They shouldn't have a right to know either of their names. Yes he did something wrong but if there was a media **** storm every time somebody does something like that then the world would be a much worse place. I would hate it if everyone was judgemental against each other all the time over everything.
Well at least he didn't give Imgoen what he gave Davinia Taylor....He gave her a black eye and a fat lip.
Not under Scots law, apparently, where injunctions aren't applicable. I suspect the Herald will have had legal experts in Sots law helping word their article so they fall on the right side of it.
i`ve got a court order banning me from being associated with anything that Abba have ever done, i`m really glad i took out my supertrooper injunction
If a family man cheats on his wife; then takes out a super injunction to cover it up, then begins to sue twitter due to unconfirmed rumours that it was said family man then I think we have a right to know who's suing the social networking site that many use. Not to mention I bet Man Utd fans would be frustrated if suddenly Giggs stops playing as well, or doesn't get picked as often due to his deeds. Do they have a right to know why a legend of their club is dipping in form? There are ethical lines, and there are privacy lines. Crossing ethical lines would be spying on someone at home grieving after losing a loved one and making an article on it. Crossing privacy lines are reporting affairs between 2 individuals. It is no different to what would go round in a rumour in a small village, and if this person has made his money from being in the public eye (he's a footballer, his money DOES come from being in the public eye and in particular the media) then surely he cannot complain when the people paying for his lifestyle discover and report his indiscretions.
i`ve recently had to take out another court order restraining any malicious stories being circulated about me and a dead seventies fez-wearing comic-magician. i`m chuffed about my Cooper injunction
to quell rumours in the press surrounding me and an accident i may or maynot have had whilst out walking my dog, i`ve decided to take out a pooper-scooper injunction
He has 0 chance of success against Twitter imo. They have no base in England they run out of US and their legal team I am sure is well able for such a case as this is probably the most common problem they've faced, the laws in England are different form the US and so is the legal system as a whole. Twitter I am sure have faced this issue many times already and really have to cite precedence do they not? An injuction in England has no effect in the US so how there can be success, the only thing I will say is if the Twitter servers are in England that host this information then there may be some legal leverage for Rayn's legal team
Rumours abound today that leafygreensuburb was unable to perform lovemaking duties after a bellyful of beer over the weekend. A drooper injunction is in place to prevent the woman from telling her mates, who'll tell his mates.
He didn't actually sue Twitter. Somebody used a Twitter account to post details of all the super injunctions celebs had got in the UK, including Giggs, Fred Goodwin, Clarkson and Khan, etc. His lawyers want Twitter to hand over the IP of that person so they can go after them if they are in the UK. Maybe his recent surge in form is due to his deeds? If so, I don't give a monkeys what he's doing in his private life as long as it's working! This would be true if it was only two people involved. But like I said on the Utd board, one of the nasty side effects of the Terry affair last year was that Terry's wife and kids got followed by the paps as well. I dunno if you read the interview Toni Terry gave to the Sun after that affair came to light, but it was cringeworthy at best and some of the articles about her were just abusive. That must be the ultimate humiliation for a cheated on wife - having the entire country and all the ****rag gossip slags watching and judging you for something your husband has done. And surely spying on a family that is trying to come to terms with a cheating husband / father is almost as bad as spying on a family grieving over losing a loved one? Imo that's the only reason Giggs could have managed to get his injunction. When Terry went to court, his application was thrown out cos the judge believed he was more interested in protecting his sponsorship earnings than his family. Which implies that, rightly or wrongly, the judge who granted Giggs' injunction must have been convinced he was trying to protect his family. And, like I said on the Utd board, whatever you think of Giggs' behaviour, the superinjunction has minimised the impact on his family - there have been no paps round their house, tabloid shots of their kids at the beach, tabloid skanks writing about his wife's reaction etc.
I felt sorry for Bridge's kid having his mother portrayed as the cheapest whore on the kerb simply because of Bridge's immature possessiveness over her, when she was his ex. It wasn't Terry's cheating on his wife that all the fuss was about, it was because it was with a teammate's ex. It was macho, blokey bull****. No problem with the paps snapping their happy family posing at the OT walkabout, though: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...ebrations-Man-United-wins-title.html?ITO=1490 Your attempt to attach some honour to his behaviour might've been more appropriate had he not hung Imogen Thomas out to dry.
True, but can you imagine what would have happened if the injunction wasn't in place? The tabloids would have gone with their usual "His wife' such a worthless doormat for taking him back" crap that they gave Toni Terry. Or if she didn't show up it would be "she's such a heartless bitch for dumping him" bollox. Interesting to see that they both showed up tho - does that mean she's forgiven him, or is the injunction so super that it prevents her from publicly kicking him out? I'm not trying to attach any honour to his behaviour - there's no chance of him coming out of this affair with any of that! Just pointing out that he has at least achieved some form of damage control. And Imogen's hardly the innocent victim here is she? "Boo hoo, the married man I cheated with has taken out an injunction stopping me making ã250,000 from selling my story. I know, I'll tell the papers he was in love with me and promised to leave his wife, just to make her feel even more betrayed than she must already". Both her and Giggs are as bad as each other.
No injunction should be given when soneone does something like that and wishes to cover it up after being so fkn stupid as to get yourself into that position. Going after tweeters is just pathetic and has led to the now published account as mentioned by the MP. Griggs is a fking retard,a great footballer but thick as fk for first cheating on his wife and shaming his family and then by stoking up so much media attention that surely would have passed by now and moved on to something else, that now this is sure to be haning around for a bit and the stories will still come, I reckon United being in the CL final had something to do with the granting of theis frivilous injunction for a love rat.
Nobody cares about Crouch, ever since I saw his hair pull against Trin and Tobago to get the first goal for England in the WC I have hated his guts, and he wore the Liverpool shirt for too long after that. Everyone knows he is a jerk so it fits character, Giggs, the statesman, now a sneaky deceitful dishonest love rat, now there's a story. besides, Griggs is te stupid fkn retard that generated all this hype himself, fkn tool Bryan you TOOL! Well Done! Imagine putting your family through all of htat, stabbing your wife in the back and kids too, all for a shot on a third rate celebrity Z list model
The thing about all the media attention sportsmen get for this sort of thing is... If it was the other way round (his wife cheating) nobody would care about 'morals' or 'how bad cheating is', it would still be Giggs who was the butt of all the jokes... We all know people who've cheated... If their families can move on from it, Then why should why care? I agree the way he's handled things since it's all come out has been very poor.. But as far as the cheating.. Couldn't care less. Cheating, or beating up a DJ, or drink-driving is bad- period It isn't bad because you're a footballer..
I've always thought that Crouch seemed like a down to earth guy. Anyway, I don't see why people get on their high horse so much about footballers. Everyone knows at least one person who has cheated on their partners, now when you are surrounded by the amount of beautiful women that footballers are, can you really be that surprised about it? Yes it is wrong but it would go through most peoples heads.
