What a horrible tragedy. 
As a supporter of Sunderland AFC I followed your title win with disbelief, your team proving that, however unlikely, dreams can sometimes come true. I am now sitting here absolutely devastated for you all and can't stop thinking about whats happened.
Not many clubs are lucky enough to have such a genuine owner who cares for their club and their city the way he did, It's just heartbreaking and so unfair. 
Sending my condolences to everyone at Leicester City on behalf of Sunderland fans everywhere.

Still numb and can't believe what's happened to a family that's made our dreams come true.

 

Got the train back to Bedford last night and my phone was going mad with messages asking if I was ok.

 

Much love to all that have perished ❤️

summary for all those waking up to summarise 46 pages:

 

bbc reporting what we all expected, Vinchai was onboard.

Italian news reporting he is dead.

Thai news also reporting his brother died also.

BBC started a rumour that Puel may be on board.

No official word from the club just yet

I'm going to an event today to speak to around 200 businesses and you know what. I just feel like saying **** it. 

I've been looking forward to it but now I'd rather just stay in bed. 

It’ll help Lee. Work something in too, can you honestly think of a more inspiring businessman than our chairman? If I was those businesses I’d want to hear some of the leicester story as long as it fits into your talk well ?

Looks like the son is on his own!

This is beyond anyone's nightmare, so very sad

He has the whole LCFC Community behind him, he will never be on his own.

He is a Fox!

I've seen the BBC talking about Puel but I don't believe he was on board. I was listening to BBC radio Leicester on the way home from the ground and pretty sure the helicopter coincided with his interviews.

Some people who you never meet have and extraordinary ability to impact your life and heart. When I am old and look back over my years, Vichai will forever be one of those people. My daughters will grow up hearing the stories he made possible and the happiness he shared and through these experiences this great man’s legacy will not only live on but grow and grow. Rest in peace Vichai you will never be far from all Foxes’ fans thoughts.

From a newspaper in Nice:

 

I got it last night (Saturday). All is well for Claude and his wife. "Gregory Campi, the coach of team 3 of AS Monaco, very close to Claude Puel, gave reassuring news from the coach of Leicester and ex-coach of ASM and Gym.Some media reported tonight the possible presence of Claude Puel in the helicopter of the president of Leicester, who crashed on the edge of the stadium after the game between the Foxes and West Ham.At 9:30, we did not yet know the human toll of this tragic accident.

I am going down shortly to lay flowers and to express my condolences to the family who have given us foxes fans the best days of our life. I have been watching Leicester since 1965, so I have witnessed and felt all the emotions that have been thrown at us. We all know we have been so lucky to have had Vichai and his family as our Owners. The best owners any club could have wished for.  I am heartbroken over this. Hoping/praying for a miracle.

Villa fan here. Just want to offer my condolences. There are similar threads on our forums and overwhelming shock and disbelief.

 

Our thoughts are with you as we hope against hope for positive news.

 

Whilst it does not look good at the moment, if the worst does get confirmed, remember the good times and the journey you have been on , and continue that journey in his memory.

Good on you. Stringer reported there are already some things laid down near turnstiles 54/57.

Another Leeds fan here, sending my condolences to all connected with LCFC. Tribal differences are completely pushed aside when something like this happens and the whole footballing world stands with you.

 

In a time when football owners seem to be, on the whole, a less than honest and genuine bunch your owners have stood out to the rest of the footballing world like a shining beacon. Every thing I have seen of Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha paints a picture of a decent and genuine man. We all shared that magnificent season with you, all secretly wishing that we had owners like you guys did but taking heart from the fact that it was still possible even in this day of super clubs and mega money flying around - I have never felt that the owners got enough credit for the work they did to turn you into a club that even had the foundations to enable that kind of success.

 

If it is confirmed, as seems likely, that he's lost his life then it's a genuine tragedy. His legacy will always remain with your club but it is so desperately sad.
