Wow. Fecked. Will be a solemn day at kickoff tomorrow.
Thoughts are with Leicester right now.

Just woke up this morning hoping is all a dream, cant feel my feet.
I dont understand, surely if he was okay, why didnt he get in touch with his family informing them his whereabout? This don't just add up.
Potentially any one of the very large list of mundane reasons a middle aged bloke doesn't get home when expected and fails to inform his family.
Can't think of a worse way to go. Thought with the families of those affected.
Isn't it quite bizarre though that almost 12 hours later there's not more of a statement?

This just bring to focus how fleeting this life is. Crazy empty world we live in.
My thoughts are with the victims and their families.
Been confirmed the owner was on board. Various reports just saying he had 'guests' with him. Very sad news
Strange that they have not commented. However, looking at those pictures after the fire has been out out, and there seems to be general confusion in general as to whom was on board, i think they just want to collect as much information as possible.
Pretty sad, he seemed a likeable guy. The only silver lining, if it can be called that in this situation, is that his son wasn't on board.
Btw, WTF does this morally bankrupt Red Issue have against Leicester's owner to celebrate his death? As far as I know, he has nothing to do with our club, not that it is an excuse for such stupidity anyway.
Horrible stuff. RIP, I've flown in helicopters a little bit and have never liked them. Really horrible tragedy and thoughts are with the affected.
Hang on, what is this about? Got a link? Horrendous form if true.
Google Red Issue. One of their tweets asked if the glazers have a helicopter. Cnuts (and I don’t mean the glazers).
Difficult to deal with this stuff in the dark I suppose. And not unreasonable to say nothing until they have informed families & completed the 'recovery' as they call it.
Plenty grim enough anyway & could even have been markedly worse.

Their tweet was absolutely horrible but it didn't celebrate the death of the Leicester City owner did it.
Such a tragedy. My thoughts are with Leicester and their fans.
They could be finding it hard to speak to all the families of those on board to tell them their loved ones have died. No worse a way to find out on the news and have other people tell you first.
True, they targeted Manchester United owners.
Any confirmation as to who all were on board, yet?
Edit: BBC confirms that the owner, Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha, was on board. Holy shit.
RIP.

BBC are saying Claude Puel might of been in there, there are some Italian and Spanish reports saying that Claude Puel was on board too, I really hope this isn't true. What a horrible tragedy...
Absolutely tragic news 
It’s disgusting that Manchester United fans, of all people, would use of an air traffic accident to comment on our own owners. Absolutely disgusting. Top reds
Absolutely awful news
Disgusted by Red Issue’s response. Utter pondlife and we should never give them any airtime on this website. Should be blacklisted.

At a football match on a Saturday the first thing that popped into my head was I bet he was on the piss and could've had a dead phone. Epecially since there was no reports of any fans injured in the car park as they would've been all gone home (see LCFC helicopter any home game its there, it takes off when the grounds are completely empty of stewards too).
Only just seen the news this morning. It the first time in years I haven’t taken much notice of football on a Saturday (was at a wedding). Then see the news firstly of the helicopter crash and then Glenn Hoddle as well.
Just puts football into perspective really.

Didn’t think it would affect me but it has. So tragic.
Awful news, only just hearing about it. Thoughts and best wishes to all directly and indirectly involved xx
I hope everyone unfollows Red Issue. Vile
hit them where it hurts. Unfollow and report them.
So sad. Thoughts with families and Leicester City fans. RIP.
Why would anyone be following this crap in the first place? I don't think any Man United fan want to be linked with these idiots in any way.
This.
It'd be disgusting for anyone to make light of a disaster like this, but for a club in which an aviation tragedy is so deeply ingrained into our culture... Absolutely pathetic and shameful
Red Issue's always been a cesspit. Full of those insufferable Top Red types.

The women's fixture against Leicester has also been postponed.
This is sure, helicopter are really dangerous
I watched that one, doesn’t look like the best helicopter ever built
You’d be surprised. They’ve had over 600 likes on their tweet!
There’s bound to be one or two on here too thinking the comments are too PC. There always is
22 years and 6 days ago from when Chelsea exec Matthew Harding died in a helicopter (leaving a game) accident.
BBC are now reporting that the Leicester owner was on the helicopter.

I’m not one for faux outrage at all, and find some of the bile directed at people pointing out the irony of Hoddle’s situation way OTT.
The lack of self-awareness these tossers are guilty of is quite unbelievable though. Top Reds indeed
