HongKongVillan Posted August 25, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted August 25, 2020 So in his defense, his sister was drugged and almost got kidnapped by a couple of Albanian men. If true, surely there is some medical records to at least prove his sister was in fact a target? And if the answer is no, should he be in more shit than what he is currently facing, and also an apology to Albania for stereotyping them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But this will be suspended because it is a first offence and charges were misdemeanours Would loved to have seen him locked up Only if he had 100% did it beyond all reasonable doubt... Having lived in countries where you can be looked at as a walking ATM and where the police are incredibly corrupt? The fear that you can be thrown into a cell and forgotten about because it’s their word against yours and they are trying to extort money from you is horrible... If he did do it, then he deserves to be punished... but there’s two sides to every story and I would not be surprised if some of the police knew who he was, demanded a bribe and he refused so they made up that he attempted to bribe them... I also read that his defence council was not given adequate time to build a case for him... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe Maguire is not Harry Maguire's brother, but every churnalist has just decided, well, they have the same surname, and declared it so. Why believe anything else they say when such basic factual errors are commonplace. Not just the BBC, it's in the Guardian, the Times, and many others. Either they're all equally shit, or they're just copy and pasting their work from the same source. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dudevillaisnice Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 Maybe he is innocent but him saying “do you know who I am?” to the police sounds plausible.. he doesn’t come across as the brightest. Either way he has rightly been dropped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevo985 Posted August 26, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted August 26, 2020 There's two aren't there? There's a Joe Maguire who plays in the lower leagues who IS Harry's brother, and he's the one who got arrested with harry. And there's a Joe Maguire who plays in League 1 who isn't related but is getting confused in the whole thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't know about the confused player - my better half's brother went to school with Harry in Ches Vegas. Joe is definitely his brother!

villa4europe Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 the police are saying he said "do you know who I am" and kept offering them money, he says that the police kicked his legs and said "your footballing days are finished" I would guess that both are talking shit fortunately there is a whole load of man utd fans on social media who are greek legal experts to help sort this out 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If true, surely there is some medical records to at least prove his sister was in fact a target? I find this quite hard to believe tbh, hopefully there is some evidence to support it. The story was initially she’d been stabbed, to poked with a sharp object, now injected with date rape drugs ahead of an abduction. Not sure if it’s just internet Chinese whispers or if it’s coming out of the Maguire camp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
