The Blackpool FC forum, Back Henry Street, has today been sued by Blackpool Football Club for alleged defamatory comments which were made at the end of last year.
David "Blackpool Sluffy" Ragozzino, a moderator on the forum, was given 21 days to respond to a claim for damages from the club. Six other individuals were also served papers for comments made about the owners of Blackpool FC.
Is this the future, football clubs suing their own fans for comments they don't like? Haven't fans been slagging off their club for decades without fear of legal action?
Do you agree with this action or should fans be able to say what they like? Will this legal action make you think twice about writing shite on here?
