Genuine question….. would the full fee still be payable if we went into admin ? I’m sure Derby had to pay out all remaining transfers fees in full regardless of administration

Administration isn't bankruptcy so they would still have to pay, but they may have been able to renegotiate payment terms with creditors.

Administration is an option that no right thinking fan would wish on the club and I do not believe Vincent Tan would wish it either and would do everything to avoid it.

Remember as well that the club has already made provision in the accounts for over £21m should the Sala case be lost so it would impact on cash but not on profits and would be unlikely to cause a Profitability and Sustainability problem with EFL.

In answer to your question though, yes transfer fees would have to be paid in full as football rules require all football debts to be treated with "super priority" ahead of all other creditors and a club can`t come out of Administration with complying with that.

I am guessing here but Cardiff must think they have a fairly good chance of winning the CAS hearing , otherwise wouldn’t they have just come to some amicable arrangement with FC Nantes ?

They must have spent about %15 of the transfer fee in legal fees so far .

I think they must do.

Re: Transfer- the emiliano sala story- new 9 part podcast on bbc sounds

I understood it to be £15m (although a Euros figure) to be paid in three annual instalments - not £5m with another £10m based on 'add on' factors like appearances.

As others have said Emiliano Sala's registration had either been transferred to Cardiff or was still held by Nantes at the time of his death. That will be a matter of legal fact determined by CAS or a civil court. The insurers will be driving the legal process. If it is determined that Sala was a Cardiff player there will probably be series of new cases to follow - to claim compensation from those (or their insurers) who arranged the flight.

IIRC fee was £15m/€17m

Has anyone mentioned the taxi scenario yet?

Only looked at the first page with some wild opinions on how transfers work

Just listened to the latest podcast , Sala was on €48,000 per month at FC Nantes , Cardiff we’re going to pay him £50,000 per week.

Have listened to first 3. Nothing new really, but bit eerie to hear voice notes from Sala.

He definitely wasn’t all that keen on coming really, seemed to love his life in France.

Not sure where they’re going to go with the remaining episodes, feels pretty covered.

It's just a really hard listen.
It's crazy to think that Henderson could be out of prison this month while many are obviously still mourning this boy.
The lad should never have been on that plane, although I appreciate that's stating the fvcking obvious.

3 episodes in. Not bad but significantly more posts on this thread about the build up than since it actually started. So either people arent listening or they are but don't think much worth debating.

So far i think its decent so not going to knock it as its not awful but just a summary of what we already know really?

Give it time. There are 9 episodes. I’m sure there will be plenty to talk about in due course.

I can't understand how Ibbotson took the risk in the first place, at the airport he must have seen the weather, he knew on the way to France the plane was making a warning noise and that there was a large bang, and that he was rusty on how to land that type of plane?

Why did he risk his life he was a 59 year old man, by that age you have life experience, you just ring Henderson and say I’m not getting in that thing, send someone to have it checked over, i'm get an easy jet flight home.

Then I also can't understand why Emiliano got on the plane, why didn't he just ring Warnock or his team and say they've sent a death trap, I’ll be home a day late I have to take the flight from Paris?

They were both reckless it was so unnecessary, it doesn't make sense at all, I’ve heard Ibbotson was skint, but you shouldn't risk your life for a few quid?

I am. Im enjoying it.

Was just making an observation there was far more talk about it before it started than since it actually did start. Maybe that's the intention though.

Not sure calling sala reckless is the way to go here.......

No maybe not the right words, but if you've listened to it, you will know he made a serious error of judgment, he was very scared and didn't think it was safe yet still got on the plane, I can't understand how either of them took such a massive risk?
