Amid ruminations on the recent dirty news blowing out of Old Trafford, fans and pundits wonder why Manchester United keeps farting out one story of sexual abuse, domestic violence, or immorality after the another.

After Mason Greenwood’s behaviour earned the club places in hundreds of headlines, who would have known it would not be the last one for the year? Now that one of the favourites at the club, in the person of Antony, serves an a subject of very distressing and disgusting accusations, Old Trafford has become known for one of the worst things a place can be known for.

Apart from these players, others have won attention for the club through serious societal missteps, abuse allegations and sexual escapades. Among these stands a player who went on to become a Greatest Of All Times. None other than Christiano Ronaldo.

There have been Anderson, Robin Van Persie, Wayne Rooney, Nani, and even two excos of Manchester United, whose bask in the web of immorality was made common knowledge.

A Manchester United coach, Tommy Docherty once eloped with a player’s wife. Her name was Mary Brown. Now if this took place in this era, journalists would roast the perpetrator into charcoal, but he did not receive enough punishment then.

It was revealed that she was a grandmother of more than ten people.

Alex Ferguson was the manager when Sir Robson made the following statement.
