Cardiff v Nantes on 18:14 - Sep 17 with 936 views | Steve_M | Without wishing to prejudice any verdict, it’s hard to see how Cardiff fulfilled their duty of care to an employee by using an under qualified pilot and that this case is purely about avoiding having to pay out a transfer fee. |  |

Cardiff v Nantes on 18:16 - Sep 17 with 910 views | LeoMuff | I am not fully sure but are they saying as Nantes arranged the dodgy plane they bare responsibility for his death and Cardiffs subsequent relegation, which could have been avoided with his goals ? Sounds like a fishing episode, not sure why Nantes were organising his flight if he has signed for Cardiff. [Post edited 17 Sep 18:30]

Isn't that the point of their case though, it wasn't cardiff who used an under qualified pilot it was nantes? |  |

There's a really good..... on 18:23 - Sep 17 with 847 views | Bloots | ....podcast series on BBC Sounds (I think) about it. It concentrates on the pilot/plane situation, which was a shambles from start to finish for many reasons. Well worth a listen. |  |

Cardiff v Nantes on 18:30 - Sep 17 with 803 views | Swansea_Blue | Cardiff have been trying every trick in the book to get some money back. They first started off saying they hadn’t signed him so didn’t need to pay the fee (despite releasing all the promo of him signing, holding up the shirt, introducing him to the fans at a half time). That was thrown out by the court. Hopefully this will be too. |  |

All sounds very tenuous, Cardiff wouldn’t organise the flight so Nantes did but via an agent via another separate entity Henderson, which all feels very distant to Nantes having knowledge. That’s without the whole Sala would have kept us up thing But yes in very bad taste |  |

When you read this a qualified pilot was meant to fly the plane but didn't so I can't see how Cardiff can blame Nantes. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-59251852 [Post edited 17 Sep 18:50]

Nantes paid the agent to organise the flight but I guess were ignorant ofbthe disregard for safety |  |

It's here. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/brand/p0cqr5cz?partner=uk.co.bbc&origin=share-m A truly tragic story from many angles - nobody other than the poor player comes out of it with any respectability. |  |
