From what I understand Bahamas was added to quarantine list while he was there? Also Kane wasn't getting pissed up with the lads and hitting the local police while he was there?

I can’t see what he has done wrong.
I never said he done anything wrong?

At least he did not kill someone or laid his hands a on a women! It could have been worse.

I'm 38 and I still go to Ibiza, Portugal etc with my mates.

I also work 2 jobs and have a normal family life like most people.



Why stop doing things that you enjoy just because you hit 30?

It's good to still connect and socialise with other people.
Should have clarified it a bit more, obviously wasn't talking about going on holiday in general or anything.

Manchester Utd never lose, just run out of time
If it's as serious as it sounds there's a fair chance it's going to cost him the captaincy. Ole has already shown that he's happy to give it to quite a new player, so I'd be surprised if it ends up anywhere else than Bruno. However if it turns out it wasn't as bad as being made out then just a fine will do.

I don't really have a problem with him going abroad on holiday with who he chooses. He's an adult so is free to look into things and weigh up the risks as he sees fit. If the club had some sort of problem with it, they would have probably said something beforehand. (regarding travelling during a pandemic) He's played every minute this season and, with the world as it has been, could do with some time off to recharge. He's a human being.

Of course, (allegedly) hitting a police officer is not a sensible choice. He's got to take responsibility for that. Dunno what he was (or wasn't) thinking. It's a very unnecessary situation to be in.

Basically yes, this is a well known tactic.

obviously they’ve just realised theyve got harry maguire in the cell and are now trying to make it seem proper serious so they haven’t just arrested him for nothing.

they’ll drop the chargers after no further evidence was provided.
You don’t know jack about this case so stop acting like you do

Really doesn't matter what you think. I don't think any lawyer would use your speech here as a defence in court. You're not within your rights, that's just a fact that you don't need to try and argue against.
So you’d stand there and watch your friends getting beaten up for no reason just because the police felt like it :lol: great friend you are :lol:

Get Harry out of jail or buy Sancho ??? Can see Ed coming up with this as an excuse - cost of bribes etc...
That's a real Crystal Maze type decision. Do we give up a crystal to get a teammate out, or do we keep it for the dome?

We'll end up with Harry in jail and an eye-watering fee for Zaha or Grealish. :lol:

And neither do you. You’re only going off the press releases which will no wonder be sided with the police.

Perhaps some of us are fed up of painting a man as guilty until proven innocent?

Sorry, where are you getting this from that they were being assaulted by police? The police separated them & weren't even going to arrest them until they themselves were assaulted by the group. Also, are you actually a neanderthal? Just because you think you're in the right when doing something is not a legal defence.

YOU ARE NOW ABOUT TO WITNESS THE STRENGTH OF GREEK KNOWLEDGE...

feck the Greek Police coming straight from the Greek Med'
A young captain got it bad cuz I'm a Red...

And not the other colours so Police think - they have the authority to say that it's a penalty...

feck that shit cuz ain't the one - for a Greek Motherfecker with a badge and a gun - to be beatin' on, and thrown in jail
Ed Woodward will bail me out and claim he made another sale

feckin' with me cuz I'm a rich Manc red - with a little bit o' gold and a slab-head
Searchin my club, lookin' for the product - claimin' Rio Ferdinand was doin' narcotics...

You'd rather see, me give a pen
Than me and J-Linzo rollin' in the Benzo

Greek Police are out of shape - like Romelu was - bring the physio tape, to tape off the scene of the corner - Martial can't score from them unlike Werner

I don't know if they ABUs or what... search a slab-head down and grabbin' his nuts

But on the other hand, without a pen we can't score none...

But don't let it be a Blue and Red one - cuz they'll slam you down to soft pitch - Greek Police showin' out for the Pep Cops

Slab-head will swaaaaaarm - on any Motherfecker in a blue uniform

Just cuz I play for the U-T-D...

Greek Police are afraid of me!

Huh, a young captain on a Holiday - and when I'm finished, Ed's gonna give a pay day - of bail money to the Greek P.D

Yo, de Gea I got somthin' to say!
sensational :lol:

I wrote the OP on the hipster CB’s vs Maguire thread - you won’t find a stronger supporter of his than me.

but in this instance the police side of events sounds much more likely than any xenophobic and totally unsubstantiated allegations against Greek police.

I mean there is no-one at all peddling your version of events. None. but yeah - you know the truth.

Oh yeah that sounds so likely!

so they’d finished fighting 1 group and then hadn’t had enough, so decided to beat up the police too. Hahahah.

they obviously rolled into town, found who they thought were the culprits and arrested them. No doubt heavy handedly.

perhaps they resisted? Maybe. This is all conjecture.

all I know is maguire isn’t an aggressive thug and these allegations don’t sound anything like him. I am certain these charges will get dropped and you’ll all sound very stupid.

This distraction, with a shortened pre-season, was the last thing United needed. SanchOFF sadly.

Crikey. Some people live very different lives to me. I go away with the lads at least once a year. It’s not a lads lads lads type affair but still, it’s definitely not ended when we were nearing 30 and I hope it doesn’t when we’re nearing 40.
I’m 63 on Monday and should have been on a lads (ages ranging from mid-20s upwards) trip to Spain had it not been canned thanks to these wretched quarantine rules. We’re all cathedral musicians though, and therefore have no problems holding our drink :)

The ONLY version of events is the police side. Have we had a statement from maguire or independent witnesses? No.

of course they’re going to paint it like a serious incident, they can’t go arresting a famous figure for no reason.

You can buy your way out of anything on small Greek islands, hopefully he has his cheque book with him.

Nonsense, it's exactly what we needed to take the heat of Woodward and Judge to allow them to get the Sancho transfer done with minimal media interference. Harry being a good captain here.
