And not only that Mr T and the giants will be in more trouble when they have to answer to the RFLfor the lies that was told to them in a previous hearing.

Quote: Ginger_Giant "I see.

The Examiner is claiming £160k plus legal fees, totalling £167k.

Will see what they say in the full story tomorrow.'"



There is £35 k court costs ie the time of the judge etc etc

The costs of the legal teams will probably be borne by the losing party i would guess that both teams had a minimum of a barrister plus a junior and a solicitor in attendance. They would have been paid by the parties at the private rate that would be a minimum of £2k a day for the barristers ( anyone half decent would have been charging £5k a day).

that for two days doubled adds up.

The legal advice and conferences held before the trial would also have been at the same rate. I would be amazed if the legal fees were less than £50 k

The Judge was definitely a Leeds fan fed up of the kickings.
We need an extra 10000 fans to turn up to pay the ridiculous payout.

The club statement from Ken Davy was very good and laid out the standards that the club expects, and I applaud him for his stance.
The Judge in the case was very soft and too liberal, although I liked Mason, he let the club down.

I disagree. Past players have been found guilty in court of criminal acts and not been sacked. A photo of a backside is so trivial it it brought about a whopping 4 complaints (some of which may have been suspect, according to the court report). This just smacks of trying to take the moral high ground to detract from what appears to be bad management.

A question to ponder. Do people not think that the decision to sack and then oppose Mason's claims were taken at board level? ["Mr Mason appealed his sacking but club vice-chairman Dr Paul Morgan dismissed it."]

[It is purely a question and not intended to ask for the abuse and bile of recent times!]

Really not sure how people manage to see some justification for the clubs actions in this. It has been proven in court that KM was treated very badly indeed. The sacking was out of context with punishments for other players misdemeanours, he is entitled to his compensation.

The club was wrong, KM was right, I for one have no issue with him over that and I suggest that in his position many of us would also have pursued a claim.

Embarrassing for the club, though not related it is not going to help perceptions in the Town re the stadium shares and all told another blunder in showing the club in the correct light to attract new fans.

Ken Davy has done great things for the club, things we should all be grateful for, but on this and in respect of his official statement he is wrong. Ask yourselves this question, would we have taken the same action against say Leroy, Eorl or Danny Brough? The court said not and I am inclined to agree, that is why KM won the case.

Perhaps not- but what has leroys, Danny's and eorls behaviour been like throughout their time at our club? It's not the first time that mason has behaved badly. Mason has to take some critisism for his behaviour whilst at our club and the club needs to take critisism for dealing with it incorrectly. Thewlis should go IMO - but he won't.

!/ was having a picture of a team mate mooning gross misconduct ?


2/ if so was it worse than being drunk and assaulting a woman.?


because number 2 gets you sacked at the Giants but number 2 does not .

if no 2 is worse then there must be other reasons why Mason got sacked and i think it was reasonable to assume that it was a sneaky way to get around team roster issues. The judge agrees apparently

According to the Zaminer legal fees could be £200,000.

That could be a total of £367,000 in total!!!!!!

Davy's statement is absolute bobbins. "We stood up for what we believe is right, regardless of the fact that it was illegal". Sorry Ken, but no.
