    That football club recklessly club let their pothole attack a defenceless lady. Shame on them.

    €38k is no where near enough for her trauma and suffering.

    You have to wonder how do people like that keep a straight face when bringing this to court.

    I hope the €38,000 makes up for what her local community now think of her.

    Are I reading this bit right

    David Dodd, counsel for the club, told the court that Ms Duffy’s legal team had consented to the defence being amended to include a claim of alleged contributory negligence on the grounds of the number of pints consumed on the night.



    The club said "Well you've had 10 pints"
    And she said "Amend my defence to include the pub served me too much?"

    Ah now, in fairness Onslo was a decent sort. He kept to himself and his cans and as I recall never engaged in needless litigation.

    Nothing makes the hair stand up on your neck like a person that has a history of "accidental falls" strolling into your premises.

    It would be like putting €10 of diesel into the landcruiser, would only put out the diesel light.

    That's not what the article says. It says she brought a claim of €38,000, and that they then settled for an undisclosed amount.

    No, it means that she accepted that her consumption of 10 points contributed to the accident. She accepted that she was negligent also.
