Not making it a club thing at all, i was talking about this company not a specific individual(s) was just asking what affiliation they have with Man United as it should be withdrawn and they should have ties cut immediately
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Trust me, these guys have no professional affiliation with the club whatsoever.

They’ve made something of a name from being outspoken and controversial in the past, but this is way over the line, quite surprising, and very obviously unacceptable by any right minded person.

Hope they delete and apologize, because that Tweet is a disgrace.

Wtf this is shocking

What a horrible day for football

So sad , thoughts with all connected at LCFC

Awful news.

I would think nothing will be announced until all families of those involved have been taken care of. Terrible tragedy.

Difficult to know what to say or think at the moment, but just thought I needed to say something.

The Srivaddhanaprabha family came into our club a few years ago now and, like with any new owner, there was a certain amount of nervousness, apprehension and excitement that comes with any takeover. We needn’t have worried. There was no talk of name changes, colour changes or interference with any of the history or tradition of the club. Just complete respect and a determination to build upon what was already here.

The family have always conducted themselves with a huge amount of dignity, grace and humility whilst they’ve been here; going out of their way to please supporters and invest in the local community. It’s difficult to think that there can be better owners anywhere in the game.

Whatever the outcome of tonight’s frightening events they are much loved by everyone at LCFC. Our thoughts and prayers are with them tonight.

I haven’t seen anything to that regard myself. I’m sure there will be a message in the morning. They’ll likely know and be contacting families before any official statements.

And yes, that from Joby sums it up. Vichai hasn’t just invested in the club, he’s donated to any number of things across the whole city.

A horrible thing to happen - fingers crossed that there were survivors.

BBC News just mentioned again that the LCFC manager *may* have been on board. The other reporter was quick to say that there was no confirmation of any of the passengers though, so it sounds like rumour so far.

Absolutely horrible situation.

It looks bad but hopefully the casualties will be the very minimum.

Shame on those who also see fit to mock this tragedy as well. Bad enough from any fan but from United 'fans'. Beyond belief!

i think the presenter on bbc might have meant general manager?

Absolutely true!

As for this tragedy, it’s just awful. Devastating for all involved.

The sheer fact it's taken this long to give an update suggests the worst imo. Suggests they're looking for an appropriate send off for a hero
