I cannot believe how emotional this is, I don't know what is wrong with me. Just tuned into Stringer on 5Live, did a good job. Tanner is on now.

 

Whenever we next play I just cannot comprehend how difficult it'll be.

 

Hoping the league/cup guys give them time off, this is one of the most traumatic events in the history of the club/league. I just pray for them all

Rangers and Liverpool fan from Glasgow here.

 

If I could give each and every one of you a hug, I would. I was devestated to hear the news about the crash. Any club in the world would be honoured to have someone like Vichai at the head of their club. He's helped create some special memories for you lot including winning the Premier League as well as the work he's put into the surrounding community.

 

I wish you lot all the strength in the world and will be thinking of you lot over the coming days.

 

All the best.

Sorry to read about the tragic events that took place at your club yesterday.

While nothing I say can change the situation, speaking as an Everton fan, we're all deeply troubled by the news, and our thoughts are with you and everybody involved.

God bless to all.

Hi Foxes fans, Baggies fan here. I've read most of this thread and as someone else put, I couldn't not say something. It really puts things into perspective.

We are thinking of you tonight and we'll support you. I really hope you get positive news.

No words 

stunned and so sad, this is where the football community comes together x

.... just heard the dreadful news .... my thoughts and prayers go out to all those in the aircraft and on the ground affected by this awful occurrence.  

[bovril]

Gazzetta now reporting that Vichai and Top died on board, although UK media seemed to have confirmed that Top wasn't at the game. 

 

Edited to say Gazzetta is quite trashy obviously.

If the rumours are true, and Vichai, his wife, and his daughter have died supporting Leicester City, how can we show how much their support has meant to us?

Need to sleep but doubt I'll be able to. Dreading the news in the morning.

 

Thanks to all opposition fans for their support. 

That’s exactly how I am. 

[richardsfoxes]

Literally numb. 

[urban.spaceman]

No chance I’m getting any sleep tonight.

 

truly gutted.

Sometimes Stringer mentions the helicopter just leaving prior to a post-match manager interview. Really hoping that was the case.

Utterly numb. I have been glued to this thread every minute since it happened. I don’t know what I’m hoping for. 

 

I  can only say thank you the fans of other teams who have made comments. As stupid as it sounds that’s the only thing that’s just holding me together. 

Tim, it doesn't sound stupid in the slightest, mate. Some things transcend tribalism. All decent football fans of all colours are with you... you hold on. 

[AndyP]

Aldershot fan here.  Can't imagine what you are all going through at the moment.  Thinking and praying for you all.

**** **** ****

 

watching the news in diminishing hope of any good news, and wondering what to say to the lad in the morning.

 

thank you to every fan or player from clubs around the country who have made the effort to express their condolences here and on social media, especially to mark noble given the circumstances - i’d be perfectly happy if the FA were to rescind his suspension.

It’s wasn’t tonight. I listened to his interview when I got home and then it happened probably half an hour later.

[shailen]

Absolutely tragic whoever was on board the plane. Hoping that somehow they are okay. Regardless of the situation, I just wanted to say these owners have been fantastic and have transformed our club to a global brand

[Blue 70]

Just awful - brought back memories of Mathew Harding - I remember when Hazard scored I was delighted for Ranieri and Leicester - fantasy football brought to life during a sensational football season. Foreign media are reporting that your Chairman and his daughter have been killed. Whether its true or 'fake news' I am so so sorry.

I think that's probably a bridge we'd need to cross if and when it comes to it, but if it does end up being the case, I can think of something that would hopefully be in line with the ideals Vinchai and his family held themselves to. One for the morning, perhaps (although if there's any luck at all it won't be needed).

[Heymister2015]

The interview happened a fair time before the helicopter took off at 8:30! So many rumours but this is ridiculous tbh! Can’t believe it and keep hearing conflicting reports 

[Woof]

What a shocking end to the day to get home after the game and see this news.  The only comfort is seeing the incredible support on here from football fans from so many other clubs.

[Sheffield United Fan]

Sheffield United supporter here. What shocking news this is - I am so sorry to hear of what has happened this evening.

 

I am sure I speak on behalf of all of the supporters of our Football club when I say this, but I really do hope and pray everyone is OK. This puts everything else into perspective. The rest of the Football world unites as it always does in times of terrible tragedy.

 

To LCFC and the city of Leicester - both sides of Sheffield (United and Wednesday) are with you, and the rest of the Football world is with you all. 

[copunk]

All of this seems so surreal, I don't ever think this will sink in for any of us, as many have said we all regard those involved at the club, whatever capacity, as family, OUR FAMILY, I haven't said a word for the last 3 hours ?
