Surely that’s breaking rules also ? This is really shit by Cardiff . A real dick move. the football world will turn on them I’m sure of that. We called this weeks ago that Cardiff would try get out if paying the fee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ingram85 Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 (edited) I think most clubs would be investigating it behind the scenes to find a way out of paying but wouldn’t be so public and heartless about it. I personally think it needs to wait until the air accident investigation is over as if it’s found out that Cardiff couldn’t be bothered to stump up and fly him over on a proper flight then they should cough up the full sum. If they aren’t culpable then I think as both clubs are affected by this tragedy then both should contribute half the fee each to soften the mutual blow. Both teams lost a player at the end of the day. Would be nice if they donated it to the Sala family as a way of turning a nasty business dispute overshadowing a tragedy into some kind of positive and avoid the backlash and negative PR.

His contract wasn't actually signed though as the FA rejected it due to him wanting his full signing on fee up front and they don't allow this. He died before the new contract was completed. Had they not been able to sort this out he could well have been off elsewhere. The welsh FA also hadn't cleared the transfer as Nantes didn't give them the paperwork until 4 days after he had died. It's shit all round really and surely some sort of insurance should cover it rather than either club losing out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bannedfromHandV Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 I reckon it might impact on clubs wanting to do business with Cardiff going forward, I mean sure, what happened is beyond unique and extraordinary but still, the way they’ve conducted themselves has been pretty shameful really. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
