I have a very dark humour image in my head of someone in the club calling the insurance company as the news was breaking, while the insurance side have one eye on sky sports news

I thought the claim was more to do with a duty of care as the clubs insurers. Something like they should have given the club advise as this is how all players have been insured ie at a certain stage and that if this was a possibility they should have advised them to insure players at an earlier stage? Or something like that?

All sounds a bit desperate.

You jest but football finance expert Kieran Maguire could hardly contain his laughter the other week when he said Cardiff are pursuing a 100million in lost earnings (Sala's goals would have kept us up) but are not sure who they are going to sue for it yet!!

Sala presumably

I doubt whether even Vinnie would dare to sue Sala's estate by claiming he was negligent in choosing to climb aboard a plane he didn't believe was safe.

That sounds entirely plausible. After all, wasn't the club's main defence against the FIFA ruling a claim that the transfer wasn't complete because City officials had made a mess of the player's contract?

Yes along those lines, I'm more surprised that people are surprised that the broker rebuffed it and didn't just say, good point, who do we make the £ 10 million cheque payable to?
