Good evening Annis, I just wanted to send an email from mys

Good evening Annis,

I just wanted to send an email from myself, a Luton Town supporter.

I would like to express my personal and heartfelt sympathy for what you guys and your club have been through in recent days. The dissapearance of Mr Sala and Mr Ibbotson is very, very sad and has really made many people, including myself rethink life. There have been players lost before, both through accidents and age but this has hit the football world so much more. Mr Sala had just realised a dream which is clearly evident in the photos of the day of the signing, and to have it taken away is heart breaking.

I would like to offer my deepest sympathies to Cardiff City FC, Nantes FC, All staff at both clubs aswell as their fans. I have been reading the CCFC forum since the news broke, and the banner that has been made for Mr Sala even brought a tear to me eye. Football is at times a very strange game with silly rivalries but this is has made me aswell as others, realise how fragile life is.

I will continue to pray for both men, and all the people associated with them. I have so much respect for you guys on the CCFC forum nd my thoughts are with you all. Please remember that all true football fans stand shoulder to shoulder with you in these sad times and are always here for you all. You have all been a shining light for your club, whatever you do - keep that light and make it even brighter.

If you can please post this on your forum it would be much appreciated.

Regards

Lee

A Luton Town FC fan - always in my thoughts and in the thoughts of countless others.

Thanks Lee, that brought a tear to my eye. To be honest what's happened these past dew days has been soul destroying. It really feels like a bereavement in the family, and I'm sure there are many more people who feel the same. After what has happened, for me staying in the premier league is unimportant. Life is far too precious. From now on football for me will only be a game!

I never thought that losing someone I have never met or seen play for us would affect me as much as it has. At the start of the week I watched sky sports news right through the day hoping for some good news, I've had tears streaming down my face every day since. Bournemouth at home is going to be a very emotional game. I hope that the renewed search brings some closure for the families, even though I still hope for a miracle that they could be found alive. God bless them both and their families.

Really? You're telling me that every day since last Tuesday you have had tears streaming down you're face??. If that is true you have underlying issues and need serious help. I Would make an appointment with you're GP at the earliest opportunity mate.

He may be very upset and not literally as described but you didn't need to post that mate.

Really! He has feelings for a fellow human ffs,well I have been supporting city for decades, and can say hand on heart,this has touched me in an unexpected ways,it's the saddest time,in my memory,including relegations I may be,but you seem devoid of empathy, or sympathy, maybe you too are hurting, but can only respond,by attacking a fellow supporter,as a release,perhaps it's you that should book in with a gp

RV take a look at yourself mate ffs. I have found this difficult to comprehend as it's got the feeling of losing someone close but not knowing them, I don't think he meant to it be taken quite that way but anyway why distract from the OP letter which was so well worded and heartfelt.

Thank you Lee.

Listen, I'm not going to apologise because it's how I feel, actually scratch that, I'll apologise for maybe saying it on the wrong thread.

What I will say is that some fans need to be aware of the line between showing respect and crossing the line into disrespect.

Saying thing like it feels like I have lost a family member is disrespectful to those that have lost a family member.

Saying you have been crying everyday if you havnt is not only disingenuous, it's just weired.

Respect needs to be shown with dignity, this is not about us.

Maybe people feel it differently to yourself and grieve in many ways, it's just wrong of you to say that here and at this time

I don't think he's been crying everyday too but so what. He may have cried who knows. My uncle died not long ago but this has hit me 10 times more so what?

If it was a female saying that, would you be so harsh on her saying she needs to book a GP appointment?

In my opinion it's probably not so much that someone may have died that people find upsetting, but more so the way in which they may have died, not of old age, not instantly like a bomb or being shot, Sala didn't speak English, the pilot may not have spoke Spanish, the only 2 people on a plane that ran into trouble - it's a haunting thought... and the only reason he was on a plane that day? because he wanted to come and play football for our club,

It's really sad and will hit people in different ways, calling them out on it just because you're using the internet speaks volumes, if you have nothing nice to say when discussing such a delicate subject then I really wouldn't bother.

What the f**k difference does it make if it was aimed at a man or woman? I don’t get that bit at all?! The amount of snowflakes on here is mind boggling.

I agree with RV, people are going too far and making it all about them instead of actually having respect for the families it’s actually effecting.

Lay flowers, and a nice message at the stadium but leave it at that. The amount of people wallowing in self pity as if they knew Sala for likes on social media is disgusting.

RV - Everyone is entitled to an opinion but sometimes its better left unsaid .. especially in cases like this.

Respect needs to be shown with dignity, this is not about us.

I'm a 61 year old supporter and cried everyday as well. Perhaps you need to see someone as you are unable to show any real emotion.
