Super Injunction - the man with no name

The man with no name must have known it was only a matter of time before his identity was exposed as the footballer at the centre of the Imogen ‘super injunction’ affair. Revealed in print, by the Scottish Herald and then, today, in Parliament. It took the special Parliamentary privilege of Lib Dem MP, John Hemming, to reveal the footballer's identity; well, in England at least.

After such a tumultuous week, there is little sympathy for the two central characters in this steamy tale of adultery, deceit and blackmail; if you believe the inferences made by Mr. Justice Eady.

The man with no name has often been portrayed as the finest footballer and role-model in the Premiership. The fiercely private footballer has always been polite, generous with his charitable causes, and admired by man and boy alike for his approach inside and outside the game. However, he has been shown to be ruthless in his bid to cover up his adulterous affair with Imogen Thomas and protect his almost saint-like image.

Although, the veteran footballer is thought to have confessed the details of his betrayal to his wife and family, there are more than likely further aspects of his six-month affair, which will expose the full extent of his infidelity.

The tearful pleas of the former Big brother contestant, serial football groupie and ‘victim’ in this injunction plot, does not evoke much sympathy either. Ms Thomas will undoubtedly regain her composure to sell the sordid details of her affair; how she was duped into love with a married family man, the torment and stress of being the other woman and the guilt she has often felt. Eventually, we can look forward to the many sexual positions the man with no name enjoyed in the company of Ms Thomas as she milks every last drop of salacious tittle tattle from the whole affair.

The fall-out has exposed the abuse of privacy laws to the general public, but above all it has proven how difficult it is in controlling the spread of a good sex scandal among a nation of gossip-mongers.
