I imagine United are in a very difficult position while Greenwood although clearly guilty of abusing someone hasn't actually been convicted of anything due to how the legal system works.

If United were to sack him he'd likely be able to sue and win.

If Greenwood did come out and admit everything, say he was wrong blah blah he'd then legally feck himself, contract wise, also conviction wise should his partner have a change of heart on the matter.

So basically whatever anyone wants to do, whether they want to try to make things a bit more palatable or in United's case act more firmly, they probably can't without risking unwanted consequences.

I'd be shocked and disappointed if the law sided with Greenwood on that. After bringing Utds reputation into disrepute, even if not found guilt in court theres no denying this happened. Potentially costing them millions in sponsorship deals etc. Imo Utd have more grounds for sacking him and suing him than he them.

I think sadly the law isn't always fair even in the most seemingly obvious of ways. Particularly when high wealth individuals and top lawyer's get involved (obviously United would have top lawyer's too but the law may be the problem)
