Is it really so difficult to implement a rule of, here we go, if you get banned in the first team game, you have to serve that ban come what may. Banned in the reserves, you're banned for them first and foremost and the firsts till its served. I can understand why if you got banned for the reserves it can't be reserves only as senior players could go carte blanch in the reserves..
And yeah, it isn't the Wigan club us fans elsewhere are laughing at/grumbling. It's, and not for the first time, the sports governing rules.
Will Ellis and French especially turn up and play about 30 secs too ? Or do they just have to be named in the 21?
