Nothing has been fixed or resolved or made good by United’s decision to move Greenwood on

nd so we all get to move on now; or at least to shift our gaze elsewhere. If there is any sense of closure or catharsis to be found in the news thatwill not be re-engaging Mason Greenwood as a first-team player, it is to be hoped that these qualities are reserved for Greenwood’s initial, presumed, now-withdrawn – phrase it however you want – accuser; and in his own eventual passage through life from here.

It is technically incorrect to state, as Greenwood does, that he has been cleared of all accusations. Those accusations were never tested in court. Instead they were withdrawn when a key witness refused to give evidence. People will of course draw their own conclusions on this, as indeed seemed to be the initial purpose of releasing, unbidden, that deeply shocking content into the public sphere.

The second point is one that should be stapled to the top of every football-centred story on this topic while we can still offer it all this borrowed light. Regardless of Greenwood’s state of innocence the crimes he was accused of are grievously underexamined by the wider UK justice system.
