It is official. Ryan Giggs is the footballer who got the Super Injunction. We all knew it already but couldn't write it on this forum or face getting Saints Web in trouble.

 

However, seeing as BBC News has just headlined that it is indeed Ryan Giggs I think we can be sure that no legal action will follow.

 

Ryan Giggs - you are a fornicating knob head.

I'm getting sick to the f***ing back teeth of hearing about this now. I really couldn't give a toss which overpaid leather-bag shepherd is knobbing which desperate wannabe celebrity. The amoutn of column inches and airtime this story is receiving is completely out of proportion to the actual level of interest it should be receiving - ie, ****-all!

 

The irony, of course, is that if he hadn't taken out the injunction in the first place then it might have only appeared on a few red-tops for a day or two and then blown over with everyone forgetting about it after a week.

Sorry, don't agree that this is a non-story. It goes right to the very heart of the freedom of speech. Personally, I quite like being able to speak freely without the threat that some rich man could have me put in prison. And it is only the very rich who could ever get a super injunction. Those media lawyers charge upwards of £500 per hour.

Kind of agree. The lawyers and what they charge are not the issue though.

 

I find it abhorent that an injunction can be made that attempts to keep private the identity of one party but allows the press to name the other.

 

Worse still is the idea that an order can effectively bind the world at large without them being aware of the terms of the injunction. That is unique to these kinds of orders. Contrast with this example. A bloke beats his wife aNd she gets injunction to keep him away from her he is not bound by it until he is made aware of it.

 

The whole thing is crazy.
