The Daily Mirror is getting plenty of plaudits today for its Ryan Giggs front page. Former Mirror editor Piers Morgan has praised the current editor in a tweet: "Brilliant. Take a bow Richard Wallace." Some have pointed out that a ruder version of this headline has been circulating on Twitter.

Well done my Mirror! He's made a right prat of himself and deserves everything he gets now. Anyone who owns a computer knew who it was ages ago. I hope his wife leaves him, to stay now would degrade her after all he's done and she deserves better. If I was Imogen I would now sell my story to the highest bidder, you go girl!
WTF. Hows is this helping anything. Sure it's a clever play on words, BUT, the guy made a prat of himself, and as was pointed out, everyone knew about it ages ago. Let's all move on away from this unnecessary vitriol.
