted he go to hospital.

“We’re not sure what caused him to collapse but it was some sort of mini-seizure.”

Durie, who played 43 times for Scotland and starred for Tottenham and Chelsea, took over as manager of the Second Division team in March.

He was last night ­recovering in hospital, where his condition was described as stable.

Get well soon.

Wishing him a speedy recovery. I can remember years ago at Killie, I think, the Jukebox took a bad head knock, tried to play on then fell to the ground. Was horrible watching.
