The whole world, football and otherwise accepted him. I see this playing out a bit differently. Dont you? There were protests and petitions to stop Ronaldo being signed and I bey you barely anyone on this site even knows that happened. If you think the English media are going to hang a young English player out to dry then you're grossly mistaken. It'll be the same as Ronaldo in that they'll just swamp any bad press with good press and hope the majority of people simply don't cate. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't want to think what happened after she stopped recording. I wish I had never listened to it, I get that there are Legal ramifications but that little piece of shit should be getting plastered all over the News Channels. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am pre emptively assuming a rather large scale social media backlash happening here. I dont think any media publication is going to misjudge the room so badly as to go on a Greenwood charm offensive. This is abhorrent stuff and I genuinely dont think it will be able to be buried. Again, perhaps I am being overly optimistic that justice gets served this time, but I dont think Greenwood gets off with this. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's seemingly a "high profile" Liverpool player who's been at it too, but everyone with knowledge is expected to keep quiet about it. It's quite clearly rife amongst footballers.

Thorongil Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 It needs to be investigated properly and see what happens. It definitely doesn’t look good, but I wouldn’t rush to a clear judgment based on what is currently in the public domain. Looks like a likely career ender for Greenwood from what we know right now and possibly a prison sentence. There have been question marks around his character previously. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's quite clearly rife amongst footballers.This is something I have no doubt is true. Not specifically the Liverpool player as its first iv heard and dont know who you are referring to, but in general that all sorts of horrendous behaviour gets shooshed on a regular basis. The problem for Greenwood is that now the cat is well and truly out of the bag and he is being tried openly in the court of public opinion. No hints, no superinjunctions, no cloak and dagger stuff like your Liverpool man. Actual pictures and recordings a Google search away and more than likely by now, trending. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DukDukGoose Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 I was very surprised by a former Dons behaviour and reaction when a lassie who'd been accepting drinks from his friend all night didn't want it going further. He'd have been on £2k a week max. Can only imagine the entitlement £80k brings. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Satoshi Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 He's finished, and it will be the audio recording that does it. Fair play to the women for having the wearwithal to record (even if, as posted earlier, it makes clear it wasn't the first time). Sadly, there are lots of active footballers (and other professional athletes) who get away with brutal domestic violence. The pictures could have been brushed under the carpet with a handsome payoff (I believe it's called a 'Raheem Sterling') but the audio sinks him. Everton and Man City have recently set the standard for what to do in such cases and anything less than this will be a massive public failure on behalf of Man Utd. Let's not pretend fellow number 11 Giggs only became an abuser after he retired either. Both the club and media will have known and covered it up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
