great!!! hope the McCann's can make both events that day
ReplyDeleteI did think December 11 would be the perfect day for a book launch. Interesting times ahead.
ReplyDeleteWill the book be available in English at all?.
ReplyDeleteThey surely wouldn't turn up at the launch would they.
Excellent news! You know the McCanns are desperate when the resurrect Hewlettgate! Roll on Friday ;;)
ReplyDeleteJust Great, the Tapas 9 have now my full support to travel to Lisbon, be present at the livraria -- but must sleep under the bridge, amongst their fellow rats. And no scrambled eggs for break., though.
ReplyDeleteJamar
I wonder if it will be available in Spanish (and in Spain).
ReplyDeleteDoes anyone know?
Let's hope he arrives at a specific CONCLUSION as to why he was allegedly gagged.
ReplyDeleteImagine the mccies queuing up to have their copy signed by GA just before going to court???? jajajajaja.....
ReplyDeleteWell done Gonçalo! Perfect timing! couldnt be better... =))
Y muchisimas gracias al editor Español para permitir la publicacion del nuevo libro de Dr.Amaral.

I guess this new book ,as much as the "Famous IN-famous" ,one will be in spanish,yes.....Ole! Ole! y Ole!!!!!
Outch number 7, have a stone in your shoe?
ReplyDeleteJoana, people in the UK don't know who Moita Flores is.
ReplyDeleteIt would be wise to explain it.
As well as May 3rd, December 11 is not going to be a date that the McCanns will forget in a hurry.
ReplyDeleteAnd people on the rest of Europe and on the American continent don't know it either.
ReplyDeletewho knows the McCanns are prepared to sign the books.
ReplyDeleteI for one am looking forward to reading Gonçalo Amaral's newbook. Maybe the McCanns will attend the book launch and ask for an autographed copy.
ReplyDeleteI am pleased to see that there are a lot of important people who support him and that he is not at all alone in his fight for justice, not just for Maddie but for everyone. It takes a lot of courage to take up this battle.
I presume the British media are coming to Lisbon.
ReplyDeleteI hope Sunday Express will be present.
The British media will still be bound by the super-injunction.Perhaps The Guardian have decided to report nothing at all, rather than be obliged to report from a pro-McCann stance.
ReplyDeleteWay to go Gonçalo xx
ReplyDeleteWonderful news. Don't you just admire this man, what a contrast to the Maccanns take that Kate and Gerry,Woosh Woosh. as for the UK MEDIA rats the lot of them
ReplyDeleteGreetings to Amaral from another group of people from the VU hospital in Amsterdam.
ReplyDeletewhats stopped the mccanns from trying the old carter ruck trick and getting this book banned.i hope it is in english
ReplyDeletelooking forvard to read it ASAP!!
ReplyDelete"I like your style Sir, and not least your timing."

I'm afraid that if the British media is present (and they probably will), they will again report how the disgusting Portuguese mistreated the brave McCann couple who are in Portugal to clear their name (pls read to extort some money) of the increbible claims contained in the book bla bla bla. And then again they will have a go at GA. We know the score..
ReplyDeleteI just love Sr Amarals' style, way to go, hope i can get an English copy, just what i need for Christmas!
ReplyDeleteFerris 23 - You have put into words my thoughts exactly!
ReplyDeleteThe McCanns will milk this opportunity to appear the 'persecuted' couple and the UK media will make sure they are the good guys in all this!
ReplyDeleteGood luck Goncalo - many of us are backing you and admire your dedication!
23, do you think the British public are stupid?
ReplyDeleteThey know what happened.
They know their media are gagged.
Hurray! Sky's Martin Brunt has blogged and it's close to the facts of the matter at hand as one can get in any press :-o
ReplyDeleteMcCanns v Amaral...The Next Round
Martin Brunt December 09, 2009 7:36 PM
Kate and Gerry McCann will launch their libel action against former police chief Goncalo Amaral in Lisbon on Friday.
They want a permanent ban on his book The Truth of the Lie, in which he challenged their version of events the night their daughter Madeleine vanished in May, 2007.
And they want around a million pounds in damages, money they say will go to the Madeleine Fund to support the continuing search for her.
I'm not expecting them to give evidence at the opening of a hearing that may drag on for several months.
In September, the McCanns got a temporary ban on the book, which they claim is hampering public support for the search.
Mr Amaral had many of his assets frozen and thousands of unsold copies of the book were returned to the McCann lawyers.
It sounds like a potentially explosive courtroom confrontation, but I understand Mr Amaral may not even be there.
Rumours on the ground suggest he may be across the city launching a new book.

Of cause the British Police know the truth , they along with the media have been gagged . The guilt rests with those who are supporting the McCann's lies , whoever THEY are , let's hope for an eleventh hour Whistle Blower exposing the McCann's for what they have done to Madeleine and for all hell to break lose for the sake of justice for little Madeleine , then maybe she will rest in peace .

ReplyDeleteI don't put the British people and the British press in the same pot.
JUST IN TIME "VERY IMPORTANT "NEWS"!

Well done! I sure said Moita Flores and others would know exactly where their opinion mattered.
ReplyDeleteRoll on Friday! :D
Joana did you know where we can buy the new book? Can we order it trough Internet? Just in time... I decide my present to friends and family that cristhmas.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations Mr. Amaral... in few weeks your new book will be a Best-seller in all countrys where will be released.
Wonder... to see the Mccann's HURRY launching a new campaign asking more donations. THEY NEED MONEY TO PAY THE TRANSLATION OF THE NEW BOOK and a deep analise of the book by lawyers and other experts. They teached the world how to be insane and ask insane amounts of money. I HOPE ALL PEOPLE " hired" by the Mccann's to work on the new Amaral book, will ask them an insane amount of money to do the job. On Mccann's life all the numbers have no less then 6 figures. Remember that, guys, when you negociate with them.
Moita Flores is a criminologist, a writter, a University teacher and also the Mayor of Santarem ( a town near Lisbon).
ReplyDeleteFor long time he worked in the PJ.
Famous supporters of Amaral are people with high education and high reputation in Portugal, which don't need Maddie case to get protagonism and some minutes of fame on the shine stage of the Media. Contrary... Mccann's supporters, are the " Bimbos" of the football and the " Gringos" of the Media. THIS SAYS ALL ABOUT THE ALL SAGA... BIMBOS AND GRINGOS LOVE TO BE PART OF THE "BIMBOGRINGOLANDIA".
BIMBOGRINGOLANDIA =)) muito bom!!
ReplyDeleteLiverpool are out of the champions League, and tonight I don't care I am laughing and very very happy, Liverpool out and the maccanns in (court of course)Mr Amaral champion of Europe. What a man.
ReplyDeletePlease Mr Amaral, get this published in English ASAP, the English speaking world is desperate for your books, this one is not injuncted, please don't wait until they play that little game again, an English language copy please!!!!
ReplyDelete37 is right.....get the book on Amazon quickly.
ReplyDeleteAdorava estar lá amanhã, tanto no tribunal com uma mordaça, como na apresentação do livro, mas está um pouco difícil. Vai alguém da zona de Braga?
ReplyDeleteAll power to Amaral!
ReplyDeleteNow let's get a read of this book in English please. Who the hell are the McCanns to tell me what I can or can't believe?
I find it hard to believe anything that comes out of the mouths of child neglecting parents. 'Series of Checks' my ass.
Bravo Sn Amaral - a new chapter in Mccanns circus. GOOD LUCK AND WELL DONE, freedom of speech for all, this book should soon be in WH Smith's front window - BEST SELLER - the Mccanns cannot suppress freedom of speech they are two pathetic murder suspects, with a group of ignorant, low life friends - JUSTICE FOR MADDIE. Top of my wish list.... 'I WANT THIS BOOK IN ENGLISH NOW!!'
ReplyDeleteBrilliant news Dr Amaral this is very positive, we desperately need this book in English, just imagine if it were available in our Book Shops, that really would be the end for the Mccanns. PLEASE GOD let this be the breakthrough that we need Kate and Gerry need to be shown up for the money grabbing CRIMINALS that they are. POSTIVE NEWS AT LAST YIPPEEEE.
