Do you think this new evidence has anything to do with the withdrawal of the victim as a witness, which coincidentally occurred after Greenwood broke his bail conditions repeatedly to contact her?

I have no clue what this new evidence is because neither am I a god nor am i a lawyer.

Do you know what this new evidence is or how it came to fruition?

I don't know the full story and for that reason alone I'm more fine with Greenwood.

C Ronaldo arrived here after being acused of rape - but why was that okay? Because the fanbase had no evidence so then gave no judgement. The same thing happened with Antony, he is okay here until either there is evidence or the law interfere. It's all dependent on evidence and how much of it is there.

With Greenwood many have decided that there is is enough evidence so have made their mind up about over him even when there is reported new evidence that no one has a clue about.

Who knows, maybe this new evidence shows that Greenwood is worse than he was shown to be through recordings. maybe its the opposite. No one has a clue except the courts, the law and the god themselves and so far Greenwood has come out with it still playing football in spain hitting goalposts but not behind bars.

But you do know what breaking bail to see the person you're being charged with sexually and physically assaulting means, yes? You understand why that no contact order was put in place and the dangers that order is put in place to avoid? You also understand what those dangers coming to pass could look like?

You cannot just wave that away.

It wasn't okay. This is also a fallacious argument.

Personally for me, I dont really regard football or my club as a reflection of me, my personality or my ideologies.

I regard football ultimately as a sport and sport being an Entertainment. Manchester United is just the club I enjoy which provides me that Entertainment.

On a purely footballing level, I'd be lying to alot if i pretended that Greenwood doesn't provide me an excitement or an entertaintment.

Greenwood, Martial & Rashford arguably took us to the top 2 with a very below average midfield & some would argue a below average defense. That has changed now whilst we have added in youngsters like Garnacho, Mainoo, Hojlund, Amad and more around the corner. To me that's an attack that would scare the whole of the world whilst also putting players like Rashford on the bench if he doesn't perform or give enough of a work rate because we simply would have the quality as an attacking outlet in this club.

Cantona abused a complete randomer by kicking someone on the chest and is still regarded as one of the most important players of the club and is talked about highly like he never did anything wrong. It's literally there on youtube for anyone to see it but many people dont talk about Cantona in a bad way for his actions. Even players like C Ronaldo is regarded as complete legend of the sport, never mind the club whilst arguably accused of doing the same bad things that Greenwood's done probably at a time when Social Media wasnt as present as it is today to a complete randomer of the opposite sex, never mind their own partner.

To me, I'm in no position to judge a person because simply I am not a God and neither am I a lawyer to judge someone's actions and their outcomes. If he has been forgiven for his mistakes by his partner, his partners family and has also left the criminal case with a clean hand all except for a dirty recording - then i'm not ashamed to say that I want Greenwood back because of the enjoyment he would give me as a footballer.

I just honestly think that some people feel like they are better people of the higher caste for not wanting Greenwood 'the scum' back because it actually makes them feel like better people with the higher mindset or you know the more 'pure people' - the people who would kill all the thieves of the world so that only angels in this world are left type of mindset because i guess some people can only see the world through their eyes and not through the eyes of others.

Again, his partner has forgiven him, so has the partners family and arguably the law itself has 'forgiven him' - but ultimately some fans just cant do it. It's just too hard, because once someone turns dirty - they are just not good enough for the people with this ultimate 'purity'.

Anyway, let me know what you think about Cantona Kicking a total randomer and going to court for abusing this man.

Then look at how SAF speaks of this abuser in 1997 on youtube. Crazy stuff that he is talked so highly, even as a massiah on another interview by someone as high as SAF.

If SAF can look at an abuser so highly at this football club then I think maybe I can give another one a chance too if they have managed to come out clean through law and justice.

What’s Cantona got to do with the greenwood situation? Nothing. Zero. Not equivalent at all.

he also went through the justice system and took his punishment.

but all of that has got feck all to do with greenwood

Otherwise your just a human being whose heard a quarter of the story and has made the result in your head.

This has been written on the news:

The case was dropped Feb 2023 after the victim dropped the allegation and there was new evidence.

Now I say I dont know this evidence because I am not a god or neither a lawyer - so i am not in the mindset to judge a persons actions or outcomes because I dont know the full story and I know only quarter of it.

For you, that quarter of evidence is perfectly fine because now he is completely dirty and not good enough for a pure person like you.

Anyway, I should stop posting here as i am a newbie and dont want to ruin my friendship over something like this. :)

Sorry? Cantona attacked a racist spectator and paid the penalty for that so we should ignore what Greenwood did? That is a ludicrous idea.

Which other parts are those? The impregnation? Well the baby might not be his but... he seems to think it is.

Or the lack of admission of guilt? Well it's impossible to prove a negative, but if you take even a cursory glance you'll see it's true. As for the explanation of why his girlfriend was recording, again, have a look, he hasn't.

It’s tricky keeping up with what’s woke these days. Now it seems that ‘not wanting to listen to attempted rape audio’ is woke.

No offence, but it's not our job to educate or inform you - that's on you. This thread is 350+ pages, you can't just come in and ask the same questions that have been asked by so many different posters and answered by both sides. Maybe do some research yourself and present a conclusion based on that? It's not a discussion if you expect the person you're talking to to tell you all the context.

You keep saying this without specifically referencing which crimes you think I've left out. At this point it feels like bad faith. I can't give you answers when you're intentionally evasive about what you're referring to.

Which is unsubstantiated and a logical leap that would not pass any legal tests. That is to say it's an inference that may seem reasonable but is not in any way a proven fact.

fecking newbies in this thread. Maybe we should have threadmarks to the most informative posts on here, let them catch up with the answers to the "questions" before posting. It's an extremely long thread, so I'm not blaming them persay, it's just sad that many come here uninformed and then mess up their relationships on here.

To that note:

Mate, I'm a survivor and I definitely don't feel pure, but the idea of supporting that man, after hearing what I heard is impossible

No one can forgive someone unless 1. there's something to forgive and 2. they admit their guilt.

Anyway, let me know what you think about Cantona Kicking a total randomer and going to court for abusing this man.

Owned up to it, took his punishment, never did it again. Not to mention it was in response to xenophobic abuse

Then look at how SAF speaks of this abuser in 1997 on youtube. Crazy stuff that he is talked so highly, even as a massiah on another interview by someone as high as SAF.

Listen to the audio again and watch the highlights of that Crystal Palace match and determine if you can see if there is any equivalence

I doubt it, since he said crimes.

And it wouldn't meet the standard of proof in a criminal case, but it would almost certainly meet the standard in a civil suit against him. He was charged for coercive and controlling behaviour and then broke bail conditions to contact the victim who promptly withdrew her statement. It's not just a reasonable inference, it's by far the most likely scenario.

That was before he broke bail conditions, I also never mentioned that in my post. That's just evidence which makes the other thing you quoted more unarguable.

It's currently not provable. Most likely scenario is just another way of saying reasonable inference. Since we are discussing criminal charges the reference to civil standards is a red herring.

And yet with all this iron clad evidence (which I agree is extremely solid evidence) the Crown did not pursue the charges. So I'm perplexed as to why their case could not proceed. I don't think it's as simple as she would not cooperate because there are mechanisms that can be leveraged there.

So I take the CPS statement at face value and interpret 'new evidence that came to light' as something that introduced reasonable doubt to one or two of the charges. It would be good to know everything so we could come to a sound conclusion but unfortunately that's unlikely to happen.

Prosecuting a rape case with a hostile witness is never going to work. The CPS don't determine guilt, just if they can put an adequate case forward, which they can't if the witness is coerced. That's why the no contact order was in place.

It's also one, not plural.

United also aren't a court, their level of proof is lower.

It was specifically mentioned by the police when they dropped the case, on top of the withdrawal, but lots of people infer that this is just a way to say that the victim withdrawal was the new evidence. I find that way of thinking strange, I think if the victim's withdrawal was the only element, they would not mention that new evidence part.

United also mentioned that so we don't know if they somehow had access to something new but we're assuming they did.

I agree with that when there is a scant amount of evidence (i.e. he said, she said) but in this case there is audio of the crime itself occurring, data that can show where, when and what device it was recorded on, etc. The witness being hostile can be used to enhance that evidence, especially with the added coercive behaviour charge.

It just doesn't happen, if the witness gets up and says it was all roleplay and the injuries were accidental the court case is over there and then. Reasonable doubt unless she's charged with lying under oath, and the CPS aren't going to charge a rape victim with that after the GMP failed to enforce bail. It's also considered if it's in the victims interests to continue without them as a witness.

Guidance:
If a rape specialist prosecutor has considered whether it is possible to proceed without the complainant, and decided that it is but that it would not be right to do so in the particular circumstances, the case will be discontinued. These cases will be rare and should be marked as discontinued in the public interest.

Greenwood case:
A decision has been made to discontinue prosecution in accordance with the Code for Crown Prosecutors.

If so then I think that's a flaw in this instance and it deserves an inquest. The posting of the audio and photos on social media, the statement given to police all suggest there's a winnable case there even without a cooperative witness.

So, like I said it would be great if we could know the details behind the decision to not pursue the case. Probably not going to happen, but we'll see I guess.

As I said, it's not a lack of evidence. When the case is discontinued it's because the CPS have decided they can but shouldn't prosecute the case. This is usually a victim wellbeing issue.

So, like I said it would be great if we could know the details behind the decision to not pursue the case. Probably not going to happen, but we'll see I guess.

999 times out of a 1,000… key witness(es) refuse to play ball or testify means won’t go to court.

Defence just say things have changed and they have no ability to refute evidence, ask key witnesses questions, etc. Almost impossible to get a guilty verdict in that situation

I'm glad you remember! fecked if I can. Just as well you didn't make that comment in Scotland though, definitely a hate crime.

Anyways, I'm pretty sure my thought was perfectly reasonable. The guy was suggesting the club run the women's team like Putin runs Russian politics. Bat shit.

Although it should not be a prerequisite to how the club ultimately handles the potential sale of Greenwood, having some success on the pitch and seeing young players like Garnacho, Mainoo and Hojlund flourish will at the very least quiet any arguments that we’re losing a highly rated academy player. This is how the sale will inevitably be viewed by some even though I understand it’s greater than football.
