Look at the comments under this. These boys/so called men are actually out there and are fine with what Greenwood said and did.

Fear for my step-daughter meeting an evil **** like this.

The rags were fine pleasing people like this too.

Glory hunter, she only started supporting them after 99, they're shit now so it's an easy get out.


(Am only joking, good on her if she carries it through if he does return. I think most utd fans will do the same if it happens )

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.

You can bet your bottom dollar she regrets it every minute of every day. She won't get a moment's real peace as long as she's with him. She's surrounded by evil people.

On a side note.

I read today that Gazza wouldn’t have gone off the rails like he did if he had joined Utd.
Because he would have been chaperoned by Bryan Robson. Lol

As a child of the 80s in Alty I remember seeing Captain Marvel puking out of a black cab as I walked home from school.

I remember my next door neighbour telling me the Elephant man shoved his hand down her knickers in the back of a Rolls Royce whilst his wife was in one of the other seats, oblivious to what he was attempting with a 17 yo girl.

Wait until his times up I guarantee the ban Hanmer will never gave been busier in here.
He'll have to be regarded as "a football man", "a maverick", "a man of his time". Rather than the bullying, obnoxious c#nt he was.

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.

Not gonna happen since Prince Andrew tried it ....LMAO !!

I can't believe this is happening, those fucking morons at the Swamp keep giving and giving.

(Good on Rachel Riley btw)

Seriously, there's a flaw in the law that these rich arseholes can get away with this shit.
 
Clearly not bothered about who RR supports but I am struggling to understand something.

The evidence is out there so why were all the charges against him dropped?

As they were dropped he’s not been to court so there is no judgement against him.

The whole “not guilty” verses “innocent” debate on another thread is kind of what I mean.

As I say if the CPS dropped the charges despite the evidence that is in the public domain it makes me wonder what is going on!

Neither am I but it's wonderfully bad PR for the rags..one of their celeb fans will turn their back on them.
I don't blame her either.
Men should NEVER be able to treat women like that.

His girlfriend dropped the charges, so the CPS had no option but to drop the charges. It helps to have the charges dropped when your a multi millionaire able to bribe people.

He's a scum bag. Astonishing utd are even considering bringing him back. Good for Riley and her public stand shaming them.

They're a bunch of dimwits at the swamp, this lad is gonna be booed off the park by opposing fans and the controversy is gonna roll on and on with people turning their backs on the club.
From supposedly the biggest club in the world...obviously run by the biggest clowns.

There is something so fundamentally wrong at United it's actually beyond bizarre.. They can't get anything right.. Literally nothing...And that takes some doing..

I agree... and yet they still manage to somehow be in and around the top 4.

Any other club that performed so woefully, both on and off the pitch, would struggle to be in the top half of the table.

It just shows how much favouritism, help and assistance they receive from officials and VAR.
 
It shows how much Rachel Riley supports the club. Protest yes, gob off about it in the paper Yes, slag of the management of the club Yes but never ever change your allegiances.

It won't be long until we get the hangers-on presenters saying they're city fans. God help us.

By the mistakes they make when it comes to high-profile cases like this Greenwood case, There is no way on earth they let any normal person drop a case of GBH and make a threat to kill to a woman by a Man or partner, the amount of evidence they had on Greenwood was nailed on guilty,

Powers high up the ladder at the CPS have pulled strings and let this happen, Members of the golden handshake club
have asked and got this case to be buried

My thoughts exactly

Andrew certainly didn’t pass the credibility test, did he?!

It does seem crazy to bring Greenwood back, unless the evidence or context that they’ve heard subsequently paints a different picture. Surely, though, they’d have published that straight away and started the healing process.

The issue the CPS have is that if Greenwood‘s partner decided to say it was roleplay and that she’d used a fake blood capsule and that the audio had been edited and cut together, how could they be sure of a conviction?

I think we all know what has happened and how it’s played out.

The question now is What happens if united do bring him back and what would then make them change their mind? Sponsor pull outs? Boycotting games?

Well this is where I’m confused.

If the CPS thought there was enough evidence to compile a case, then drop it, Why?

According to the legal experts on another thread the preference of the victim to prosecute or not is irrelevant. It’s the responsibility of the CPS?
