Radcliffe seems like a charmer
'It just doesn’t seem like the club care about women and girls,' campaigners say as Greenwood joins Marseille

Manchester United’s sale of
Mason Greenwood to Marseille in a £30m deal has been branded “disturbing” and indicative of a “problem with sexual violence in football” by leading domestic abuse campaigners.
“It seems to be a phase of the vision of what’s happening at Man Utd anyway. It’s a disturbing insight into the culture at Man Utd and how they are treating women, pushing them quite literally to the side and the periphery of the club. He [Sir Jim Ratcliffe] cares about success on the pitch for the men’s team but the
women won a major trophy [the FA Cup] and he wasn’t even there.”
Since acquiring a 25 per cent stake in the club, minority shareholders
Ineos have been widely criticised for their handling of United’s women’s team. In a recent interview, Ratcliffe reiterated that his focus was on the “first team” – referring to the men’s team – and the women’s team have recently been moved into portable cabins at their Carrington training ground to allow the men’s squad to use their building."
