They should. Contract was signed. Cardiff are insured, they surely must be. Nothing wrong on Nantes' side in terms of actions.

Yeah abit of tack and humility needed ffs the body hasn't even been identified

Payment due is payment due. Who knows what legal wormholes could be opened up if Nantes gives an artificial grace period. Not a good look on Cardiff if they start to drag feet.

Yeah i get that but ffs sensitive time for both clubs, just think the timing and the "demanding" bit off. Mmm not good press for Nantes due payment or not , money money money even when there's a tragedy and the guy's body hasn't been identified yet, you don't demand money from your insurance company for a accident that happened on holiday while in duty free lol. Sky Sports News understands the club feels it necessary for the salvage operation in the Channel to be concluded and for both the Air Accidents Investigation Branch (AAIB) and the police to conclude their investigations before any payments are made.Cardiff are happy to honour the contract agreed with Nantes but believe there are a series of questions that still need answering, most notably about the ownership of the Piper Malibu aircraft which crashed North of Guernsey on January 21.

Football is so interesting... Watched a little of the Everton vs City match and Davies ended most of the attacks with poor first touches (showing too much or losing control). Walcott was right below in the ability to end attacks. If you read fan's opinion on twitter, Davies had a monster game showing "lots of grit." Dedication and aggression are secondary attributes. Important? sure! However ONLY if the player in question has good technique, esp at this level.

Davies is young, so he may improve and become a good player, but that first touch isn't reassuring.
