Long shot but not daft....don't shoot me down!





IF the sample B test comes up positive and he is banned - would it perhaps be a hugely kind and politically correct move by the club to offer replacement shirts for kids who have been bought shirts with his name on them?



He was seen and promoted as a role model and as so, his club also have a social responsibility.



Would it be worth the club ofering this option as a good will gesture. I know a couple of people who's kids have his name on them who couldn't afford to fork out again, even if it is to spare the kids feelings.



Other clubs haven't done this, but with Gaz being as many papers have already pointed out, the biggest name to be involved in this type of thing and Wigan surley not wanting fans to be penalised...would it be worth a ground breaking gesture of support?



Opinions?

Fully agree

I agree.

I too agree.

Hock's wages will cover it.

Would be a nice gesture.

Would nt it be a lot easier,if you just replaced the H with a C..

That was his name before he changed it 'Charnock'.......Hence I have always called him 'Gareth C.Hock'

good idea

Hocks let people down not the club.



If he has anything about him he should cover the costs(or at least suggest it to the club and see what they can do between them).



I really want to see what Hock himself makes to all this, i'd hope he'll be heartbroken enough to do something about his life but i'm not banking on it.

I don't know I wouldn't want it to drag on that much. It is bad enough as it is. I think it would be best for the club to just do what they are doing and act strictly by the rules.

No. Why should the club be made to pay for Hock's stupidity?
