Let's wait and see before rushing to judgement.

Could be completely baseless for all we know.

Think this should be closed until he’s charged.

Accusations can be made very easily, let’s wait and hear more information.

Assuming there is some truth to the reports, I hope he resigns.

Domestic violence should be totally unacceptable for a top level professional club like United.

Bloody hell, what next?

Sir Alex caught in a Barcelona strip club with cocaine?

Sir Bobby arrested for drop kicking Messi?

Only thing I read she had a small cut to her hand that didn't require hospital treatment and it was suspicion of assault? What reports have you seen?

Will wait to hear about some concrete facts about the case.

But if theres something to this then he should be gone.

Whats next Ashley Young being found guilty of playing well.

Seriously though this is not good, his association with the club could be over if true.

If he has been charged it sounds like there is something to it.

I know that he is definitely a bit of a 'lad'. Whether that extends to wife beating though...

As if this night was not bad enough already, if he really assaulted a woman I hope he’s never allowed close to the club again
Interesting.
So you are saying that assaulting a man is fine, but assaulting a woman is not acceptable?

No wonder the marriage didn't last. She was one letter away from being called Smelley Butt

A chap I knew was in the paper for this "assault by beating" charge, and It was a wow moment as you have visions of someone being beaten to a pulp.

But this charge can cover "pushing" and "grabbing", which still not exactly ideal, aren't what the charge sounds.


Let's see if he's actually guilty as well!
