 I joined this forum as a football fan to feel the joy you guys were experiencing in 2016. I've come back on to express my sorrow and grief at what happened last night . You will always be in my thoughts. Rangers fan.

Arsenal fan here, so sorry to hear the news about the helicopter crash last night. Whilst it hasn't been confirmed, it does appear as though your chairman has perished in this crash. A complete and utter tragedy this is.

 

You couldn't get more detached from an owner than Silent Stan, who sits on his ranch lording it over Arsenal Football Club. Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha by contrast is a real football man by all accounts, goes to the games and engages with the fans. It always happens to the nice guys.

I really cannot find the words to say, as I feel so shocked and numbed. We have lost a true star. His memory will be a light in our darkness.

 

R.I.P  Mr. Leicester City.

This is exactly why we shouldn't jump to conclusions.

It's also why the media are being a little bit dangerous with their reporting. I'm a journalist, and I am outraged by the BBC and Sky. They have reported names who could be on the helicopter, which helps nobody and might mean that somebody who was on board is not accounted for yet. Awful reporting.

Look, we know a number of people have quite obviously died.

The question is who? There needs to be an official statement from club.

Some may still be fighting for life and it may also be difficult to identify the dead if the burns are severe.

 

they obviously have good reasons for holding off on releasing definitive information.

I am a Villa fan who went to university in Leicester in the early 80’s and visited Filbert Street a few times.

 

Desperately sorry to hear the news and my heart goes out to those killed, their families, and you the Leicester fans.

 

God bless you all at this time and in the tough times ahead.

there will be, in time. I suspect (but don't know) that everything needs to wait for Top. It is his tragedy, and I would guess the powers that be at the Club would want to wait for Top to give the go ahead to whatever they propose to say.

Hi, Irons fan in peace.

I am shocked and saddened by this incident, my heart felt prayers are with your amazing owners family, friends and fans and I am sure, that I am joined by thousands of fellow Hammers, who would have rather lost this game 7-0 rather than what happened.

I hope both clubs can do something in rememberance of Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha and members of his family, to mark what an amazing example he has set to other Owners, who sometimes pay lip service to being responsible owners.

Remember the darkest hour is just before the dawn.

Bless you all.
