Not particularly.

The “delays” here are mostly to do with crematoria running at full capacity and having to wait for the next available slot.

We have now got used to it taking longer and it can help families organise which day is best for them.

Hotter countries culturally bury quicker as the bodies decompose quicker and fridges are a fairly modern addition.

When I go to maine rd in the sky over here your cremated within 24 hrs with or without death insurance. Hope it’s not in the summer it’s hot enough as it is.:-)

3 days max Catholic tradition I think.

Not really a ‘Catholic’ thing. When my brother died his funeral was 9 days later. My mum was 6 days and my dad was 7 days, all Catholics, died here.

My Uncle in Ireland had his funeral 5 days after he died, in order for relatives overseas to attend, UK & Canada. Whereas my other Uncle and my aunties, were within 3 days, also Ireland.

If it's the one you replied to, it was a shitty post. Yours was deleted because you quoted it, by the way. No point deleting the original post, then leaving yours in situ, where others can see it.


And it wasn't me who deleted either post, by the way!

No that’s fine, I saw mine had been kept and thought I’d deleting it myself.

It was obvious some ‘blue’ would be simmering to point score about this, but the use of words in that post was nothing short of disgusting.

I’m sure Johnny crosson feels more of a blue than most though, so at least there’s that for the sad ****.

A family has lost two sons and husbands.

Devastating for them. No need for their employer to make it about them.

Wolves fans will be sad and want to pay their respects to.

Spot on it’s not about either club really just those poor parents his wife and kids. I’m glad we’ve been able to grieve without the press attention the pain is too raw for that constant intrusion. Our respects are on our website, our social media and at molinuex.

Would be an even greater gesture if they did it and didn’t release to the world that they have done it

To be fair there’s no official club announcement about this as far as I can see. It’s more than likely a standard contractual thing about death in service that a fan site has realised and tried to make it something more than it is. For once I don’t think LFC have done anything wrong and have been as respectful as they can be.

Some of them can’t help themselves. Using death, in this circumstance a really fucking tragic one, to land a dig at another club.

I despair really.

Our own Bernardo Silva visibly upset as was Dias. How hard must it have hit those lads from not just the PL teams he played for but the National team as well. Plus his brother's team. How his parents are coping I can't imagine. I know how bad I felt when my younger brother died last year so how I would be if it were one of my 'children' I don't know.
RIP boys.

It's as tough as it gets. I lost my only daughter to meningitis many years ago now (1987), but it might as well have been yesterday. She was only 7, felt unwell, went into hospital just as a precaution so we thought and she'd gone within 16 hours. Even though they were adults I can't imagine what it must be like to lose two of your own at once. One is , ah shit sorry, I dont know what to say. sorry.

I really can't stand that club. But credit where it's due, that's a fantastic gesture.

Great PR from Liverpool, however I suspect its an Insurance Company paying his remaining contract.
Right thing to do though.

What’s that got to do with honouring a contract of a deceased player, out of pure good will towards his surviving family?

Diogo Jota: Trent Alexander-Arnold tribute as Real Madrid win at Club World Cup - 'He was with me today'

Real Madrid's Trent Alexander-Arnold says his former Liverpool team-mate Diogo Jota "was there with me" after helping the Spanish club reach the semi-finals of the Club World Cup.
www.bbc.co.uk www.bbc.co.uk

I’ve read this a few times and I still don’t quite get what he’s saying. Jota was in Portugal and TAA - who’d left Liverpool is in the US with Madrid but they were together? Smells of an ill thought out PR stunt from TAA that is uncalled for. I guess Beckham will be next…
