Well, that is assuming that there is not a clause in a contract in regards to salary in the event of a suspension from the club. I am not au-fait with sports law so I don't know how it works but you would think that after the likes of Hock and Flower then Wigan would insert some form of caveat in their contracts?
Regardless though, Leigh must be flying too close to the sun already I would have thought?
