    What do you make of this..?

    There is a small bit of controversy in the papers but personally I think it's just a drunk mistake.

    What are your views...?

    Eidur Gudjohnsen has issued legal proceedings against the Daily Star following their article alleging he made a Nazi salute.

    Eidur has also released the following statement. "I have read with horror the article in the Daily Star this morning that accuses me of making a Nazi salute.

     "I have this morning instructed my lawyers to take action against the paper.

    "The picture shows me pointing with my first finger with my other finger over my lip. It is not and was not a Nazi salute. The suggestion that it was is an outrageous slur and I am furious that despite the paper having been clearly informed last night of the truth of the situation they nevertheless went on the publish the allegation.

    "I do not see anything to do with Nazi Germany as a laughing matter and would not and have never made light of that regime.

    "I am astonished that a national newspaper can so casually make such an accusation without the picture itself even backing up the allegation in what is a clear attempt to cause me immense reputational damage both personally and professionally.

    "I will do all that is necessary to put that right."

    I seem to recall a thread recently where I highlighted an article I saw on on Jim Duggans Topspurs relating to Spurs and the Media. I've noticed that the Daily Star have been very quick to take the story off their website.

    Do you really believe anything published in the Daily Star????

    Why would they print this rubbish?

    The fans of the club he's at currently know more about what constitutes a Nazi than any other club. This is a despicable piece of journalism.:mad:
