In what part of any evidence was it made clear that he 'repeatedly' tried to bribe officials? Corrupt 
Banged up abroad new season is going to be great!
Exactly. Think he is not entirely innocent, but there are other culprits in this who have got away with it.
shirts with his big slab head being printed up as we speak.
Learnt from Woodward!
He will get a slap on the wrist, a fine and community service.
Some of yous haven't been out on the lash much
Do you regularly assault people and use your position within your job to try and bribe police officers? Whilst he won’t be sacked from his job he should be stripped of the captaincy.
Having lived in the northern quarter of Manchester City Centre for the last 11 years, yes I have been out plenty. This is not a regular thing at all. Stop normalising violence. Perhaps if you wait for closing time at the moon under water, or the Piccadilly tavern, there’d be the odd scuffle. But still highly unlikely.
Attempted bribery. Now honestly what is that? Can you win a Nobel Prize for attempted chemistry?
Just when I thought a match Day thread was the worse this place could come up with.
Then this thread comes along, FFS some post in here are shocking, sell him sack him !!

Suspended sentence incoming.
Found guilty, as he was bound to be. Pay the fine & move on.
Yeah. Our police would have got a blood test done on Daisy, not this lot it appears.
This is fecked up. The Greek authorities better know what they are doing considering that Mykonos is a current hip destination for the rich and famous.
So it's a British thing then, OK. I think in most countries on the continent getting into fights when you're drunk isn't seen as a normal part of nightlife.
For what he’s charged for this will be jail time.
It honestly doesn't, where I'm from. Very little crime, and racism is a bit more subtle where I am.
Lucky you
He'll need to hire the Man City solicitors to avoid jail by the sounds of it..
He could try and greece the bars but his head will never get through. Be like in Terminator2 when the gun gets stuck.
And no I am not taking the piss as there is no way he will spend a day in jail it's just how things work.
Yea, I couldn’t help but smirk at some of the irony at the news coverage this week. ‘Harry was a model professional’ etc. Sterling and Pogba had never been called that.
In fact, this incident may just eclipse Pogba’s ‘off-field antics’ that have caused many to debate whether he should be let go. May just about be worse than dancing with your brother at home, or worse still - a wedding!
Just so they can have Paul 'I want away' Pogba as captain.
Have we? Assualting and bribing police is kind of a big deal.
It's been downgraded to a misdemeanour hasn't it?
No chance he gets jail time, surely? It'll be a fine.
Suspended at the very worst.
2 wrongs don’t make a right Darren.
Oi oi, I'm a propa 'ard lad me. Few pints and 'av a bit of a scrap.He will get a slap on the wrist, a fine and community service.

That's what you sound like.
From reading the trial that’s all that’s been presented in evidence. According to the defence there’s a video showing them being mistreated at the station but the trial wasn’t delayed in order for it to be admitted as evidence. Seems very dodgy to me.
Of course it hasn't. There are some places I wouldn't believe a police officer if my life depended on it.
This comes across as an absolute farce of a court case. The defense being given zero time to prepare themselves is dodgy enough in a country that isn't as corrupt and unethical as Greece.
What's almost certain is that they wanted Harry to offer a bribe and he didn't. 100% they would have accepted it, it's absolutely common place.

Remember when Solskjaer was saying that he tried to do more due diligence on personalities before signing.
Dearie me. Sensitive much?
When did I normalise violence?These legal issues happen all the time. Its rare that you would serve jail time for them.
I'd wager Harry will be fine.
Then why let him go home, if they were going to have the trial a couple of days later?
Not picking on you particularly so apologies but none of us were there but quite a few know how these things can work in different countries.
I'm not even going to attempt to judge Maguire given the weird circumstances of events reported in the press.
Some of the posts from so called united fans in this thread are an absolute embarrassment.
Is Roy Keane happy yet?
Humourous you seem to be taking the cops view of how things went down.
I've been to pretty much every proper holiday resort about in europe and trust me the cops should never be trusted. Complete farce this
