The word intention is used twice, and in the first instance with a But.

I don't agree that this soundclip is conclusive proof personally, why use the words, but it is a possibility, it is a possibility.

The CVFDR will obviously be crucial here.
What? ATC asks them what their intentions are and they say "we're landing at Blacksod for fuel". That means they're going to land at Blacksod for fuel. The word "Definite" is not required in ATC.

You're getting caught up in semantics. I don't see any confusion in their intentions, and obviously neither did the controller.
