MUFC Handled The Greenwood Investigation Poorly – Gary Neville

Manchester United legend, Gary Neville has come out to condemn the club’s investigation into Mason Greenwood. He recently revealed that the process has been horrible, and fans have been reacting.

According to him, even if it was clear he wouldn’t play for Manchester United again after the evidence that was shared by the alleged victim, how long it took to arrive at the decision to let him go was terrible.

Neville added that it has been obvious for a while that MUFC do not have the skill and the ability to deal with certain situations.

His words, “Yes they have, they finally got there. I think it was clear from day one for me and for anybody who saw that evidence that was initially released, that he wouldn’t play for Manchester United again. So they have got there, however I would say that the process in getting there, I think, has been pretty horrible.”

“Manchester United, when you have significant situations and difficult situations like this, it requires strong and authoritative leadership. That comes from the very top and Manchester United don’t have that.”

“On an issue like domestic abuse, and violence against women, it brings me to a third point that there needs to be independence. It shouldn’t be that Manchester United are the judge and jury on such a significant issue, not just for themselves but also for the game.”

“People talk about the reputation of Manchester United but it’s the Premier League here as well, and my view is that on issues of this importance and severity, they should be dealt with independently by a panel, because it’s been clear that Manchester United have not had the skill and the ability to deal with this situation properly. It’s been well above their grade in terms of experience and ability.”
