In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?
Seriously, if you are using your phone as a camera, the back of your hand is facing the subject?
Who the hell cares, shit this shit show down
It's very odd to see someone with the username Ronaldo's ego who has an issue with Ronaldo's ego. You need a disclaimer or something as your tagline.
Nobody that much but it happened and this is a discussion board.
Those who say the parents need to sue him as if he beat up the boy
Why?
Emotions run high. Like I said, complete non event. That hand next time might have a knife in it. I would have probably done the same.
Oh I'd totally sue him for a new phone at least. Thats only fair?
Even if it’s at that angle, seems the damage to the young lads hand is pretty severe for the angle Ronaldo slaps down at, but there’s no way to really know. Just a bit sceptical..
Wtf? An autistic child with a knife at football matches? Is that normal in England?...
My man if you can’t tell the difference between a phone and a knife then the streets must seem even more dangerous than they actually are
ffs
Highly muscular professional athlete strikes child and leaves bruise. Not that much of a stretch?
Yeah the autistic community are a real menace.
iPhone or Android is the real question here.
If it was a Blackberry he did the kid a favour.
If it was a Blackberry he did the kid a favour.
Or probably become an American cop..
Forget the Autistic element for a moment as it’s a red herring. How on earth is he supposed to know the kid is autistic? - this is all about the parents wanting a pay out….
You are right, the autism is irrelevant. You don't hit kids that aren't autistic either.
Imagine if Ronaldo broke your phone, then bought you a Samsung, what a cnut he’d be.
I thought April 9 was World Smash a Phone Out of IrritatingTeenage Spectator's Hand Day.
Give up, he didn’t hit nobody!! - Let’s see if he’s charged with assult. If he is then fair play to your initial opinion. Parents went to the newspaper, I wonder why that was!!! Ummmm let me see.

Kind of a weird thing to write when a police investigation is already open since 6 hours back with Manchester United co-operating with the police - its certainly not "a nothing incident". Its possible you have different kind of morals where you think this type of incident is OK, but obviously the police and club see things differently and probably the law as well.
Cristiano Ronaldo: Police investigate after Manchester United player appears to slap boy's phone out of his hand
"A spokesperson for Merseyside Police has now said: "We can confirm that we are liaising with Manchester United Football Club and Everton FC following reports of an alleged assault at the Everton v Manchester United football match at Goodison.
"As players were leaving the pitch at 2.30pm, it was reported that a boy was assaulted by one of the away team as they left the pitch."

And Manchester United has been investigating Ronaldo since 16 hours back:
Manchester United investigating Cristiano Ronaldo for swatting fan’s phone

100 this, yes it was stupid and I’ll bet he regrets it massively, what this guy does for charities, and pays for children’s operations and wishes no media exposure from himself is untrue. He has a winners mentality and yet still remains grounded, people need to give him a break FFS.
Did anyone ask Liam Payne what he thinks of it all?
That would definitely work
OK, He knocked the kids phone out of their hand, thats just not cool.
Which newspaper did they go to?
He was 14. That's not a child.
Thanks for adding that to my search history.
Both legally and developmentally you’re wrong.

Does not say if the papers approached the mom or the mom approached the paper of course.

The mental acrobatics you people will go to to defend your hero is actually quite endearing.
If she was trying to make money, going to a local paper probably wasn't the brightest idea!
To be fair I could ring the police now and say "Lightbringer from RedCafe has assaulted me and smash my phone" and they'd technically have to investigate it. I'm not saying this won't go anywhere but the statements are just saying they've had a report of it and are looking into it.
Well done, he’s thirteen.
Five match ban for Evra.
Five match ban for Evra.
It’s gas. He didn’t hit him. That’s not a child. We’re all living in a virtuality where all that matters is how awesome Ronaldo is.
I understand what you’re saying; I don’t think what he did paints him in a good light at all, I just think nothing will come of it save perhaps an apology, which he’s already kind of given. Might be wrong though.
Come on, don't you think you're blowing this out of proportion a bit? It was an act of petulance, nothing more. How can you possibly class it as assault?
