"Trigger warning for r*pe, domestic violence and abuse.
This submission has been flagged as relating to Mason Greenwood. We wish to provide the following clarity on a highly sensitive situation.
Greenwood in 2022 was accused of sexual and physical assault and assault by his then-girlfriend. She posted images on social media of the physical after-effects, and an audio clip of one of the several incidents she reported.
The transcript of this can be seen here. We believe it is important for any person discussing Greenwood's case to be aware of this.
Greenwood was subsequently charged with attempted r*pe, actual bodily harm, and engaging in controlling and coercive behaviour . He was suspended by his club, Manchester United.
He was subsequently charged with breaching the conditions of his bail by contacting Harriet, on multiple occasions. They are now married, and have recently had their first baby together.
The case subsequently collapsed in February 2023, as Harriet withdrew herself as a witness.
Mason Greenwood was not cleared of the charges, as such.
The evidence of what occurred is publicly available. We ask that you familiarise yourself with the details of this case as outlined above, when discussing this topic."

After the incident, some journo from The Athletic got info on how United wanted to reintegrate Greenwood into the team.
Obviously, other journos, social support organizations and social media sneeded so hard that United eventually backed off.
Chadnited's board is so drama piled, that news leaked that they had a list of hostile figures, including the formerly mentioned support groups.
Obviously there's a bunch of social media seethe about this crap, so look for them for reaction if you want.
This transfer is also funny because Getafe is a spanish first division shit club that plays an aggressively time wasting style that makes football even duller than usual , so /r/soccer is already predisposed to dislike the team and this will act as a sneed multiplier
Anyway, the event is already kinda funny on its own, but lets check some comments.
Reactions
So when Man U said it has therefore been mutually agreed that it would be most appropriate for him to do so away from Old Trafford that meant LOANING HIM OUT, not terminating the contract?! Frick me.
We're in Year+8 and these people still believe big clubs are something different from companies managing assets and think United will throw away a 70M Yuros player.
Is there a point where it becomes socially acceptable to stop supporting a club?
It's ingrained in us to pick a team and stick to it, but this club is a joke.
The Manifest Destiny of the poor sexy Indian dudes that can't avoid the path biology set for them: support a top 6 Bong Team.
Why do they keep using this language as if he's a poor bastard in a tough spot? Bizarre stuff
If you had no prior knowledge of the situation you'd honestly think he was the victim in all this with the language they use.
Whatever about the language used, at least United haven't printed and worn supportive t-shirts in solidarity with the prick.
Lmao, this guy went there Loserpool fans GTFO
Also some from /r/reddevils
Nice, bye and hopefully never come back.
I wonder how people's opinions would change of he started scoring 30 or 40 goals a season. Would all be forgiven?
Knowing football fans: Yes. Yes it would.
Getafe Twitter account are promoting it, seem quite non-chalant about it. I thought it was gonna be a little bit more quiet.
Getafe are the most disliked club in Spain one of the only things that Barca and Madrid fans get along with also Bordalás parks the bus 90% of the time and then you have the Spain federation drama it's a mess
If there is one thing Dramatards should take from this thread, it's that Getafe are the most Dramapilled team in Spain and we should all support it.
If you ever go to Madrid (HIGHLY UNRECOMMENDED), make sure to buy one of their jerseys and support the team financially!
Anyway, It's late and I don't have time to put links up for comments. I'm out
