          Key witnesses withdrew, hmmmmm

          I wonder what united will do with him, I mean the stuff is out there, everyone has seen it. Sponsors will be unhappy if he comes back into the fold.

            Yeah the video and audio recordings of him doing what he did were pretty damning. What he was saying himself during it sounded very much like it was not his first time either.

            People may argue that people say or do stupid things when they are young but certain things you know are beyond the pale, and you do not cross those lines unless you are a complete and utter scumbag.


            He did that same **** without being a footballer with a ton of money to pay for the best legal aids (and no doubt that wealth brings more than a smidge of influence also be it in the form of a settlement or hush money) then someone's father, brother or friends would dish out any justice the courts failed to implement.

            Not saying that him getting a hiding for it would have been the right thing and the logical next step, but there are plenty of fathers, brothers and so on using this site and I wager that the vast majority of them would not be for just turning the other cheek if their daughter/sister/friend etc was the woman on the receiving end of things in those recordings. They would want justice, poreferably through the courts, for their loved one.
            I don't hate people. I just feel better when they aren't around.

              Yep. Nothing to do with him being a Man U player but we all saw the photos and listened to the recording. It is obvious how the millionaire Mason Greenwood found a way out of this.

              As with all of these guys what has gone on is not ok. That they have not been prosecuted is not ok.what they admit to doing is not ok. And the example this sets is utterly depressing.

                  Well in any country where having some wealth creates a two or three tier legal system.

                  Look at Conor McGregor over here in Ireland.

                  Various "incidents" involving him in Ireland, the US, Liverpool, and other spots.

                  The sort of things that would would see you and I locked up for.


                  He has yet another alleged assault against a woman case starting here in Ireland. A woman from the same estate as him that he is alleged to have kicked, punched and gone nuts on, and she then had to jump off of a boat into the sea to escape him.

                  What has been confirmed so far is that a nearby boat did pull her from the water and that the red cross then went out to provide medical aid to her. So something occured onboard the yacht that caused a woman to receive bruising etc and for her to end up in the sea.


                  No doubt will end in McGregor doing a quick settlement and then slagging her off online afterward.

                  Bit like when he hit the older man ( a total stranger to him) in the pub just because the older man did not want a whiskey. Then he lost that case and soon after made a big announcement that he was barring the old man that he assaulted from anywhere he ( McGregor) owned.

                  Lot of these scumbag sports people would be nothing more than goons or runners for their local drug dealers had they not made it in sports.

                    Not sure the money element matters either. Its something like 1% of rape allegations in the UK result in a conviction.

                          I just happened upon the 'evidence' online - the recording is still shocking. I guess he can make her financially complete for the rest of her life. But will she every really recover from the beatings and abuse...

                          It is utterly grim.

                          Not a discussion or argument I want to be part of. And definitely not on Twitter.

                          Utd in a real tricky spot here as he was not acquited. Apparently the case fell apart over a year ago (Id imagine when she dropped charges) and the CPS have finally had to let it go.

                              Abused woman goes back to abusive partner. They almost always do. Multiple times

                                I may be mistaken but when it first broke her father was defend Greenwood saying what a good lad he was.
