I wouldn't have stated as much as I have in defence of my information without being as close to 100% as is possible. The information I have simply can't be ignored.'"
You said earlier that your main source was 'Category A' ie someone actually involved in the rumour. This would be either IL, SW, Hock or Mystery Third Party Person.
You also said you've never met/spoken to Hock - so its not him.
IL is in the dark on all this (allegedly) - so its not him.
SW - Doubt he would tell you as such a rumour would jepordise his career.
This leaves Mr Third Party - why would he/she put such a rumour out and involve themselves with staff at the club?
???

| Quote: Vectrabeast "If that is how you want to decipher it then thats up to you. I have been led to believe that Hock hasn't spoken directly to IL, that all conversation has been through his agent and also that contrary to any statement from the club Hock hasn't missed training or rehabilitation. I'm not claiming that everything I have been told is gospel, just that I believe most of it to be true, there are bound to be differences of opinion when information is coming from various sources but what I would class as the important information is pretty credible to me.
I'm not spreading rumours about the club or any individuals I'm merely giving my opinion based on information I have. (information that I have kept entirely to myself)'"
Did Lenagan state in that press release that he had spoke "face to face" with Hock?
That's not interpretation, that is published in black and white.
Wigan chairman Ian Lenagan stood by Hock during his drugs ban, but added: "Gareth Hock has made it clear in face-to-face discussions with me and via his agent that he has no intention of playing for the Wigan club.

I'm not disputing what IL said, its there for all to see

No what your saying is that you believe IL isn't telling the truth, aren't you?
Quote: Vectrabeast " My understanding is slightly different though, that Hock hadn't spoken directly to IL that all discussions had been done through Hock's agent.'"

| I think Pie Eyed summed it up perfectly, we're going round in circles with rumour and innuendo that potentially could get some people into a lot of trouble. The main subject matter about Hock himself hasn't really been discussed for some time now, so it's probably best if we leave this thread alone for now.
Representation has been made to the site about some of the subject matter in this thread and "[ipeople from within the club are aware of the false comments....... and if it persists then they will persue the matter further.[/i"
I would suggest people don't repeat any of the rumours or even imply what they are, even by PM. Closing this thread doesn't mean people can start the same conversations on the Wane thread, thanks.
