I've said it before on this topic, a leopard doesn't change it's spots.
Many years ago a woman that I knew was beaten to a pulp by her husband, he was put on remand because it was so serious. He got her to withdraw the charges and no further action was taken. A year later he raped her, beat her to death and dumped her body in a skip, he's currently serving life.
After his trial the police and cps were given a major bollocking for not proceeding with a prosecution for the first offence, she was completely under his control and would have been too scared to go ahead with the prosecution. They said lessons had been learnt, roll on 10 years later and obviously nothing has.
I believe she's made the biggest mistake of her life and will regret it in years to come.

The only way lessons can be learned is by sacking the people involved and bringing them to justice, Letting him walk away free the first time and then saying lessons needed to be learnt is no support to her family, I can say 100% it happened many times before and still does,

The CPS are not accountable and the same laws of the land do not apply to everybody or not everybody is treated the same, Power and Money talks and loops holes are found to bury a case like Greenwood,

They’d need far more than just that. Even if the women’s teams did sell out every game at the men’s PL grounds and tickets were as expensive as the men’s, that would be nowhere near enough to be paying the women the same as the men.

Men’s ticketing alone, which how much the tickets cost, only brings in about £85-100m to clubs.

The women’s teams would need to also be bringing in the TV revenue and sponsorship deals that the men’s teams do, where you’re then talking of clubs earning the £400m up to £600m a year revenue they do, to be able to pay the fellas what the big clubs pay them.

Women’s teams only bring in about £2m a year revenue to clubs. That’s only about what the rise in season ticket prices, for the 40odd-thousand we have at City, has been this Summer.

Horrific stuff.
I really hope you are wrong in your prediction but unfortunately, I fear you're not.

Shows how thick United are. It will actually be dangerous for him to play at away grounds. They’re risking putting him in harms way (good) and potential issues with supporters/teammates etc just cause he might score a few goals.

Perhaps hoping he gets attacked and seriously injured so that they can claim the insurance money.

Nothing these cunts do is without some perceived benefit or monetary gain.

The last time I saw it the caption introducing it was something like this;
'Da fuck is this? yo mad bro you is on drugs'

Seems the prick took it down when the shit hit the fan.
 
Been on other fans forums to see what they think about the Greenwood situation and pretty much everyone is in total agreement.

This scumbag should never set foot on a football pitch in any professional capacity again.

Utd(not for the first time) have completely misread the room and are just thinking of this in an asset capacity.

I bet they've never even discussed what kind of reception he will get at away grounds

how would you want the cps to be more accountable
 
The only way Greenwood could ever come back would be to do an interview explaining what happened, the context, his contrition and his growing up since.

Even then, it would depend on how credible he sounded.

If the new evidence/context is never published, he’ll always be viewed as a domestic abuser and rapist.

Surely, the rags reputation is worth more to them than the £7m or whatever it would take to pay him off.
