Posted by Football bosses are under pressure to ban helicopters from stadiums after the tragic crash at Leicester City on Saturday.
Leicester FC's billionaire owner Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha died along with two pilots and two passengers after his helicopter crashed outside the King Power stadium on Saturday night.
It brought back haunting memories for many devastated football fans, with the crash coming almost 22 years to the day that a similar incident claimed the life of Chelsea vice chairman Matthew Harding.
Others called for a ban on helicopters at football stadiums over claims the pilot avoided an even bigger tragedy by diverting it into the car park and away from fans and staff.
One senior football official told the Daily Telegraph he would support stricter rules on the aircrafts after fans on Twitter said they would also back a ban.
Early reports suggested fans still at the King Power stadium after the LCFC West Ham game yesterday were forced to 'run for their lives' when the helicopter came crashing down from 200ft in the air.

Business tycoon Lord Alan Sugar also waded into the debate, tweeting earlier today:
Thai duty free billionaire Mr Srivaddhanaprabha, 60, would often use the centre circle at Leicester's ground to land after games.
He landed there following his team's 1-1 result against West Ham on Saturday night, taking off shortly after to fly to Luton Airport, where sources say he was going to catch a plane to his native Thailand.
