  Liverpool skipper Gerrard facing civil court action headache

  Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard is facing civil action in the courts.

  The Guardian says Gerrard may face further disruption to his season after the man he punched in a nightclub said he was considering launching a civil action against the player and six of his friends.

  Gerrard was cleared of affray last month following the fracas with the businessman Marcus McGee, but six of the Liverpool midfielder's friends received suspended jail terms and community service.

  McGee, 34, who lost a front tooth and suffered facial cuts in the fight last December, said he has told lawyers to begin civil action for compensation for the injuries he received.

  The father of two said: "I've got dental bills and legal fees arising from what happened. But, more importantly, I don't think justice was properly served.

  "I still can't believe that they all walked free – that they effectively got away with beating me up."

  really??? what will happened if U got hammered by one of SG players? Given they are not mega-bucks earners, will you pat them on the back and say, "good on you", and walk away?

  Justice has to be served irregardlessly. And so what if U are captain of Pool or for that matter MU, Chelsea or etc. U hit someone, 6 vs 1, U got to face the music.

  I applaud the guy who is making a stand.
