I think it's wrong for anyone to apportion blame at this stage. The Agent probably did what he always does in situations like this regarding transfers/ meetings etc. Whether we like or dislike how Agents operate is irrelevant and until such times as a full and official report is forthcoming we should reserve judgment.

Cardiff questioning if he was actually a Cardiff player suggests some shady dealings or at least bending the rules. perhaps the Cardiff fans with the once a bluebird always a bluebird mantra might have to re-evaluate that statement.

The fact that Cardiff FC had a photo taken of him holding a Cardiff shirt suggests they knew he was their player. Even Neil Warnock suggested as much. His name was even listed in the squad on the back of the Arsenal programme.

A bit pathetic of Cardiff to publicise all then and then turn round and say he's not their player!

Just a thought, he may have signed but did they get round to adding him to the insurance! Doh

I am certainly not an expert on aeroplane recovery but the two occupants, Sala and Ibbotsen, were surely seatbelted in in the space of a small car. The pictures on TV of the plane show it damaged but basically in one piece surely both bodies not one would still be there in the cockpit.
I'm finding this odd too and the fact it was announced that he had £25k in CCJ's does make you think some odd scenarios

It took long enough to find Donald Campbell in Lake Coniston, and that was a smaller, shallower body of water with no tides. What are the odds of finding Mr Ibbotson?
