  1. I think you’re putting the cart before the horse and defending people who have not been accused yet. Why don’t we wait for the facts to come out before we start making excuses….

  2. Probz bullshit, all these girls that they get for these parties have the cash in mind. Remeber that girl a few years back that claim Sir Alex has sexual assualted her

    i dont think robin van persie was there, so it probably has nothing to do with the players…

    Chris Traverse –

    That remark was really uncalled for. What are you trying to say? RVP is the only player capable of such things? I’m not here throwing accusations at any Man Utd players. So why the fuck are you bringing outside players into this discussion?

    If this really happened, then its a shitty stituation that could do WITHOUT back & forth accusations between fans as to whose players are the most dastardly. I’m not making any moral/ethical judgements about this ‘party’ coz its not relevant to football & its none of my business.

    So until we know more then please, for the sake of us ALL, just have a nice cup of shut-the-fuck-up!

    Actually I read a report that the person that was accused of doing it was Johnny Evans…

    i hope its not true…but…

  7. Well said SpiralArchitect, RVP was never actually confirmed as a rapist, plus media over-exaggerates things because their footballer’s. Chances are, I could stand corrected though; The girl who was ‘raped’ could have agreed to it, maybe it was just that he kept going after a she said stop 30-second’s ago.

    But, as I said media do over-exaggerate matters like this.

    DId anyone think there WOULDN’T be a problem with this sex party thrown by the Mancs in some way?

    Well done Man U players. Keep it up. Catch them young. That seems to be the motto. From C Ronaldo to Anderson and from him to Johnny Evans…………..
    Who’s next, Fergie’s grandson?

    As for RVP, some female accused him of rape and he was held in jail for around 2 weeks. The police concluded their investigations and released him without any charges.

  11. CT, iqnadirshah, all you guys are doing is shaming your own ancestors with your petty bullshit.

    As for Jonny Evans, he was released on bail and United are still not commenting.

  12. Brian -

    No!!

  13. When you’re swimming with sharks, you’re bound to get your
    leg biten off..

    And Ronaldo wasn’t there. Lucky guy… [joke]

    i wish i was at the party. it sounded fun

    Dayum man! I wish i was there!!

  16. Does anyone find a problem with the fact the Jonny Evans has been named before being charged with anything? From now on this starlet’s reputation will be tarnished – innocent or guilty – and he will always be known as ‘controversial’ and a ‘playboy’ and be subjected to torrents of unnecessary abuse.

    The law needs amending. Either name both victim and accused or name none at all.

  17. Evans was apparently named by the woman’s boyfriend, so maybe they were making out and her guy caught them, and the woman lied about it? I’ve been a victim of this situation, so IMO it is possible :)

    His rep is tarnished but his background is spotless so far (and the praise heaped on him by Fergie, Keano et all stands for something).

    The law should be changed, yes, but more importantly I’m looking at where Evans will go in January – on loan to Sunderland, perhaps?

    Its good to see SAF coming down hard on his players (probably could have been sterner for their own good, but ah well…), especially in public.

    But i think he could have prevented the party from happening in the first place if he really thought things might get out of hand. So, how well does he know his players? Would he turn a blind eye to their antics as long as they performed well & stayed within the technical niceties of the legal system?

    I’m not taking a snipe at SAF or Man Utd, but i would like to know other people’s opinions about this…

  19. I think he thought that it would help recharge their batteries. However, if ‘recharging’ = ‘hurting United’s rep’, then you know Fergie will blow them out of the water regardless of the lead we have.

    Also, people are going to say that United slumped because of the party, although in reality they slumped because of poor tactics and team selection (and because Ronny missed that penalty).
