If there is "no agreement to honour" then why was Sala on an ill-fated flight to Cardiff?
If Billionaire Vincent Tan doesn't end up paying Nantes £15m, how does that benefit you?
Take a look outside the echo chamber that Mike Morris built and see what opinions are out there.
I remember reading this echo chamber after the Bournemouth game, where some of the daft sods who have long lost any grip on reality started asking questions like "Are we [Cardiff] now more respected in the football world". If it wasn't so pathetic and self-indulgent, it would be cute. The answer is no. Good luck trying to sign players for cash in advance in the future.
Jennywren,
Sala was on that ill fated flight because he was travelling from Nantes to Cardiff to be at a pre-arranged meeting on the Tuesday morning, we are all led to believe that the meeting was to commence training with the Cardiff squad but if he had "no agreement to honour" with Cardiff FC maybe he was flying to Cardiff to sample Cockles & lava bread from Barry Island.
' Billionaire ' Vincent Tan ( According to his published wealth he is a $ billionaire ($1.3b, but that is only £997,300,000 so he isn't quite a UK Billionaire but he is a multi-billionaire in Malaysia @ 5.2b MYR ) though he could easily afford to pay £15,000,000 from his wealth.
My point is: Millionaires & Billionaires don't get that status from throwing their money away so VT will hold onto his £15m for as long as he physically can......as soon as the AAIB report gets published I am guessing he will then appraise whether to pay Nantes or not or whether to start litigation on those instrumental in causing Sala's demise.
14 years ago one of our factories burnt down.
It was a 25000 square foot facility with hundreds of thousands of pounds worth of stock in it and hundreds more of equipment.
For the next 2 years I couldn’t fart without asking the insurance company first.
It was horrendous and had an effect on me which lasts to this day. I thought I was going to lose everything that I and my family had worked for.
God knows how it must feel when there is a life involved and such huge amounts of money and publicity.
So many people having their opinion with absolutely no idea what is really going on.
Many of whom just warping it to fuel their agendas.
Sad how some just can’t wait and see what happens, but are so bitter that they can’t resist making judgement without having a clue what they are talking about.
Personally I don’t care who pays what, I just feel desperately sort for that lad , the pilot and their families.
The financial side of it can be sorted by the people paid to deal with it - in time.
Don't forget there are fans who are genuinely upset about the tragedy and couldn't give a monkeys about the fall-out and all the speculation.
There's a lad of about twenty who sits next to me. He was sobbing after the minutes reflection at the CCS.
I sincerely hope the lad will get all the help and support he'll need if and when he loses somebody close to him. After all, if he was sobbing over the death of a professional footballer he never saw play and one who the club he supports is allegedly attempting to claim never even signed for them, then he's going to need all the help he can get.
You know feck all about the young lad's personal circumstances, yet you still get your rocks off by putting other people down.
The lad may have lost someone very close to him and he may have been upset by association. You don't know.
You're just a bully.
Virtually every post you make is an attempted put down.
You repeatedly say how rubbish we are, yet you 'supported' Cardiff when we were in basement playing a damn sight worse than this.
You may never regularly come back to support Cardiff (wishful thinking from the majority on here), but you have repeatedly banged the drum like a Duracell bunny, that will never attend a home City game while Tan is owner.
Grow up.
agreed - millions of people wept over Princess Diana only a very small percentage ever met her and probably only a handful actually knew her...
You can be overcome my emotion of an event or a collective outpouring of emotion doesn't mean you hyper-sensitive.
Christ I cried when Bambi's mum died but I still like a venison steak.
Yeah a sarcastic response to someone showing emotion you know nothing about. That’s the sort of reaction that makes a lot of men hold back on speaking up when depressed. Don’t think it was overly harsh but needless especially in a situation you know nothing about.
This 100%!!
Comments like we should just pay up and claim off the insurance are laughable. As if it would ever be that easy.
Such things are never ever straightforward. But its hard to imagine a set of circumstances more complicated than this. Of course its going to take ages to sort out.
Some of the comments in this thread are very distasteful.
I didn’t know your friend who died but I was genuinely moved by the story and the respect the club showed him...
There are a number of posts in this thread criticizing your vile post... I have no idea why you posted it... care to explain in your own indecisive way?
