Understood to be of interest to the Met Police again alledgedly for issuing threats to Cardiff City personnel - presumably because he or his son won’t be getting their usual slice of the transfer cake  for the late Emeliano Sala.
If proven to be true it’s all pretty sick as 2 men have lost their lives.

He's one of the most wretched men in football.

Wasn’t there an altercation with one of our own fans over in the East Stand a few years ago?

He wasn’t very happy when me & my dad made him shift out of our seats in the West Stand

What you presume is strange as he is on record saying him and his son are not bothered about any money that might be owed to them.
And, in the only interview iv'e seen him give about the subject he was the one stressing that two people had lost their lives.
His son Mark was visibly distraught about what had happened.

McKay was the one giving a BBC interview pointing the blame at Cardiff City less than 3 weeks after the deaths, to be fair. Anything for a spotlight on himself, I'm sure.

I think the whole Sala story is very sad and the way Cardiff and Nantes are having a bun fight is dispicable.   
I obviously have no idea if the transfer etc had gone through completely but I would have thought that all top clubs would have their players insured.

   Difficult one this,i normally tend to go on how I find people.I've only met him once and that was in a pub before the Brentford match,he bought everybody a beer and genuinely seemed to have a passion for the Rovers when I chatted to him..I actually quite liked him..
   However people I speak to whose opinions I respect who have done work/business with him don't have a good word to say about him so maybe he is one of those people who have a false front..

Likewise, I met him at a function at the Keepmoat and got speaking to him and his lads...they all seemed quite amiable

I've learned from personal experience that a person can be an utter Kitson in their work due to the nature of the job but the type of bloke you could go for a pint with in reality.

Insurance will not pay out IF the pilot did not have the correct license to carry a fare-paying passenger. IF he was carrying him for free then that's a different story. I think there will be a lot more to come from this tragedy.

It was a cost share or something wasn't it? which makes it not a fare. Could be wrong.
