Sala case


I wasn't aware that Cardiff City FC are significantly involved in the inquest. It is there to establish facts and cause of the two deaths, not to apportion blame. Even if it was concerned with blame very few people (even Sala's mother who is unhappy about the role City played in the travel arrangements) have pointed a finger at City. Nantes possibly via McKay (which is a stretch) but not City.

The hearing at the Court of Arbitration for Sport will be a very different matter. So will any civil case(s) that might follow the CAS decision when it will be clear what the registration/ownership status was before the flight, and also the insurance position.
