thats it, if you go into "view message source" in the emails, the IP adress is along the top

here is the letter if anyone wants a laugh

Hi paul, I dont have the welshfella owner's email address to wil ask that you forward this on.



Ive been instructed to say at the start of the email: WITHOUT PREJUDICE

Please don't make me send this officially. This letter is drafted to show you how much trouble you and the forum are currently in. I will stress that I don't wish to make legal proceedings but absolutely will if these comments aren't removed. I am angry that you have implicated me in this. disclosing my personal details as the result of gaining them from this letter, including sharing this letter, will also result in legal proceedings as a result of the defamatory comments made to forum alias will then be directly made to me which I'm told will result in even greater penalisation.





Your defamatory internet posts and publications


We are Elliot & Harvey Solicitors & Attorneys, a firm of solicitors based in Mount Gravatt QLD that acts for Mr David Reynolds (“Client”) in connection with the identification and pursuit of identified instances of libelous statements across the internet.

We have been made aware of various posts you, on behalf of yourself, members of your forum and your administrators, have made and are making on forums around the internet, including Twitter, which makes reference to our Client.

Our claim

We have evidence to prove that the forum hosted by your website www.bluebirdsforum.com contains serious, untrue and highly defamatory comments towards our Client, some of which contain malicious falsehood. In doing so, defamatory comments are being communicated to thousands of people throughout the world, posing a serious threat to the reputation of our Client.

These comments seem designed to damage the reputation of our Client.

The defamatory threads are as follows:


The allegations which will be the subject of a possible action are in summary as follows:

You have made it clear Our Client hacked various Facebook and forum accounts without the judicial right to do so.

We have included a small sample of the posts within the aforementioned threads to illustrate the defamatory and actionable nature of the content contained (“Schedule A”). Please note that this is not an exhaustive list, but merely a token sample to illustrate the nature of the discussion.

Under the law of England and Wales, a defamatory statement is one which tends to lower the claimant in the estimation of right thinking members of society generally (Sim v Stretch [1936] 2 All ER 1237). The words are defamatory, identify or refer to the claimant and are published byyourselves to third parties.

Legal proceedings

In order to protect our Client’s interests we are considering proceedings against you in the High Court. These proceedings would seek remedies including but not limited to the following:


substantial damages;


an injunction to restrain you from publishing the same or similar statements in the future; and


costs.


Jurisdiction

A defamatory statement is published at the place where it is read, heard or seen, and is not where the material was first placed on the internet. In internet cases, therefore, provided a small number of people have access to the material on the internet in England, the English courts will have jurisdiction to hear the claim against a foreign defendant (Spiliada Maritime Corp v CansulexLtd [1987] A.C. 460).

Next steps

We are not against freedom of speech and recognise the value of fair comment. At this stage neither we nor our Client have any desire to issue legal proceedings against the operators and the Website and we are keen to do all we can to avoid litigation where possible.

However, in accordance with the pre-action protocol for defamation, we will desist from issuing legal proceedings provided within 14 days of the date of this letter you agree to do the following:


remove from publication in their entirety the defamatory threads to prevent harm to our Client and his business;


produce an apology and a declaration that the allegations referred to are defamatory and cause such apology and declaration to be published in each of the forums which have given or could give reason for our complaint (such apology to be approved by us prior to publication);


provide details of recipients of advice or comments made of this nature, together with contact details for each recipient;


make proposals for the payment to us of damages for the harm caused to our reputation; and


undertake to actively monitor and delete any newly published defamatory content relatingto our Client.

If the defamatory threads are not permanently removed and the above undertakings are not complied with by 6.00pm GMT on Tuesday 07/10/2014 we shall revert to our Client with a view to recommending that they commence taking steps towards the swift issue of proceedings without further notice.

We draw to your attention the terms of Section 2 of the Defamation Act 1996, under which you have the right to offer to make amends.

We await your response by return. In the meantime we reserve our Client’s rights, in particular the right to produce this letter to the Court when it comes to consider costs under CPR 44.3.

Yours faithfully


Mr Kerry Doyle


Elliot & Harvey Solicitors & Attorneys



Real Law firm, real Lawyer.... but its Mrs Kerry Doyle :laughing5: :laughing5:

Could'nt make it up Paul. This bloke is obviously seriously deranged, and it would be impossible for anyone to damage his reputation, he's already made an excellent job of doing that himself. The stupid thing is that he honestly believes that he is intelligent, whereas nearly everyone else can see that he is as mad as box of frogs.

Why is he so keen to post if he's a Swansea fan? He's either mentally ill or he's warped

I've never minded Roathie posting on here, I find the people that bite and follow him round making fake accounts to challenge him as far more annoying but he needs to give up the ghost now. If these Emails are really him then it's time for him to turn the computer off and move on.




I have to say I agree with you on most of that and to a large extent some of the other 'biters' on this Forum need to look at their own actions/responses! :thumbup:

However, in recent times it has become very evident that the person behind the 'Roathie' name is simply obsessed with all things Cardiff City FC and in particular its individual Forums :roll:

As 'Mods', we all receive messages off this person (often attempting to play us off against each other) but it is safe to say that such is the bombardment Forever Blue takes from said person, I think we now have a ready-made replacement for David Marshall should he ever leave! :laughing6:

It saddens me, to be honest, as its just become a daily routine...and an obsessive one at that! :cry:

One of the plus points of last year was the disappearance of the few jacks, swapping places was just beautiful and made for a fine summer. You can tell they are getting all excited again, bless.....such simple fools.

Too true goats, hardly a tramp from down west posted on this forum last season, but true to form some have crawled out from under their stones thinking that they are THE team in championship after just one month of the season :lol: As for this thread, I'd forgotten about it, but it's hilarious and goes to show how deranged the freak show was and still is. :lol: :lol:
