| Iv been lurking in the shadows of this forum for a few years but this topic is something Iv always wished people talk about publicly. I’m in my 20’s and enjoy a night out and it no secret that certain players do recreational drugs. You could ask 9/10 young people around Wigan and they will have a story about players to tell you (a certain centre especially). I’m just shocked it’s taken this long to discuss. I didn’t mind whilst we were winning but I think we now have to start taking action. Some of these ‘professionals’ are starting to take the mick. Culture or not, your a professional, act like it..

| The moral hysteria from some on here over cocaine use is laughable, as is the hypocrisy. Going out and drinking ten pints is just fine, but take cocaine and you’re suddenly the scum of the earth in the eyes of some. Alcohol is by some distance the greater evil, it just happens to be legal. A report by the Independent Scientific Committee on Drugs, published in The Lancet in 2010, showed that cocaine is significantly less harmful than alcohol in terms of both harm caused to users and harm caused to others.
Yes, the drug is illegal and a player taking it would break the law in doing so, but how many of the sanctimonious moral arbiters on here can honestly say they’ve never never broken the law? I’m assuming that none of you upstanding citizens have ever done so by driving over the speed limit, for example- after all, the statistics show that speeding causes far more deaths per annum in the U.K. than cocaine.
The lad has made a mistake; who hasn’t? When any ban has been served, I for one hope to see him back in a Wigan jersey and being given the second chance that everyone deserves.

If the other one you refer to is me I would just like to inform you I have never dabbled in cocaine. I just happen to believe the war was lost some time ago.

| I’ve no idea whether it’s cocaine or PED’s. And, no, I don’t use cocaine- it is possible to have an informed opinion on the relative harm caused by different drugs without being a user.

| We waste billions trying to prevent the unpreventable instead of raking in billions in tax. Why does holding such an opinion mean you are a user?
