I think a factor on this is that in the social media age the pictures/voice notes circulating at the time of the allegation mean that this one will follow him around a lot longer than, for example, news reports or newspaper articles at the time that fade from memory. His girlfriend is still with him, and putting that together with the extremely disturbing statement of her father at the time of the allegations last year gives a fair idea of why this case fell apart. It certainly doesn't in any way prove that he is innocent. I hope United never let him near the training ground again.

Wouldn't surprise me to see him teaming up with Ronaldo out in the middle East. No way he'll play in the Premier league again I reckon.

Important 3 points! Casemiro will be a massive miss the next three games, Martinez was brilliant at the back again.
Thought the referee was very poor, got so many decisions wrong.

Martinez is absolutely fantastic. With Dalot, I have a lot of faith in the back 5. As for Casemiro, he and Hughes embrace immediately after the incident inngood humour. I think the angle and the fact Casemiro was standing on higher ground made it look worse. He'll be a big miss.

Jordan Ayew done the exact same thing to Fred! Zero consistency.

Was over in OT yesterday. Thought our starting back 4 were very good. Fred never stopped running either, some work when Casimero went off. As mentioned above, martinez is class. Knows when to stand up and when to go to ground, excellent at bringing the ball out. What a signing. Thought it would be a comfortable afternoon after the early goal, but UTD had to work for the 3 points, and it felt like a big result at the end.

Wonder will the fans be protesting like they were the super league if that was to happen?

You'd imagine there would be some but hard to know how many. Newcastle fans don't seem to give a toss at all about their owners so you'd imagine there would be a similar portion of any large group that would feel the same.

My biggest complaint with Newcastle fans is that they had a history of protest. I found it hilarious how they just shrugged their shoulders and claimed helplessness about what happens in the boardroom and on the commercial front. I suspect if the current owners decided to sell, and Ashley was to return with an offer, they’d be running out to Wilko to buy all the poster board and paint they could find, and setting up groups to oppose the deal. Somehow, they’d be much less helpless in that situation.

Actually listened to a podcast on this last night as it happens. It seems the feeling at the moment is that Ashley was so bad that anybody else is viewed as better so people just chose to ignore the questionable people in the background. They also made the point on the podcast that Amanda Staveley is the public face of this new ownership group even though she only owns 10% and this helps with the "Out of sight, out of mind" attitude to the rest of the owners.

I think that sounds like it is worth a listen. I would probably accept that they wanted ‘ABA’ but they rolled out the red carpet for the new owners, and that was simply to do with the potentials the money brought. I’ve always felt since the change in ownership that Newcastle are fans of a ‘business’ as they accept that what happens in the boardroom is beyond their remit. They are paying customers, and should accept anything the business does, without question, as they have agreed that they can influence nothing. It’s almost laughable when you hear them refer to the ‘club.’

The Podcast was actually a Liverpool one (The Anfield Wrap) but they were talking to 2 people from the "True Faith" Newcastle about state ownership given that LFC are for sale (or partly for sale)

I'm still surprised the Saudis didn't push hard for Man United. Fair enough it would cost £5B minimum rather than £300m but not like they're short a few quid. And a debt free United wouldn't need the Saudis to pump oil money into the playing side and could have just improved the facilities. Give it time and the big clubs in England will become play things for Middle Eastern groups. |

Surely any gulf state would be very wary of trying to take over Man United after the disgruntlement towards the Glazers? I've always assumed these would be owners did their homework and picked clubs where the fans would be like sheep and wouldn't give a sh*t as long as there was the merest hint of success.
Liverpool and Man United fans should hold a join protest before their next league match warning off would be takeovers from sports washing regimes. It would be a good two fingers to Man City in the process a win-win all round.
