    Man Utd fan arent ya? You sound like an apologist. Listen to the audio. Greenwood is a despicable character and that alone should see consequences.

    Like I said we don’t know the ins and out but to do what’s she’s done is either down to anger or she’s not been taken seriously....... this all happened in October so why do it now ?????
    Like I said nobody has a clue but pictures of beating and tape recordings of abuse ain’t great are they ????

    The words that came out of that cretins mouth are enough evidence for me to tell you what a revolting specimen he is. His tone, language, threats etc. He may not have beaten her up, he may not have raped her but his foul mouth is enough for me to judge him on that alone.

    Its also very telling that De Gea, Cavani, Pogba and Telles have unfollwed him on social media and blocked him. No doubt disgusted by him and want to distance themselves.

    It's going to cost them a wedge, either way. They'll have to write off a £100m asset, or if they're seen to be soft, then sponsors will likely walk away which could cost more.

    The trouble for Greenwood is everybody has heard the tape. So whether he is guilty or not that is going to stay with him. He deserves whatever he gets

    Not after this, but he'll be in that range in terms of what he's shown as on their balance sheet.

    Trial by social media is a route to hell. The presumption of innocence until being proven guilty is fundamental to society. The actual truth to what happened could be a number of different things.

    Sadly that's true. The virtue signalling position that corporations take now, will be such that the pressure placed on United by its sponsors will force their hand. It won't matter whether he actually committed the offences that he was originally charged with, or even whether he's the victim of something false and malicious. Trial by the court of public opinion is all that matters these days. Its a very, very slippery slope we're on.

    Remember Jessica Ennis-Hill asking for her name to be removed from the stand at Bramall Lane if they resigned Ched Evans? Similar sort of thing, hunting for the moral high ground to gain likes. As much as i detest how certain folk treat women, there is a culture now of trial by social media.

    I'd say the scales are weighted very heavily numbers wise in favour of the failed victims of domestic abuse as opposed to gold diggers falsely accusing celebrities. Money literally can buy you anything as Prince Andrew has proven. But as you say, sexual assault allegations are pretty much the hardest cases to prosecute, only 2% of cases end up with a conviction. That means for whatever reason 98% end up with no charge. A damning indictment of a failed legal system.

    The strange thing with the Key Witnesses withdrawing is despite what people are assuming it's almost certainly not her. A couple of articles have mentioned that she had been requesting the case be dropped as far back as April. He wasn't charged until October (and that was largely triggered because she had been back living with him for months which was a breach of his parole) so she wasn't cooperating with the police even before it was handed to the CPS to make their decision if to proceed. It seems unlikely that they were relying on someone as a key witness who hadn't been cooperating and had been asking for it to be dropped and who when he was being charged was sitting with his Family. It strikes me the CPS were relying on 3rd Parties as witnesses and some evidence has come up that undermines them so they have pulled out rather than having their reputation ruined (and maybe even later sued)

    That's the part I can't fathom. Why go to all the trouble of recording the alleged abuse with audio and visual evidence, what was the end game to all this? In my eyes this has done nothing to back victims of genuine domestic violence, I'm just glad it wasn't my daughter, it wouldn't have ended so well for the lad.

    Probably shines a light on why he's been axed from the England squad and the noise on the street with United is that Greenwood has been 'unprofessional' in his approach to his career. A massive talent wasted, and he will only have himself to blame.
