Unfortunately it does not prove he went on and raped her. Nor does the picture of her with the words 'this is what Mason Greenwood does' prove that he hit her. I feel sure that the police interviewed her before arresting him and l hope they got more than enough to charge him.

You mustn't have heard the audio properly mate. Between him telling her to let him do it and threatening her to stop trying to push him off were the sounds of the act being carried out.

To not have him training etc before any stories became public goes against the 'innocent until proven guilty' saying we have in the UK.

Innocent until proven guilty means you don’t get locked up indefinitely before being convicted of a crime.

It doesn’t mean everyone has to pretend you’ve not just been arrested on suspicion of serial rape.

Obviously you know this, because he was suspended by the club when he was charged, despite still being “innocent until proven guilty”.

He is in a prison cell now despite being “innocent until proven guilty”.

The club definitely should have suspended him pending the outcome of the police investigation, and they certainly shouldn’t have had Pep stand up in a press conference and tell everyone that the man arrested for multiple rapes was “a really great guy.”

There were reports of an unnamed player a couple of months prior to his eventual arrest.

It was known to be Mendy, it dies down and I thought it had been dismissed through a lack of evidence, but then the wheels moved quickly.

I think City were caught on the hop, but under no illusions as to Mendy.

Seemingly there was no evidence until he committed more crimes, after which he was rearrested and charged over a couple of days.

There are one or two strange noises towards the end and I couldn't be sure what they were but in my heart of hearts l could not be sure and believe me l wanted it to be definite enough to convict. Perhaps l need more practice watching porn. What do you recommend? ;)
Seriously he will have been in custody for his 24 hours very soon so they will have to charge, release him or get an extension. We can.all play guessing games over that.
 
With this incident and the Mendy one I do wonder whether this is the tip of the iceberg. Are there more stories/instances out there that have still to come to light from clubs all across the country?
There was the instance a few years back involving the Ulster Rugby lads. Different sport it may be, but all young men, athletic and adored by many. Plenty of cash around them and rarely hear the word "NO".
Thinking they can do what they want without any come back.

The line about, not so much as protecting women, as educating young men!
