Mazziessc Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 (edited) Only 5 now apparently. Defender, GK and Reserve GK among the survivors. Heartbreaking stuff. Edited November 29, 2016 by Mazziessc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ally Bongo Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 Regularly take Chapacoense on a late night coupon and they have done me several good turns Absolutely awful Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Batzek-osemba Posted November 29, 2016 Author Share Posted November 29, 2016 Tbh i never heard of that team before. Outside corinthians, Flamengo and Santos I dont really know that much of brazilian club football but it is heartbreaking. United 58 (i think) comes into my mind.

Ally Bongo Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 The other teams in the league have offered to lend them players free of charge for the foreseeable future and asked that they be protected from relegation for the next 3 years Atletico National have also asked their fans to turn up at the time the game was due to be played dressed in white Very sad indeed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Batzek-osemba Posted November 30, 2016 Author Share Posted November 30, 2016 Love to see how these devastating incidents always (often) bring out nice and good characteristics mankind seems to have buried deep within. Be it donations, prayers, condolences, sympathy, help etc. Great to see, that there seems to be a common sense in mankind which can overlay egoism and grief...at least for some time. Its not all lost Ps.please dont say it aint so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deecie Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 They got offered to refuel in Bogota instead but the pilot/owner decided to continue onwards. I'm classing this one as murder rather than accident. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
