The Hampstead Heath chestnut man who owns the TV trademark Golden Balls is calling for “justice” eight years after he defeated the organisers of an international football award at Europe’s highest court.
Gus Bodur, 57, last month launched a Twitter campaign for compensation after defeating representatives of the Ballon d’Or trophy in the European Court of Justice in 2013.
Gus said the lives of he and his wife, Inez, have been “held back” since the battle began in 2008.
“We have really suffered. I know other people have suffered as well, but the days we’ve gone without. Our two young kids have really gone through it,” Gus said.
