My dad suggested to me today that the judge could maybe find for Vardy but award £1 in damages with both parties paying costs. Does this seem a plausible solution? At first I thought it was silly but the following seem kinda clear:

1. Vardy agent at a minimum was leaking stuff
2. Rooney not averse to publicity seeking herself
3. Entire thing is a massive waste of money and court time

And the following is likely:

1. Technically not possible to prove Vardy was personally leaking anything
2. Judge would want to send out message about wasting court time

Does this seem plausible to legal eagles?
