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

Just in case anyone missed it. I don't like Mount.

Domestic violence can cover a number of things so lets wait and see

The law is pretty lax on reasons for arrest. Could be something meaningless

Headline should be changed to "Former Newcastle midfielder arrested for an alleged domestic incident"

What difference does it make?
None, but according to OP that was the allegedly happened. What I said applies also if he assaulted a man, although speaking personally, I find violence against women slightly more disgusting.

We do love to hate our own lot don’t we, guilty until proven innocent
How?

Giggs is a scumbag off the pitch for what he did to his family. If Butt is guilty of assasulting a women then he deserves hate.

As for Scholes he’s barely done anything, so don’t get why any hate for him.

Hence my point about guilty until proven innocent (when you read this forum).

Depends on the circumstances. And the woman!

Personally I don't hate Scholes - but I change channel every time he is on TV. He just seems like a bitter man.

Are we really conflating gambling with assault?
Just highlighting that with the previous squeaky clean imagine of Co92 being the wholesome face of football has taken a big dent...

Not saying each issue is equally bad. But as a brand (which is what they have desperately pushed at every chance) it should be put to bed.

As for Butt, Specifically, if guilty not only wouls United part ways but surely he's be under pressure to step away from Salford City too?
