Re: CPS Drops Charges Against Mason Greenwood
Note, however, that a jury or a judge can NEVER find a defendant "innocent." Not guilty = / = innocent If you are found "not guilty" then you are innocent. You are innocent UNTIL you are proven guilty. Courts don’t test innocence, they test guilt. So if you receive a "not g...

Re: CPS Drops Charges Against Mason Greenwood
@Sleaky, as far as the okayness of Ched Evans playing football post-conviction is concerned, there is a noteworthy omission from your argument. Yes, Ched Evans is playing football again but one need only look at Sheff United’s attempt to re-sign him to learn of the challenges faced by the club in s...

Re: Bushboy won’t like these ladies
So what exactly is bushbaby’s problem? Is he just blind, or has he seen the light but his ego just won’t let him concede that he was wrong about Osimhen? Cos he can’t keep this denial up for ever. :rotf: :rotf: :rotf: Apart from a few notable exceptions have you ever known a Nigerian to admit they ...

Re: Benjamin Mendy (City) Arrested and Suspended
@coach, the latest figures I saw indicated that the rate of conviction for cases that end up in court has increased. But the chances of a charge ending up in court remain extremely small.

Re: Manchester United - News, Developments & Season
@Coach - it may not have been money. The difference in Greenwood's case was that the victim was his girlfriend (not a stranger). If his girlfriend refused to give evidence against him, then the case falls apart because there was no other witness to the alleged crime. I don't know whether payments f...

Re: Manchester United - News, Developments & Season
The only ways Man Utd could terminate Greenwood’s contract are: 1) Fire him outright: for what though? He was exonerated after a police investigation. If the club fires him for no reason, he could sue for unfair dismissal. The only slim chance the club has in this area is to fire him under the mora...

Re: Osimhen is a complete player that is the difference.
Forget about the stats, that isn't what the scouts are looking at. The most impressive thing is the dynamism. It is important because it means he can translate to many football systems. Scouts will look at stats, especially their data analytics units. They're just looking far beyond the goals/assis...

Re: Mourinho: ‘Osimhen like Drogba
That is why I detest the actions of Pinnick. He was so terrible for Nigeria football. Instead of supporting his own young striker, he was running overseas chasing anything foreign which included foreign Nigerian players( Abraham). I have never seen a man who claim to be wealthy and well travelled t...

Re: Osimhen to Man utd
There is really nothing special about United, Liverpool, Madrid etc. In fact if Football associations truly enforced financial fair play, these clubs would fall down the pecking order. They DO NOT truly enforce it. Italy funnily enough appears to be more corrupt, but in reality might just be the LE...

Klopp needs to play Elliot less. He doesn't affect games to the extent that he is played. For all his endeavors, he struggles to close out on defense and the positive he offers on offense is non existent now. He should be brought in in game Ms we are winning comfortably. To wet tempo and control ga...
