I don't know how Fernandes can even think about football, one of his companies planes recently crashed and killed people sorry but football would be the last thing mind if I were him.

Wasnt it 2 that have crashed out east and werent they both owned by the same airline or have I got it wrong.

I heard some talk on the radio this morning that suggested this has come about because Warburton refused to sign players that he'd never seen play.

It seems the Brentford owner has adopted a 'moneyball' approach (which, to be fair, seems to be working quite well so far) and this system had thrown up some players that he believed would enhance Brentford's promotion prospects, but Warburton refused.

It's tragic but the rest of life goes on. Should he just stop running his businesses and put everyone out of work?

A lot of people rely on his companies for their livelihoods
