Yeh I agree with this, I think he could end up being a liability to the team with all this going on. It's probably why he's had a bad start to the season too, he knew this was coming and had it on his mind.
Wow. Ok we need to really do background checks. If true, this is the end for him at United. What does that translate to though? Desktop searches or maybe ruling out signing players from slums or other dodgy neighbourhoods?
Guess we’ll have to wait till redcucumber decides there’s enough women coming forward before we can suggest anything. Double figures get you thinking there might actually be something up?This thread (forum?) is chock-a-block with shitty arse hot takes.
There was a police report 3 months before we signed him tbf, probably should have known about that
Greenwood was suspended the same day the audio was released and before he was arrested. I think he was then arrested a few hours later.
Funny that you say this because I thought that he’s been looking better than he did for large parts of last season
Yeah. Everybody knows, dodgy neighbourhood = women abuser, right?
Nah. It's just a pitchfork mob.
Jesus christ
I was being sarcastic. But re-reading my post that was overboard and I sincerely apologise. I guess the question I have is how can you do a background check on footballers to avoid Greenwood and Antony situations happening again? The information avaliable is so hard to come by if not on record.

Yeah, absolutely. But I'm not sure how this could have been known prior to the signing cause the cases are appearing now, women coming out.
Wasnt aware of that, thanks.
Apologies for my post above Santos which was meant to be sarcastic. I guess the club better make sure their checks include law enforcement checks, if available. But it should be a global check and not just the country of nationality right?
Yeah you'd definitely think so, if there was no reports or anything prior then I can see why the club wouldn't have known but considering there was a police report there's surely no excuse for them not knowing about it
Do you believe that?
No. Of course not. But just portraying the mood from some posters here.
The short answer is there literally isn’t any way to check on this until something happens. Greenwood wasn’t even a signing, he’s been here his whole life and this only came to light when the story broke.
Yeah it’s scary. Think I’ll avoid this thread. Can’t be bothered making the same arguments in support of women as I made in the MG one. Save myself some stress.
We would have never signed Rooney then!
Popped in here and some of the posts are.. As you say scary.. So I'll do the same thing as you and avoid it not to get sick from some of the comments.
I’ve already accepted he’ll be innocent and return to action next week.
Innocent until proven guilty is about going to prison or not. It is not about being suspended from the team. For example, Sancho is out of the team and he is not accused by anyone of beating them up and of course, he is not going to prison.
It will become evidence if it’s presented in court, tested and accepted.
I agree. If he’s guilty it’s the best thing to do. If he’s innocent it’s also the best thing to do. So it’s the only thing to do. Give him time off. If he gets charged then turn it into a suspension
Like it or not, being suspended by the club is seen on social media as a declaration of guilt. Women know it only needs an accusation to destroy a man’s career and life - and make money in the process. I’m not saying that’s the case here, but it has happened before.
Pray tell how far worse actual charges have affected Partey?
People have feigned their own deaths too. But it’s so uncommon that that’s not the first thought when someone dies. I think I recall one player who was the victim of a blackmail plot involving a girl who turned out to be underage. At the heart of that was a gang of predominantly men.
The sad thing is, if these are women looking for attention or revenge more will come forward.
Nice post this. Do you happen to post on Twitter too?
That's definitely the most likely case here, 3 separate women lodged complaints spanning over a year, they must have met up online and decided to do it together!
Away with your reasonable questions.
Happened to Mendy did it not?
Did you forget to read the last sentence of my post? It wasn’t a long post, it only had 3 sentences. Just for clarity, I’ll repeat it.
