Are these the same ones that everyone said were fake?

Are they really private though if you’re openly texting at a football match in public. Not really the best idea? Always bound to have someone looking over your shoulder.

Oooop, I’ll put my hand up and say I thought they looked fake. Egg on my face it seems.
Does anyone know the actual legal ramifications? I get he was in public but would it be an actual case for breach of privacy?

This is a classic case of the Streisand effect – if they’d said nothing no one would have believed it was true. This has just confirmed what most doubted was real!

Legal action against who?

Hilarious! I just assumed they were fake. Seems like it would have been better to say nothing. Plus, there’s nothing really in the messages is there? They just implicitly implied that they thought Watford were shit, as do most people.

Love all the Reddit detectives on here last night who kept saying this was fake. Who on earth would bother to fake something like that?

Coventry are finally starting a proper rivalry with someone.

No way. That wasn’t fake? Totally thought that was shooped. Madness.
The Gaffer uses emojis. Not quite sure how I feel about that one.

I’m just really disappointed to learn that Mark Robins uses emojis. Shatters the illusion slightly.

Oh dear so they weren’t fake then? 🤣

Amazing, I’m so glad they’re legit.

We aren’t very good so I’m not sure it’ll matter, but this has the potential to motivate the players more than Ismael ever possibly can.
