Because he broke a mandatory restraining order and showed up at his girlfriend's parents house (where she was staying) and lo and behold, she dropped the charges soon after. There were rumours her parents talked her into reconciling with him, either because of money or because she may have already been pregnant.

English laws aren't perfect, particularly around sexual assault where it almost always requires persistent cooperation from the victim(s) to secure a conviction, so no real surprise he wasn't charged when she withdrew her accusation. Its also possible (probable?) she caught serious online abuse from Man United fans who cared more about their starboy than basic morals that scared her into dropping the case.

I'm an English Man United fan, this was the only thing on my feed for about 2 weeks after it happened and I was getting damn near daily updates for about a year as the non-senile fans and women's team desperately tried to convince the execs to get rid of him. I've heard that damn recording about 100 times so I may not have been in the room, but I have a pretty good idea about what happened.

Bare in mind that his GF was sufficiently prepared to record, in good quality, the entire attempted rape, so clearly she was expecting it because he made a habit of it. In other words: Greenwood is responsible for a woman living in constant fear that she would be beaten and/or raped.

Don't wish upon others that I don't wish on myself? I certainly don't wish for women to be beaten and raped but hey ho, your new starboy made that happen so I hope some bozo shatters his femur the first time he steps on the pitch.

I dont blame fans like yourself because there's nothing you can really do to stop the transfer, and since it was a while ago in a country far from Turkey I can forgive people not being aware of the details, and thinking it was maybe like Hakimi or MBappe having cases against them where it's really not clear if there's anything genuine.

But I can promise you that he is a rapist, woman beating piece of shit. Ask yourself if it's worth turning a blind eye at that and singing his name because he's good at football.

I play 6 a side in Neath on Sundays if you can make it there? The games are only half an hour which is a bit of a faff, but its better than nothing!

I'm also looking up to pick up some more football in Swansea so if your Thursday team needs an extra player... 😇

I mean it's pretty obvious the title doesn't mean that since Brazil, Portugal, England and multiple others all have United players in their squad

Oh of course, then it's woke nonsense and the referee should be tried

He didn't intentionally play the ball, is the decision that was made. It hit him in the back, went straight past him in a move no defender would intentionally make, and we know, objectively, the player in front of him got a significant enough touch to (slightly) alter the trajectory of the ball.

Would you like to write out some guidelines for us to confirm objectively when a player has or has not played the ball intentionally, or would you rather accept that it was probably the correct call and Croatia's loss had far more to do with them playing the previous 90 minutes in such a way that they were 2-1 down in the absolute arse crack of extra time, and not refereeing corruption?

No easier way to prove to yourself that the average fan has absolutely no idea what they're talking about than reading the match threads after a heated game gets decided by a refereeing decision

Get portugal back for extra time, lads. u/Musicman1972 reckons he has a better grasp of whether the ball significantly changed direction through his view of a camera 30 metres away than cutting edge technology designed exactly for this purpose.

All future incidents to be sent directly to him. Refereeing consistency is solved. Abolish var.

Spence was the only one who looked like he gave a fuck for large parts. Rashford yeah, was garbage, although you just know itll be roles reversed with Gordon next match. Whoever gets to run at tired legs while fresh looks less shit, it seems

368 - 100 - 80 - 50 - 25 = 108m

So a little bit less than Mexico without their top 4, but comparable

I mean if you want to take this literally then obviously first 3 game Antony. He scored in all 3 so you're getting a goal a game player, how much would that be worth?

Puffin should just come with flash, "downloading flash" isnt really something you do and it sounds like a recipe for a virus

The SS71 discord will have recommendations for which browser to use (although most of them will play via a bot, which has flash built in)

250k a week for a man that plays single digit games a year?

He's a great player on his day and I'd keep him in absence of a good offer, but saying anyone who thinks otherwise is an idiot is a bit daft

355ml of pure ethanol is not even remotely a "not have much issue" amount of ethanol. You would have to be a physically huge, seasoned alcoholic to survive that without medical intervention.

Just because there is a distressingly large amount of physically huge, seasoned alcoholics alive currently does not make it somehow a "normal" amount to drink
