Dispute regarding a defamatory article posted on a football blog.
The firm acts for a local football club as part of its specialist sports law practice and was instructed by the club following the posting of a defamatory article and statements on an internet blog and on Facebook by a group of disaffected supporters.
Mike Wilson was instructed to take legal action to secure the removal of the offending material and advised the club of the remedies available to it which included obtaining an injunction against the individuals and websites concerned. The case concluded with the offending material being quickly removed and with a retraction and apology being provided to the club without the need for formal legal action.
