EGBFitness Posted 31 May 2016 Share Posted 31 May 2016 Doesn't even look like him imo I thought this too. Was looking in the club shop yesterday and couldn't really see similarities. Don't understand why he jumped on the bandwagon now? There's been a whole season of Vardy hype. He has had his 5 secs of fame and should leave it there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kendal Fox Posted 31 May 2016 Share Posted 31 May 2016 Agreed he doesn't look like him. Just the hairstyle, which anybody could do, assuming they have similar colour hair. But brow, eye shape, profile,etc is totally different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitchandro Posted 31 May 2016 Share Posted 31 May 2016 People saying he doesn't look like him - are you taking the piss? I thought that was him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kendal Fox Posted 31 May 2016 Share Posted 31 May 2016 Look at Val Kilmer in the film The Doors and then look at the real Jim Morrison. Looks nothing like him other than the hair. As for that pic, he's obviously been practicing in the mirror, looking mean and tilting his head down! I mean, who pulls those facial expressions naturally?!

Bayfox Posted 31 May 2016 Share Posted 31 May 2016 To be fair. It has got a bit boring. Gmb talksport he seemed to be everywhere. They even had a Beckham look a like offering his opinion on it on talksport today. Yet had they done some research by that point vardys missus had explained why earlier in the day. I guess we all love the 80k a week idea But occasionally there are some down sides. Needed or not it seems vardy is now paying for security outside his home. Not ideal. He shouldn't need that. I'm bored of him maybe they are too especially if he's tagging himself in everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

m4DD0gg Posted 1 June 2016 Share Posted 1 June 2016 according to reports this morning he could be looking at legal action from Vardy's management team if any endorsements or image rights are infringed upon. Bet that's Dr. Frank N. Furters doing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bet that's Dr. Frank N. Furters doing. It's getting very strange this now , it's obviously about money and not being annoying Obviously the Vardy's are not dismissive of his look a like credentials I heard it suggested the guy was booked to do an appearance at a car dealership, not one that has an agreement with Vardy , and that's when Vardy's management team reacted. I had no idea a look a like can earn so much cash ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarshallForEngland Posted 1 June 2016 Share Posted 1 June 2016 He did no such thing, that's you reading what you want into what he said. Those words could be taken any number of ways. lol Do you even know what you are saying? Libel can be done by implication. If your approach could actually be used as a defence, the very concept of libel would barely exist at all, and people would just say what they liked about anyone and then claim their remark was a completely innocuous one. Most people know what it means to "not be trusted around kids" and would think worse of a person about whom this comment was written. It's a euphemistic phrase generally used to imply someone is a paedophile and I don't know why you'd think the courts are so credulous that they'd think otherwise.

It's a euphemistic phrase generally used to imply someone is a paedophile and I don't know why you'd think the courts are so credulous that they'd think otherwise. He didn't say he was "not be trusted around kids". He said "Wouldn't trust him babysitting your kids would you". The second sentence could easily be argued that it was meant to infer he wasn't capable of babysitting for whatever reason they decide. Still defamation, but nowhere near as bad. Most libel cases are about someone actually saying someone did something, or heavy implication, subtle implication is a hard one to prove. So I don't get your point about it not existing with that defence. There are numerous examples of libel cases being thrown out of court because of the judges stating the words printed "did not bear the defamatory meaning that the defamation solicitors were advocating". Anyway, this is boring... the Vardy lookalike is boring as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tuna Posted 1 June 2016 Share Posted 1 June 2016 A lot of talk about'tagging' and 'pictures' on here. I suppose this must be a facetube or youbook. Anyone care to explain it for the social media luddites on here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think what Dan said was libellous but you can be done these days if a Judge ruled you impled anything in his opinion, not my idea of justice but that's where we are these days.

I don't think q postie lookalike that looked like he was gonna blow his load when he was invited on the team bus and spends most of his time time in full kit is really gonna be worried about libel for a comment that insinuates many different things Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miquel The Work Geordie Posted 1 June 2016 Share Posted 1 June 2016 He does seem a bit full on / obsessive / unnerving with it but if people are clamouring for photos and arranging PAs with a lookalike in the first instance it's not really him to blame is it?

Agreed, but you can understand him being blocked if he is tagging photos on there social media, and being warned by the management team. If his talking about doing international events he could be mistaken for the real person by people that are not so familiar with the original. Vardy is on the crest of a wave, why would you want a lookalike going on celeb bb, that could say anything or provoke more of a back story in the media eye. Should've kept it low key to earn a little extra, not go on telly talking about this deal that deal and going full time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
