To Whom It May Concern:
As you may be aware, Up The Arse! is the Premier Spurs Bashing fanzine.
We refer to your website at www.fa-carling.com. Part of the website called “Premier Fixture List” features fixture lists for various clubs for the competition organised by the FA Premier League for the season 2000/2001.
Please see the attached document titled “Up The Arse! Diary”. Please note that we own the copyright and all other rights to it and/or any part of it. We have sealed this document and sent it via registered post to ourselves to prove the authenticity and creation date, should the need arise.
We are providing you with advanced notice that we are asserting our right to be known as the authors of this diary. If you insist on producing a “2001/2002” fixture list for the Premier League, you will be infringing our copyright.
We require your written undertaking that you will not create or allowed to be licensed any list which contains any part of this document at any time prior to the start of the 2001/2002 season. If you do so we have instructed our solicitors to commence proceedings forthwith and without further notice. Please note that if you insist of infringing our copyright we may also contact your internet service provider with a view to placing a block on your website until all your infringements are eliminated to our satisfaction. We will also request that any sites bearing this material after obtaining a “licence” from yourselves remove any such breach of our copyright immediately and without recourse to compensation.
Our rights are hereby fully reserved, and we also reserve the right to produce a copy of this letter to the court, on the question of costs.
We look forward to hearing from you as a matter of urgency.
Yours faithfully
Up The Arse!
