LeazesMag 0 Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 Cba reading everything, but that IS dealt with more seriously than the Terry affair. Heard 'There's more important things they should be focusing on' from quite a few people, but what does that even mean? The papers might have Terry all over the front pages, but that doesn't mean it's getting more police attention than serious crimes, it just means its getting more media coverage. So saying theres more important things they should be throwing the book at is a bit of a nonsense as it isn't the police that have chosen to make the Terry affair a huge case (larger than rapes, killings etc), it's that it happens to be what people are interested in reading. And i don't think you would find many people that would say its more important than those cases. And while those cases are worse, it doesn't mean cases like this should be ignored. I don't think littering is as bad as car theft, but if some knob's fly tipping fridges I'd still like him to be charged AS WELL AS the local car thief. fair enough. It is getting more media coverage, maybe it shouldn't be ? We can't control the media though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew 4856 Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 Not high profile stuff but he's been on William Hill's podcast and (although I can't find it) I'm sure he's done some colour commentary recently. careful now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Course we can; don't buy the papers that run the story on their front pages, don't listen to the radio stations that raised awareness of it beyond it's station, don't watch the tv channels that have pseudo-documentaries about it.

We can't control the media though. we do at large with what we pay to read/view the public are interested in stuff like this, it sells papers, it gets ratings. I heard someone say a while back that they were sick of hearing about the leveson inquiry and hoping that it would "go away" while in the same conversation complaining about the banal celeb focus crap in the news but not realising that the two are connected.

Gemmill 46020 Posted July 13, 2012 Author Share Posted July 13, 2012 He does a podcast for William Hill called 'The Punt' Can't believe Gemmill is giving people stick for their lack of googlability elsewhere That's different. if someone makes a comment, I can query them on it. Different to just turning up and going "can someone tell me what the weather is gonna be like today for my postcode?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Face 29 Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 Who the fuck downloads a William Hill "Punt" podcast in the first place, let alone with informed host Ron Atkinson?

PaddockLad 17643 Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 Neither Ferdinand nor his girlfriend went to the police. In fact Ferdinand was reluctant for the police to investigate it at all. Who made the complaint then? If it was someone watching on tv, Ferdinand had the option of not pressing charges. "I didnt hear anything" would suffice. He could have stopped it becoming a police matter iyam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Face 29 Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 Does it need a complaint or charges pressed? I think he got caught in the act and the CPS pressed for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaddockLad 17643 Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 Does it need a complaint or charges pressed? I think he got caught in the act and the CPS pressed for it. Yeah but before it gets to the CPS the police have to investigate a complaint...well thats what I thought anyway. If it is as you're claiming then its reliant on somebody in the police actually seeing it then deciding to act on what he's seen, not sure if it works like that.

Nah, if I piss in the street it's a public order offence and only needs the CPS to have the evidence they need to issue a fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah but that doesnt go to CPS usually as most of that sort of offence is dealt with on the spot by the police. As you say this is a public order offence too. I'm really not sure, but I thought it was stated that he complained only after his bird had showed him what was said on youtube. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
