You heard anything yourself Ric? I'm not disputing that FB post but I'm still erring on the side of caution as I always expected the hearing to at least take place even if we're completely innocent of any wrongdoing. There was a snippet from @Manchester33 a few weeks back where he'd heard something very positive from his source within the club so hopefully this is a further extension of that.

No, not heard anything mate. I was fortunate to meet a very senior CFG board member recently, but it didn't feel appropriate to be quizzing him about the case. With hindsight I wish I had though.

Agree with what others have said about how the mood music seems to have changed in our favour recently, and still expect us to ultimately be cleared, but think there's a while to go yet before we reach that stage.

Hmmm. So what DID you quiz him over?

Defamation is absolutely fine as long as it is provably true. In fact it used to be a pillar of journalism in this country.
