On the payment of the transfer fee issue .
Doesn't the player get a cut of the fee which I would assume in this case would go to his family ?
So by not paying up Cardiff are doing the family out of money due to them as well

The agents usually, and I'd probably guess in some instances the players as well.
But it'd probably veer from sale to sale and the conditions stipulated in the sale agreement/contract.
I certainly don't think it is standard that players get a part of the fee, unless something is agreed with either you existing club or the buying club.
Tragic. You could see how much pain Emiliano’s disappearance caused him, I felt for him more than anybody else during the whole saga.
A truly tragic situation for the family.
RIP
RIP
Very sad. His son's death probably broke him. Hopefully they are together now.
Such a tragic series of events.
Ah man. So, so sad.
At least Sala got to become what he dreamed - a professional footballer who was loved and respected, and at least his Father got to see his beautiful Son grow into a successful, strong athlete.
May they both Rest In Peace, and be reunited with each other now.
And thoughts and love to their remaining family, I hope they can get through this.

Cant imagine what that family have already been through and now this.
Its very sad,you could see how devastated his father was when his son died.
My thoughts are with the rest of the family.

Very very murky. Haven't found the body of the "pilot". And now the father is found dead with a "heart problem". A Premier League player doesn't just get on a dodgy plane with a dodgy pilot and fly across the channel during bad weather on a Monday evening. All very very strange.
How much can this family take? So sad.
Sad news.
That's rotten luck. Poor man. RIP.
I thought sign on fees had become standard practice?
Aren't Cardiff disputing the transfer because of a too high sign on fee?
RIP to his father. The poor family, his sister looked around my age, really don't know how I would cope if my brother and dad passed away like that. Terrible
Wtf ?
@PeteManic, there's nothing suspicious at all. Dad was 58 and obviously under massive stress because of what happened, plus he had a history of heart problems.
As for the plane crash, it was a miracle that either of the bodies was found. The pilot hadn't been flying much and evidently shouldn't have been flying at all in the dark. Nothing strange, just all very sad. I hope the pilot's remains are found eventually, so that his family can also have some closure.

feck, what a sad story.
You might be right on both counts bud. I wasn’t aware that signing on fees were standard practice. I always thought signing on fees was primarily for players out of contract.I thought sign on fees had become standard practice?

But I mean at the end of the day, there’s some regulation but football would be like any other business. It depends on negotiating power and the actual contract I guess. Unless as you stated, it has become the “norm”.
I'm not sure, it was a genuine question. I keep hearing about them, but maybe it's selective memory because I'll only hear about them when they are paid... and just wouldn't notice if they're not paid in loads of other transfers. The second one was from what I remembered last time I read about it, but that was a couple of months ago and I wasn't sure. After a quick search on google I found this:
https://www.walesonline.co.uk/sport.../cardiff-city-emiliano-sala-contract-15941596
Seems like there definitely was a signing on fee negotiated then. It would actually be good to know if this is a common practice.
I’m in corporate and have negotiated a signing on fee before, when I moved to a new employer.
Hope he is with his son now. RIP
Yes Penna, that is probably the case. Very sad all round.
Rest in Peace.
I feel bad for his sister so much
So so sad.
I only just saw today that his dad had died. What a horrible thing to happen to this family....
64 year old man from North Yorkshire has been arrested...

Has to be his agent?
he's the wrong age
not McKay, wrong age.
I suspect either the owner of the plane knew it was a death trap, but happily took a few quid to let them use it.
or;
a mechanic/safety officer declared the plane fit for purpose knowing it had major defects which ended up being catastrophic. And rather than fix the issue, or notify the owner, they just couldn't be arsed and issued a certificate (maybe with a few quid in their back pocket) Whatever it was, if the 64 yr old is guilty, he knew exactly what was going to happen that night

The original pilot perhaps? Wasn't he around that age? The one who hired that Ibbotso to take his place.
David Henderson - also the wrong age - he was reported as being aged 60 at the time of the crash. https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/83236...flight-after-asking-want-a-weekend-in-nantes/
Some engine fault and the pilot lost consciousness?
Sounds like it. So the finger of blame goes back to whoever serviced the plane/did the pre checks.
Exhaust into the plane it is common and happens frequently.
This is normally on smaller planes prevented with simple detectors, but it isn´t law to do so.
The sad part is that you can buy simple detectors for 20 bucks most small planes have these as they are cheap and easy to install.
This now makes a lot of sense.

does this mean they fainted before impact? that is actually more peaceful scenario in this tragic episode
Yes it does, they probably didnt have the faintest idea. That is probably a better scenario.
