Am I the only one who finds it quite laughable that such a comment actually lead to a court case?
"Lawwell needs a bullet simples!!!"
I'm not advocating threats of violence against anyone and it's far from friendly, but for Lawwell and his band of lawyers to take such a comment to court is laughable. We read throw-away comments online all the time and for Lawwell to come under fire (no correlative pun intended) after some of his recent comments regarding the discussions and actions of the "rebel 10" is hardly a surprise.
His [Lawwell's] club manager couldn't be fined by the SPL for something he wrote on Twitter (bearing in mind that it's an officially verified page, so it's clearly Lennon's), so how in the name of goodness can courts take action against such comments, when it's so hard to prove authorship?
