nonthaburial Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 Over the last week Twitter and the likes are inundated with the name of the footballer involved in a gagging order. Yesterday a Scottish Newspaper supposedly published a name and a picture (with the eyes blacked out)and did so legally as the gagging order only applies to England and wales. So any one on here have any ideas of who this coward is ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jockstar Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 What does it involve? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nonthaburial Posted May 23, 2011 Author Share Posted May 23, 2011 (edited) What does it involve? A Premier player who has played for a number of big clubs as well as for England, a married/attached man with kids had an affair with a TV Star, even went as far as suggesting they would marry. Then got cold feet and took out a court injunction gagging the publication of his name. Sad thing is the lady he was involved with has been hung out to dry. Its all over the UK media but no names mentioned. Its all over twitter apparently where he has been named but I am not a user of Twitter,he has also filed a law suit against Twitter for allowing his name to be published, but failed as the injunction only applies in the UK minus scotland Edited May 23, 2011 by nonthaburial Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beano2274 Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 (edited) Just Google Ryan Giggs, and on the first page you will see a link to a site about it, but it has already been gagged as well.

I believe giggs is a one club player The concensus on the Yahoo Man U site his morning is that their own Ryan Giggs ...a welshman...who has tired of sheep,is inded the naughty boy at this centre of interest. Many of the posts are condeming him and apparently were shouting at him during sundays match against Blackpool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StevieH Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 it absolutely positively is bryan riggs and it has been common knowledge for weeks. had an affair with big brother contestant imogen thingy and has spent tens of thousands trying to cover it up so as not to spoil his wholesome, golden boy image. attempting to sue the whole of twitter is as laughable as it is pathetic. you did wrong, 'fess up and get it over with you clown.

gennisis Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 No problem. He's been named on various web pages internationally as the gagging order only relates to the U.K. I think this whole episode shows that the 'power of the internet' has now superceeded any countries laws relating to privacy...in some ways a good thing of course. If the suspects are happy with the public adoration and the enormous salaries, then they must accept the scrutiny. If these 'tweets' are indeed correct then the losers are the family of the subject . In this case his wife and children. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barcelona19 Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 You seem not to like him much, I have nothing against him even though I don't particularly support him.

Barcelona19 Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 I doubt it was Giggs who wanted to sue though, more likely its his agent who gave him the idea. Nonetheless, even thinking of suing Twitter for his own faults is shameless. Always thought Giggs was the kind of person who is respected even by non-United fans.
