    <laugh>. Actually had to look that one up. Never heard of Harry R's down under.
    Sounds a bit like the yanks calling their domestic sport team premiers "world champions". :emoticon-0136-giggl

    Whoops. Mind you read that carefully. That reads "Harry", definitely not an "i" in the middle.:emoticon-0138-think

    Cardiff City tried to take out £20 million in insurance on star player Emiliano Sala the morning after he was killed in a plane crash, a court heard - as the club sues insurers for £10 million damages.

    The football club - owned by Malaysian billionaire Vincent Tan - is suing insurance broker Miller Insurance LLP - claiming it owes more than £10 million in a High Court bid.

    The club claimed the firm failed to say players would not be covered if they were not 'timely informed' of new signings such as their new star striker.

    But lawyers representing the brokers said it was not up to them to 'chase' club bosses over making sure new signings were insured and that City was 'fully aware' Sala was not covered.

    Alistair Schaff KC told the High Court that Cardiff City contacted insurers regarding Sala on January 22, 2019 - the morning after his flight went missing off the coast of Alderney.

    Mr Schaff said the club made contact via email, seeking £20 million coverage for Sala - but the company denies owing the club anything.

    Cardiff City claimed Miller Insurance failed to properly explain the concept of an 'insurable interest' for football player transfers, and the requirement of a 'prompt' notification of the transfer in order to secure coverage.

    However, Miller claimed the broker warned Cardiff City several times that there would be a gap in a player's insurance cover between acquiring an 'insurable interest' in a new player and informing the insurer.

    For me, words like Bizarre and Stupid spring to mind.

    The Cardiff Board has maintained throughout that he was not their player?

    That being the case, then they would not have insured him - they can’t have it both ways.

    This must be sickening for the decent and long term fans .media all over it as sensationalism sells And if true tan and co are the rats we all thought they were, and the fans should hound them out for tarnishing the club in such a dispicable way in the whole sorry Sala saga.

    Allardyce is the new favourite for the Blueturds job, suddenly emerging from nowhere to become the new bookies' favourite for Cardiff City manager.

    Big Sam's odds plummeted from 33-1 to even money after a flurry of bets were placed on him on Friday afternoon.

    Big Sam has allegedly today been in discussions with the Cardiff board.
