Things may have got a bit better but we still have a huge way to go when it comes to all things DV and sexual crimes related.
Mason Greenwood | Please be respectful and stay on topic

No. We tried that and it was far worse.
Talented footballer with potential world class, 2 footed, best finisher in the club right now, and his general play is very matured and far above Rashford imo. With his talent, it is not difficult to find buyer who is willing to spend money on him and his wages is 75k pw. But I have a strong feeling Greenwood is going to be in United squad next season instead of being sold. We need a goalscorer, the manager always indicate to welcome him to his squad, the club doesn’t take into action to release him. The moment the club decided not to release him by paying 7.8m remaining his contract last summer indicates that the club still see valuable assets in him means the club prioritise the asset over the action he did. The club probably loan him out because the club felt he needs to get out of England for at least a season to cool down the hates and he needs a full match fitness.
I will feel nothing if he end up playing for this club again. I judge footballer based on what they do on the pitch not what they do outside the pitch. I judge Greenwood differently as a footballer and as a person. The same how I view Ryan Giggs, legend of the club and brilliant footballer, but I don’t rate him as a person.

You know the reasons as they have been explained numerous times by GB and others yet you continue to deliberately misrepresent things
And by random I assume you mean numerous long term poster who have said exactly that and a number of mods who think that is how it appeared even if it wasn't the intent.
So stop it.
Stop misrepresenting what? You even said it yourself:
I'm a random as well if it makes you feel better. I don't understand the hostility.
EDIT: I see you think I'm purposely omitting the issue of moderating two threads. Well, I'm not. I'm just commenting of what it seemed was the "biggest issue". That's all.
where were all of you when epstein was arrested? he was excellent at building paedo islands. for that, we should have been able to look past all his transgressions, like building a paedo island.
Can you please just focus on his performance as a stockbroker? We don't need to be reminded about his transgressions all the time.
You do know he's dead right?
Would you feel the same "nothing" though if he'd done what he was accused of to a family member of yours, your wife, your daughter? I think it'd be a bit harder to seperate and just enjoy his football then? I think people who can separate these things just don't feel empathy for strangers.
Isn't that what mainstream media, power structures and large swathes of society are doing - sadly enough - because the VVIPs who enjoyed their time on the island are still in their positions of power and get nowhere near the kind of pillorying MG gets despite their transgressions and denials.
The world is messed up as it is and there are a fair few of us who use football to unplug from all the politics, social injustices, warmongering, culture wars and whatnot because it's exhausting.
You do know he's not being serious right?
I wouldn’t feel nothing for that, I would feel very upset. But that’s because I know how my family would react, and in reality my family would react differently to how the girlfriend and her family reacted. So the question you should ask yourself is If the victim feels nothing towards but still in love with Greenwood now, why should other people care more and feel something? The one who got involved don’t care, why should I need to feel something towards people who don’t care? It makes zero sense for me to feel bad towards her and her family when they act like this actually didn’t happen.
If she and her family feels something, they shouldn’t drop the charge, she shouldn’t live with Greenwood, they shouldn’t hang out anymore, they should have break up now, and she shouldn’t be posting smile and happy video with Greenwood in social media like they are lovely couple, and they shouldn’t be thinking to become a parent (she’s pregnant right now).
What do you mean 'apparently'?
You do know why he's on loan?
It's a pretty unique situation.
If your only contribution to this thread is to continuously reiterate how shit it is, maybe stay out of it?
When was her first kid born?
I see the names of Barton & Epstein appearing for some bizarre reason - interesting that those moaning about false equivalence are keeping quiet on these absolutely irrelevant comparisons!
July - unless he knows something we don't she is not currently pregnant, I assume the other poster is getting confused

It definitely wasn't worse. For most of its life it was pretty chill, then near the end because some people were upset that it existed and that he was starting to perform well they did their best to derail it (even gloating in the general united thread about doing so) and it got closed (again with said posters gloating about its closure). This thread for example in general is a lot more chaotic than the loan one was. All the loan thread needed was those derailing it to be banned from it and it would have been like any other player discussion.

It was far far worse. I'd say the modding effort was about 5x more than now. We thread banned many posters on both "sides" (which is a manual hassle in of itself) and that helped very little. Which is why it needed to be shut.
Fair enough.
Absolutely, but pretending that suddenly society is in the toilet “these days” when we as a society have never been better with all of these matters is just plain idiotic.
Go on then, tell me the time period that society wasn’t down the toilet? Back up your “these days” claim.Oh ffs
Show me a time when we as a society have been better at understanding and dealing with DV for example.
As Wibble says, we’ve still a long way to go, but undoubtedly we’ve never been better.
Agreed. Many things have improved hugely. Although I'm of an age now where I should be grumbling as if civilisation totally went down the toilet in the 80's (ish)

Yeah I'm the same, we're moving in the right direction on almost all topics.

These unsubtle shitty arse kind of comments are precisely why this thread is a divisive cesspit. Because people on redcafe don't hold the same opinion as you on Mason Greenwood = society is fecked and men hate women. You sound like a bunch of fecking dolts. Cop on.
I've said before that if the club + ten Hag decide to show him the door then great, we can move on. But the way some carry-on in here it's no wonder this thread needs nuking. And it definitely comes from both sides, it's just one side seems to get pulled up on the antagonistic spiel a hell of a lot more than the other.
That is what I thought.
December player of the month for them? Good on him.
I actually think playing for this Getafe team will work out for him in the long run for the simple fact that he has to get involved in their general play there (often coming deep) because, otherwise, they don't do much.
Here, whilst we're not great ourselves, he could afford to drift out of games and still get a chance because we had the likes of, Martial, Rashford, Bruno, Pogba, etc at different points in form. At Getafe, there's no such luxury, and, as a result, he's already becoming the teams focal point which should elevate his general play to the next level. He's already trying to dictate things in a way he never did for us.
totally agree. my fellow holocaust deniers and i are always met with derision and scorn but the same levels aren’t reserved for those who believe in it.
fair. Greenwood is obviously a scumbag. Anyone that says it was make-up etc is def also a weapon. I don't think advocating for him to be at United means you are plotting to kill all women in society, though. Or maybe it does feck knows.if your side of the fence contains the most weapons, it’s a good indication you might need to reconsider which side of the fence you’re on. i spent a lot of my time in here mocking people’s incorrect points of view and horrible takes, but for the record, i don’t blame greenwood. the jews are clearly responsible. i just haven’t pieced it all together yet.
Nah I won't bother engaging with you, your a ridiculously aggressive, arseholey poster and always have been, I remember your shite in the COVID thread. So no I won't give you the time of day apart from this reply.
I'll let you figure out the difference here, Sherlock!
I've never once complained this is a shit thread. Only called out a poster for aggression towards someone with a differing opinion. Not sure why you made that up.
On that note, why are you so aggressive? You've done this before and it's tiresome.
What's tiresome, and has been pointed out several times is moderation on this topic.
You being one of the reasons, so you won't be getting the patience from me that Wibble showed you.
You should remember me backing up Sweden’s scientists and have a read of https://www.economist.com/graphic-detail/coronavirus-excess-deaths-tracker.
Should make you rethink, though I doubt it will.
The guy who thinks society is down the toilet calls me agressive, like it. As always, and likely with Covid, if everyone doesn’t agree with you, society is shite.
You don’t need to engage, plenty did and agree that society is clearly in a better place than ever and whilst still has a way to go is moving in the right direction.

Probably the wrong place to talk about this but I think that very much depends on what part of society you’re talking about. For example politically it’s been moving globally to the right. Not a great thing for society
Chants of "Greenwood, hes one of our own" at FT time in front of SJR....
It was spurs fans singing, “he’s one of your own”
