Diogo Jota & his brother Andre have died in a car crash

[supercity88]

Absolutely shocking news, my thoughts are with his wife and young children. Heartbreaking. I know we don't like Liverpool but, again, my thoughts are with their players and fans who must be absolutely devastated by this. He was a brilliant footballer, unlucky with injuries and gone far too young.

Awful news. Thoughts are with his family and friends.

Shocking news. My thoughts are with his family.
I detest the red scouse but this transcends football.

When events like this happen this song always springs to mind... tearjerker

 

[Johnny Mars Bar]

Wow.

Regardless of rivalries this is awful news, RIP.

 

[Kinkys Left Foot]

Simply awful upsetting news - such a waste.
Horrendous for his family and friends of which there are numerous at our club.
RIP.

Not sure if already stated but it seems his brother is not the same André Silva who played for RB Leipzig. His brother was also Andé Silva but played in lower leagues.

 

[Johnny Mars Bar]

this news really does put football rivalries into perspective.
At the end of the day it’s just people.
Such sad news
An unsung hero really who was underrated and had a knack of scoring at the right time.

Well said.

It's probably for the best that we don't know what's around the corner for any of us. What a tragedy for the whole family, very sad.
