Somebody on the CAF bumped this thread to continue discussing Greenwood.

Apaprently the Greenwood thread was pulled because it was a sh*tfest

Guessing, there was a minority of diehard Rags supporting and sticking up for Greenwood?

I`d been following that thread this evening and it was probably pulled as it was becoming embarrassing, not for the site but the club. And I don`t think they`d want to bite the hand that feeds them in a round about sort of way.
Whilst the majority of posters were disgusted at the alleged actions their MODs were working overtime deleting dubious posts. There was also some of the historic events surrounding the player being dug up which the club would like to think had remained under the carpet.

Tbf, I didn’t see many posts on there defending Greenwood. Guessing they pulled it as it’s now a criminal investigation. This thread too will probably have to be locked shortly for the same reason, as with the Mendy case.

I would imagine he didnt know anything about Greenwoods alleged past behavior otherwise it wouldn't look good on him at all as a Father. I can't think of many Father's that would stand for any nonsense from a boyfriend much less physical abuse.

I certainly hope so.
It's just that his statement today was bizarre, although there may be genuine reasons for that eg in shock or just repeating what he had been told.
 
If it goes to Court, which I doubt, as the pressure on Harriet Robson will be immense, Greenwood will have the best Lawyers PL wages can buy.
 
Her father's statement has pissed me off. I hope it's just poorly worded. "you don't want to know things like that are happening to your daughter"?!

My own dad once drove 100 miles through the night to get me away from a man who did far less to me than Greenwood allegedly did to Harriet.

It shouldn't be about needing protection - in an ideal world it would be about nobody doing this shit - but it breaks my heart to think she might not have had someone to fight her corner when this was allegedly happening to her.

I was reading it earlier.

More than 19 out of 20 posts were completely condemning Greenwood and saying the right thing, then every so often you’d get some idiot victim blaming and the staff would ban them. It wasn’t a defence of United thing, it was just classic misogyny.

The vast majority of United fans are as appalled as we are.

My daughter was abused about 12 years ago
I tried my best to get to the **** but he was always getting locked UP.
Eventually he got 6 years for having sex with an 11 year old.
5 years !!
If he ever shows his face in My town again, he's gone.
I never forget.

Fair enough.

We all know what the Rags are like as a fanbase. They have hardcore of fans who never see anything wrong associated with the club.

The fact that Harriet Robson has made the incidents and actions of Greenwood public on social media should cover BM and every other website that is running with the story and discussing it. This isn't alleged. The proof of what happened is there for everyone to see. Unless she used fake blood coming from her mouth, etc, which I doubt.

I think a few on here are currently guilty of “footballification” over this incident, trying to demonise the club and it’s supporters, tarring them with the same Greenwood brush.
I think most United fans are husbands/partners/brothers/boyfriends/ fathers etc… first, and football comes in way below them in importance, as a result they will rightly condemn the actions of Greenwood, on a human level, the fact he once played for their club is quite frankly redundant at this point in time.

I disagree you are asking too much of someone, especially as you know no details.

It may be Southgate who has refused to work with him.

I’ll ask you a question, do you think Pep knew that Mendy was being investigated for rape prior to him being officially charged?

If so, do you think he should go?

For the record, I think he will have done but both him and Mendy would be employees of City. The decision was made by City at not him. I think City as a club should have suspended from the time of the arrest. However, I am not privy to the full details they have, the employment law aspect and other factors City had when making the decision for him to carry on training/ playing until officially charged.

The first Mendy incident involved lockdown parties at his home and was in October 2020. It was widely known at the time but perhaps the club didn't know the full details. But he continued to have lockdown parties and no action was apparently taken by the club till the later rape allegations came out. Hopefully we will find out what happened when the court case happens.

Unfortunately the British legal system will enable him to walk free Money talks

It was on their website nearly all day and as I said in my last reply, nearly everyone was completely condemning Greenwood and want him sacked.

Many were also questioning the club’s knowledge of it and some were even talking about the Ronaldo story. Redcafe has a lot of sensible people who discuss things on there.

Unfortunately as ever there were a few trolls and the staff obviously got sick of policing it.

Very true… United fans have recently tried to use the Mendy case to attack City too, when what that **** allegedly has done isn’t anything to do with City fans. I’ve even had United fans try and use Adam Johnson and Robinho as banter to City fans, when both were long gone from the club when they committed their heinous crimes. It’s the levels of tribalism in football that let things get silly.

Unless there’s further evidence that says otherwise, this is a Mason Greenwood issue and not the fault of United or United fans.
