Not necessarily, because they'll leak revenue from the foreign broadcasting contracts and the sponsorship contracts, should they fail to meet the on-pitch performance benchmarks (like CL) in the contracts. There's also the problem of how much, and how quickly, they take a financial hit from kit sales/matchday. The timing is suspicious in the sense that I would bet a large chunk of their kit sale revenue happens in July and early August. They're also selling a lot of kit overseas in places where this story might appear on the front page for a day, then vanish.

Long run, you're probably right that the PR hit will do more damage to future sponsorship contracts than they save now, but they're not in a position to think long-term. They're losing $100M a year, and have a decaying stadium they'll have to do something about sooner rather than later.
I suppose the "easiest" solution is to loan him out to a country that wont care.
 

A scumbag of the highest order.

Completely predictable though in football. Ched Evans, Mendy, Robinho, Santi Mina Without even getting into the allegedlys. Biggest surprise is our former player didn't get a new club.
 
Imagine crowd reactions up and down the country. This case breaks new ground because of those videos shared via social media. Such serious information has never been in so many hands unsolicited before. There have been very recent occasions of bad behaviour and worse at grounds, will security be boosted everywhere this toe rag turns up? And who foots the bill.
 


There's no way he comes back as a Premier League player. If United bring him back into the fold, he'll be harassed and abused at every single stadium he plays in, there will constantly be the same questions asked about him, and if he rapes another woman in the future the decision to allow him to play on will really come back to hurt United.
 
Oh ... has social media ruled him guilty then? I had believed that the legal case didn't progress ... meaning he hasn't actually been found guilty of the allegation. That's how things work isn't it?

Can't say I've been following it mind. What I can't change I show little interest in as I grow older.

Could you be any more absolutely in your 50's
