PS I find your profile name as interesting as the club you include in that profile and perhaps explains the stance you are taking here - just a thought

Got the Rangers bit right ;)

Spot on though. Call it as it is.

The stuff about free speech is just ludicrous when he's sending off solicitors' letters - Free speech as a concept is all about letting people say whatever they what no matter how offensive/wrong you find it.

There are some lines that can't be crossed. Joe put that Conlon w**ker back in his box and rightly so.

Free speech is still subject to legal standards.
If you were any use you'd be playing.

Yeah but you can't put yourself forward as a crusader/defender of free speech and at the same time  be someone who is using the legal system to quell others rights to say what they want unless you want to be seen as a complete hypocrite.

Do some lads here think that journalists just write about whatever they want, post it in and it goes onto the paper without anyone having a look at it?

What I do know is that CF charity came in for a very unexpected windfall thanks to Tommy and an editor who didn't seem to find much harm in Tommy's response to Joe's article of the week before.

I doubt if both journalists will stay at the Indo.

Is this is like one of those Games of Thrones Scenes where the winner and loser suddenly realise they are the opposite to what they thought they were?

His profile name is that of a Loyalist terror group & the club he names inthat profile does not exist. Less a Gael, more of a troll I fear. Explains a lot

Not quite - there's quite a difference between free speech and broadcasting utter lies which I'm guessing is the reason the independent and conlon made the apology.

Good man Joe.
