Sala

[Red Hadron Collider]

Nantes will be pleased now I guess, they can start to push for payment again now, i know there there's a contract that won't now be honoured and payments that need to be paid but now isn't the ****ing time to be making demands or even thinking about it to be honest. Putting the footballing thing to one side, there are two devastated familes here, one of whom has finally got some closure, the other sadly not as yet. Unfortunatley due to the circumstances surrounding this, it has made headline news in numerous countries. Nantes would do well to remember this, they aren't painting themselves in a very good light in my opinion. I'm pretty sure Cardiff wouldn't be asking for their money back if they'd paid the whole lot up front so Nantes of course are entitled to payment but can they not just keep it out of the public eye and let the insurance companies sort it out.

RIP Sala and we can only hope that the pilot's body is found also.

They're french. They don't understand good taste

The strange thing for me is that they have eyewitness reports of red flares going off on the evening of the crash and the pilots body hasn't been found.

"Sightings of red flares were reported during a lifeboat and helicopter search, but "nothing of significance was found", a Channel Islands Air Search spokeswoman said."

Obviously anything could have happened but you'd hope it wasn't the case that one of them/both survived the crash in the plane and managed to get the flares off before passing.

Tragic news though but at least one of the families has some closure now.

I think they determined there was no red flare, but vapour trails unrelated to the crash.

Just read the sad news about Sala's father passing away from a heart attack, horrible horrible news for the family.
