Paul FC McGirr was able to obtain a section 10 dismissal for Mr Jennings last week, as the Daily Telegraph reports:
Lawyer Paul McGirr told the court it was a “very unfortunate incident” that reflected the adage “nothing good happens after midnight”.
“Mr Jennings had thought sometimes because of the colour of his skin he might be targeted,” Mr McGirr said.
“It’s extremely embarrassing to him, to his club and most importantly to his family, because it was not the way he was brought up.”
He said the recently-married Jennings, who regularly takes part in charity functions and school and hospital visits, had been punished enough.
“He’s a quiet gentleman always happy to assist,” Mr McGirr said.
