This is the face of the man at the centre of the super-injunction scandal in Manchester.
This man wants news of his affair with tasty meal about town Patty de Foie Gras concealed from the public.
The large man may or may not be a restaurant critic with a foreign name. (Readers of Confidencial de Espana, which is not subject to the jurisdiction of English law, may wish to check our sister site www.confidencialespana.com/esGordoimbeciles).
Miss de Foie Gras told Manchester Confidential that “It was a real love affair. I don’t why he is doing this? I’ve been seen out at all the main city restaurants with him drooling over my strong yet delicate looks, we were inseparable.
"And he likes my hugely inflated livers too, naughty boy.
"I thought we had a chance," she tearfully continued. "All the worry has even prevented me doing gigs now.”
The courts have granted 'the may or may not be a restaurant critic' an injunction in their own words, “to make us look completely foolish, out of touch and as though we have no authority.”
The lawyers who represent celebrities taking out super-injunctions say: “It’s really very simple and a point of principle. Principally it makes us loads of money.”
Twitter says, “Who gives a damn about the law, it’s the best publicity we've ever had in the UK?”
SUBSEQUENT to this article being published, a MP has named the Manchester man as Ryan Giggs.
This is a surprise, we didn't realise Giggs had put on so much weight and liked foie gras.
Gordo has won the Food Reviewers' Premier-eater title eleven times in the last nineteen seasons - commentators while surprised by his appetite for success, are amazed by his appetite.

I passed a very bewildered-looking man earlier this evening, just after 5.30pm, clutching some Waitrose carrier bags, on a back street near the Town Hall.
He looked like the man above, except he didn't have the Adam Ant stripe, and was fighting his way through hundreds of footie fans dressed in pale bleu chanting "Cit-eh".
I claim the 'Spot the Mystery Man' prize. Used notes please.
He tried it on with me as well, I feel used!!!
Guys & gals @ ManCon: you may all relax now...
I agree Ryan Giggs has definitely put on weight. But he knows more about food than I thought
Gordo only took out the injunction because I did. All he is doing is basking in the warm afterglow of my secret affairs. He does know a fair bit about food though. I'll give him that.
Is Gordo Giggs available for a meal and a scandal tonight
I think you mean Imogen Thomas...but all those Welsh names are a bit similar aren't they?
