    has offered to arrange to take Emiliano Sala's body back to Argentina for the family, so he can rest with them there.

    A very great gesture IMHO.

    That’s how I see it as well. It’s not a gesture at all it’s simply the thing to do

    Heres hoping Mr. Tan charters a more adequate plane this time around and not a single prop...

    It is the right thing to do, it would also have been the right thing to do for both Cardiff and Nantes to have paid for the recovery operation to have continued to try and find the pilots body, it appears to me that once they found Sala they just stopped the search, I may be wrong,they may not have but as much as it's a terrible tragedy for all involved it as come across on the TV that the main effort was locating just Sala RIP

    The private search stopped as soon as they found plane. We don't really have enough info to judge anything further.

    Mr Tan and Cardiff had nothing to with that flight the player made his own arrangements. If he has asked the club I'm sure they would have booked him on a seat on a commercial flight. The suggestion seems to be that the player didn't want to wait and wanted to make training the morning after to make a good Impression.

    What do you mean 'this time round'? Mr. Tan had nothing to do with chartering that flight.

    By simply responding with a message of zero substance, as you have done.

    Are you going to try again with your idea that Vincent tan chartered the wrong plane?

    You may have inferred that
    And again... You see, people very quickly jump to conclusions these days. Nowhere in my original post did I accuse Mr. Tan of having chartered the original flight, me saying "this time around" meant that he will charter this one, as opposed to the first flight chartered by the player himself which had such terrible consequences.

    I never said Mr. Tan chartered the first flight.
