― gareth (gareth), Tuesday, 4 March 2003 11:56 (twenty-three years ago)

i mean the one that is supposedly anonymous or something. have they said yet?

― gareth (gareth), Tuesday, 4 March 2003 11:56 (twenty-three years ago)

haha, last time it was garry flitcroft. talk about boring! what was the point in him even bothering with a court injunction?

― gareth (gareth), Tuesday, 4 March 2003 11:57 (twenty-three years ago)

what story?

― jel -- (jel), Tuesday, 4 March 2003 11:59 (twenty-three years ago)

the name has been published in the irish papers - the injuction doesn't cover the emerald isle

― j0e (j0e), Tuesday, 4 March 2003 12:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Michael Owen? I couldn't comment since there's an injunction in place, obviously. Though anyone who read the Eire edition of The Sun yesterday would have seen it, as the injunction does not apply.

RONAN TO THREAD!

It's probably Phil Neville, or someone dull like that. Phil Neville - loverat. Could you imagine?

I am shocked by who the person is, on top of previous revelations. I didn't think he had it in him. Though he did seem to find aspects of the Worthington Cup more cathartic than usual.

― Dave B (daveb), Tuesday, 4 March 2003 12:13 (twenty-three years ago)

what's the legality on this, if an english person reads a link to an irish newspaper they've found on a messageboard "based" in australia?

eek, brainmelt...

Ask Dow Jones!

― N. (nickdastoor), Tuesday, 4 March 2003 12:18 (twenty-three years ago)

It's Wim Jonk.

― Dom Passantino (Dom Passantino), Tuesday, 4 March 2003 12:27 (twenty-three years ago)

Is it Emile Heskey?

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Tuesday, 4 March 2003 12:28 (twenty-three years ago)

well i can't find any mention of it on the web, but isnt it supposed to be in the uk papers on thursday?

previous revelations? i thought this was the first?

― gareth (gareth), Tuesday, 4 March 2003 13:07 (twenty-three years ago)

Owen gambling revelations, probably.

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Tuesday, 4 March 2003 13:38 (twenty-three years ago)

oh yea, i forgot about that, haha!

― gareth (gareth), Tuesday, 4 March 2003 13:38 (twenty-three years ago)

I've not got the paper yet but I'll find one if I can.

― Ronan (Ronan), Tuesday, 4 March 2003 13:41 (twenty-three years ago)

whats this about?
there doesn't seem to be anything scandalous in the sports page of the irish times,not that there would be...

― robin (robin), Tuesday, 4 March 2003 15:01 (twenty-three years ago)

If anyone is interested the footballer in question has been named, according to the ITV news, on the BBC Celebdaq website. (ITV weren't allowed to repeat his name).

― Fuzzy (Fuzzy), Wednesday, 5 March 2003 13:26 (twenty-three years ago)

ah, they're taking the Michael.

― chris (chris), Wednesday, 5 March 2003 13:28 (twenty-three years ago)

It's been removed from the homepage. Questions about his identity on the message boards but nobody's dared answer (yet).

― Madchen (Madchen), Wednesday, 5 March 2003 14:09 (twenty-three years ago)

It's as clear as daylight on Popbitch's board. But you'll learn nowt there that isn't on this thread.

― Dave B (daveb), Wednesday, 5 March 2003 14:11 (twenty-three years ago)

I couldn't get into popbitch last night.

but having found it elsewhere, it's hardly the nasty stuff I imagined.

Madchen, your boyf knows the identity too.

― chris (chris), Wednesday, 5 March 2003 14:13 (twenty-three years ago)

Madchen boyf in scandal shockah!

Probably going to be another boring atory, blown out of all proportion.

― Vicky (Vicky), Thursday, 6 March 2003 10:46 (twenty-three years ago)

INtersting implications in the article though!

― Vicky (Vicky), Thursday, 6 March 2003 10:47 (twenty-three years ago)

I have scoured newspapers for this information as my sister is MAKING MY LIFE A MISERY. I can't find a thing!

― Lara (Lara), Thursday, 6 March 2003 14:25 (twenty-three years ago)

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Thursday, 6 March 2003 14:26 (twenty-three years ago)

Now sue my motherfucking arse.

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Thursday, 6 March 2003 14:27 (twenty-three years ago)

What's he done though? I find no mention of that on the interweb.

― Graham (graham), Thursday, 6 March 2003 14:27 (twenty-three years ago)

Michael Owen is a little gambling adulterer who is not as good as Steffen Freund*

One of these is not true.

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Thursday, 6 March 2003 14:34 (twenty-three years ago)

Michael Owen is a little gambling adulterer who is not as good as Steffen Freund*

*One allegation in this statement is not true.

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Thursday, 6 March 2003 14:34 (twenty-three years ago)

can you be an adulterer if not married?

― chris (chris), Thursday, 6 March 2003 14:37 (twenty-three years ago)

The adultery bit is the bit that's not true.

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Thursday, 6 March 2003 14:43 (twenty-three years ago)

Screwing around. I think that's the correct phrase.

― Madchen (Madchen), Thursday, 6 March 2003 14:44 (twenty-three years ago)

What was the Beckham thing that caused troble on the boards previously? Somebody mentioned it to me but I failed to register.

― Lara (Lara), Thursday, 6 March 2003 15:58 (twenty-three years ago)

Beckham was incorrectly rumoured to be having an affair with his wife's sister

― stevem (blueski), Friday, 7 March 2003 11:34 (twenty-three years ago)

Matt DC you will be taken to court for alleging that Owen is not as good as Freund - this apocryphal heresy can not go unpunished

― stevem (blueski), Friday, 7 March 2003 11:36 (twenty-three years ago)

And what was the ILX related scandal?

I have been clicking refresh, waiting for a reply for eighteen hours.

― Lara (Lara), Friday, 7 March 2003 11:36 (twenty-three years ago)

I thought it was supposed to be with michael owen's sister?

― RJG (RJG), Friday, 7 March 2003 11:39 (twenty-three years ago)

Wasn't that Giggs?

― Lara (Lara), Friday, 7 March 2003 11:41 (twenty-three years ago)

ah maybe it was Owen's sis yeh, i'm not really paying attention to be honest (honest)

― stevem (blueski), Friday, 7 March 2003 12:14 (twenty-three years ago)

― terry lennox. (gareth), Sunday, 25 September 2005 09:14 (twenty years ago)

― James Mitchell (James Mitchell), Sunday, 25 September 2005 11:06 (twenty years ago)

― terry lennox. (gareth), Sunday, 25 September 2005 11:13 (twenty years ago)
