So the footballer who is quite a sporting personality has been named in the foreign press. What happens now if he is named? Legal minds?

the injunction still applies in the uk.

As a publisher stw can be sued if they allow the name to appear here in relation to that story.

Do you think that a legal precedent would be set if someone published the name and cited that it was common knowledge and new ways of communicating meant it was impossible to stay secret.

if you've got deep pockets then you could create your own website put it on there and see what happens?

I have been told who it is by a member of a papers employees family. But to say, would cause issues.

It is a nice way for the rich to protect themselves, and yes they should have that right unless there actions are hypocritical.

the injunction isnt a matter of secrecy or otherwise, its an injunction not to publish. So, in theory EVERYONE could know about it, but you still wouldnt able to publish the fact.

EDIT
: and to be clear a superinjunction is one that prohibits you from naming who has acquired an injunction not to have facts published. With a normal injunction you could say that a named individual doesnt want facts (unstated) published.

It's all over Twitter anyway - not rocket science to figure out what hashtag to use if you're looking for stuff about a superinjuction is it?

Shame, was hoping to catch a gig in the North West. Is that still possible?

Hmmm, possibly playing gigs in the North West for another year or two but will be used more and more regularly just as a support act. I am sure his Scottish manager will know more about that than I could ever do though.

So it's not * or **** then? Or are their (alleged) injunctions still in place? (posted form Geneva, outside UK jurisdiction)

Edit 😕

I really don't get it - surely they must be pursuing extra publicity rather than truly trying to hide stuff but why do they want to make themselves look petty and ridiculous at the same time ?

so, can we state the "facts" of the story as long as no names are mentioned ?
I'm guessing footballer shags ... in approx order of likelihood: prostitute/stunna/other footballer's partner/other footballer/famous person/famous person's partner/animal

Ed. As muppetwrangler says, it's way more fun not knowing the names - after all the "personalities" are pretty much interchangeable anyway

Close scaredy pants 'reality TV stunna' - in fact the programme has to be named otherwise nobody would know where the hell she came from. Unless you know her older male sibling of course.

Had to laugh.

Just read Telegraph on-line, about 'high class escort' Helen Woods who slept with the actor who has also taken out a super injunction, therfore he cannot be named.

On the same page was ads by google, & one of the ads was for Triumph Motorbikes.........

Wonder what Jedi would have to say on this subject?

maybe the only way to find out is to name all possible individuals in all possible combinations and then see who sues the ass off you

How could they sue without outing themselves anyway - or is it contempt of court ruling and pursued by the court itself ? (what possible penalties exist? fines, jail, being spitroasted by the england squad)

But then Hugh’s [bonneville] devotion to wife Lulu is so strong it is understood he is known to fellow thespians as the Ryan Giggs of the showbusiness world, after the famously family-orientated footballer.

theyre just having a laugh now, arent they?
