Just saw that, christ that doesn't sound at all good.
Sorry, looks like there's already a thread in Chat:.

Awful news. It doesn't sound like there are any survivors.
Apparently the owners son usually goes to matches with him, but wasn't there today for some reason.
horrific for the club if true.BBC reporting that Puel was on board

I agree, but surely the BBC would have cleared it up by seeing him in the press conferenceIt sounded like speculation to me. Or her getting confused with the Director of football who some are saying was on the helicopter. Wouldn't the manager usually have lots of media work to do after a game as well?
Just read this on the Leicester City Forum:
"If he has died, its a crazy world
A good and generous man that has donated 3 million to Leicester Hospitals Charity in the last 2 years
Its a cruel world"
I don't think they would know what to do and probably need that time to process what has happened and who was on board, which they may not know themselves at this timeThe lack of information at this stage is very, very worrying.
Bearing in mind the crash happened almost 6 hours ago, you’d have thought the club would have rushed to deny reports of the manager and the chairman being on board, if they weren’t.
Instead they’ve said next to nothing.
Horrific scenes, I hope that by some miracle Puel and the chairman are okay, but it’s looking increasingly unlikely. Let’s hope the club issue an update soon.
Either way, multiple people have lost their lives at Leicester tonight, which no one ever wants to see happening at another football club.
At this stage, I would think the authorities are notifying family members and the club. We wont hear another word from Leicester until the morning, where they will probably announce the passing of whomever was on board the helicopter as it would be nothing short of a miracle if someone survived that. But until we hear something, I think we have to hope for the best and unfortunately, expect the worst. Nevertheless, this is a tremendously dark day for football and my thoughts are prayers go out to Leicester City, the owner, his family, the fans, our own Glenn Hoddle and the fan from Brighton's family. Very sad weekend for the Premier League.I don't think they would know what to do and probably need that time to process what has happened and who was on board, which they may not know themselves at this time
