[Trevor Morley's Tache]

The fact that the Rags are seriously considering/likely to bring back this vile piece of shit is very telling on their financial situation.

I keep reading on here how bad it will be for the rags if Greenwood is brought back. I find it had to believe that the press/media as a whole will turn on the rags. I just dont see it.
I can see the press/media spinning the 'he deserves another chance he is young ' etc.
If the press/media were going to give the rags a hard time over Greenwood it would have happened by now. The fact that the rags are still thinking about what to do with Greenwood should be enough for the press/media to pile in.

This type of poor behaviour towards women seems to be rife at the rags. When does it get investigated ?

I just get the feeling that Greenwood will play again for the rags, the press/media will help utd ride out the outcry.

I would like to think I am wrong. I would like to think the rags ladies team all hand in transfer requests. I like to think rags, ladies fans walk away from the club but I cant see it.

The fact the rags are taking so long to decide what to do tells me all I need to know.

Tbf, Adam Crafton at The Athletic (who I have little time for) has certainly been holding them to account on this. There have been quite a few critical pieces elsewhere too.

Whilst they have control over msm they don’t over social media- and this is where they will be hit hard and sponsors will take note

The spin will be something along the lines of "well; if the lady in question can forgive him, who are we to deny him a second chance?

There are ways of managing content on social media by somehow manipulating search terms and keyword searching.

The Dipper's are masters at it.

Imagine them getting to another cup final this season he could end up shaking hands with some very "important" people in front of millions which would be interesting.
But then again he might of already received a new years honour by then for all the amazing charity work that he's going to start to do from next week.
This is the rags we are talking about

ETH seems to be sympathetic towards abusers. Who disagreed with the Overmars sacking when he was at Ajax.

You could say that Manchester United are encouraging a rape and abuse culture with zero respect for woman rights

I would like to think that mens players and fan at united walk away. Is it not just as much their job to care about these things too? And arguably would have more impact.

It's all moot anyway. This is a societal wide issue and I expect most clubs have protected abusers or would do so in similar situations.

 

[feedmpenzaandhewillscore]

As well as Greenwood being the utter vie human being he is, looks like Antony has been battering his ex mrs as well. They certainly have a profile of dislikable players they like in their squad.

 

[jacko74]

I cant grasp why united havemt just paid up his contract and let him go . Why are they keeping hold and dragging this on/out??

We've already seen the pie in the sky valuations they placed on Maguire and Mcfoulalot... they obviously perceive Greenwood to be worth £100m+

Only the Saudi’s (or Chelsea) would pay that, no decent club would go anywhere near him

They may well try but they have to realise that decent fans wont forget it.
Ever.

Doesn’t matter what his perceived or actual value are, he’s finished 100%. The women’s game is too big to ignore these days and there will be uproar from them if he’s not let go by the scum…!

He may get an opening abroad somewhere, where woman’s rights are not taken seriously but no chance anywhere else …

Quite right too…!

United, as a club, have this totally deluded image of themselves that they can do no wrong. Are holier than though, do things the right way, the ‘united way’ even. They scoff at city, they tell us we have no history, they call us paedos because of barry bennell, they are always ready to look down their noses at us.

Whilst all the while they were hapoy to treat survivors and widows of munich with utter contempt , whilst milking the tragedy for all its worth.
Were happy to turn a blind eye to a bullying **** in charge.
Gave words of support to sister in law shagging, girlfriend beating weirdo brian briggs.
And now sitting on the fence to gauge reaction to this utter scum bag mason greenwood. Seeing how the land lies, can they still bag a bit of money for him.

They really are a skid mark of a football club.

Just pay his contract up and get rid you slimy red bastards

Well said mate, a great description of the utter scum of a club, its loathsome inhabitants and associates…!

 

[The Future’s Blue!]

The fact that they are even thinking about bringing him back shows how far they have fallen. Desperate for money, they’ve thrown any shred of decency into the gutter.

Will be a stain on their club for decades to come, a club that cannot be seen as a champion of the fans. All about the money.

 

[Rory Bluelow]

The rags seem to be a little more careful these days about what they’re spending and getting big earners like De Gea (and potentially Maguire) off their books. That Arsenal YouTuber seems to think the Greenwood fiasco is really just a Glazer-led cost-cutting exercise…no transfer fee and a mere £75,000 a week (with no chance of asking for more). Apart from him being an abusive and nasty twat…what’s not to like ?
Shitstain of a club.

Maybe this was what InPhantomino was meaning about time for woman to speak up?

Got to disagree with you here. For whatever you think about what happened, by law someone is innocent until proven guilty in a court. We can argue about his guilt, but the fact remains within our system as it currently stands, those that prosecute crime don't believe they can prove his guilt. For what its worth, my view is that the system we have that effectively punishes his girlfriend if she proceeds with a complaint is wrong beyond words.

That being said as an employer, United have a duty of care to their contracted employee however distasteful that might be. Now if it was a situation like Lee Hughes I would agree with you.
