Brazilian Team Plane Crash

[Tommy]

Not seen anything posted on this.

Pretty horrendous news that a heck of a lot appear to have died.

[The Boofon]

Should be in the pointless news section this.

 

What difference does it make that it's got fitba players in it?

 

Planes crash every other day.

[Dynamo]

They were on their way to the final of the Copa Sudamericana. Tragic.

 

Suspect they won't be favourites any more.

A minute's applause at the final I reckon should suffice.

[The Boofon]

Their own fault for making the landing strip so narrow if you ask me.

On average 16 plane crashes a year that result in fatalities.

[Dynamo]

5 confirmed survivors. 76 dead.

[dave_min]

Gutted, the 146 is my favourite plane.

[Poodler]

If the dons plane crashed, who would you like the 5 survivors to be?

[dave_min]

The crew (x5).

[tup]

Should be plain sailing for their opponents in the final now.

[Pudgie]

Horrid situation. Has to just be null and void. Right bastard for the other team to make a cup final and nae even get to play it. Canna see anyone stepping up to take the place of a dead football team though.

 

 

I'm not making the Sevco joke but someone else can if they want

[Dynamo]

Quite remarkable that this team were in the 4th division of Brazilian football in 2009 and have worked their way up to the final of the equivalent of the Europa League.

Where did you get that figure...Wiki?...I doubt this includes either Russia or China

[Bluto10]

You know nada, Don Cheese

[RUL]

Pretty fucked that some folk survived, no doubt we will get a film in a few years and lots of folk thanking Willie miller for them still being alive.

Probably the two boys who played on the wing.

[The Cockney Don]

Heard about the crash but didn't know which team it was.

Guessed which one and i was right.

 

Anyway my brazilian team is the same as @@Grays Babylon 1875's. Palmeiras.

Been following them for 3 or 4 years, don't ask me who plays for them though, i just look out for their scores.

[RUL]

I've never even heard of them

[Original A1]

I was just looking at the Daily Mail and they said that Cleber Santana was one of those who died. He played for Atletico Madrid, so I looked up when.

 

9 years ago this very day we played Atletico and he was in that team.

 

Sobering.

 

Rest in Peace.

Fixed it for you

IATA official figures.

Atletico Nacional have asked to award the final to Chapecoense

[paddy]

Has Langfield shaved his head in remembrance yet?

[dave_min]

Celtic have offered to represent Chapecoense in the final.

I'd plus one this if I knew how on mobile

[strachanmcgheegoal]

Celtic were just going along for the minutes silence. They're gutted that they've been pipped to the playing role by another team with more experience of climbing 4 divisions and coming back from the dead. Not sure who though.

 

Meanwhile ManU have just tweeted "Fuck off and get your own back-story"

 

But yes, very sad and all that.

The Huns have also put a Twitter message up, but I'm not sure which side got there first

Save the Brazilian FA a few quid in winner's medals at least.

[Dynamo]

Save the Brazilian FA a few quid in winner's medals at least.

 

It won't save them any money.

 

a) They've probably already been made and b) The Brazilian FA didn't organise the tournament.

 

Happy to help.
