Quote: Iggy79 "2 men punching and hitting each other is one thing. What's been alleged goes way beyond that'"


Given that one of the players who was alleged to be involved played the following week without showing any evidence of the damage that would be caused if what was alleged is true I would reasonably conclude that what was alleged was very much exaggerated or untrue.

I agree. As observed at the Salford game. I believe the local saying goes along the lines of "I've got a bigger cut on my ar$e'.

That's what the investigation was for - so you and me don't have to jump to conclusions

Quote: trent "I'm so glad that you're not employed by our club judging by your half ar5ed reply,as it would be a free for all for all players to go and do what the hell they want,in full knowledge that the club won't go OTT and get rid as it would weaken the side

What punishment do you propose that would come down hard so that it sets the right tone?


I'll tell you something now,there is a strong feeling within our squad that Bateman should leave and not play for the club again
Now that is coming down hard so that it sets the right tone
All players at Wigan would then know only too well of the consequences of such behaviour

A serious question here to all Wigan fans

If you were truly in the know as you claim to be you wouldn't be posting it on here

[quote="FlexWheeler":8f22o6ue]The extent of his coaching is ''BASH EM, JUST F*CKING BASH EM. HE'S LOW ON CONFIDENCE, BASH HIM'' He's a limited coach that won't last long term.[/quote:8f22o6ue] .... [quote="rubber duckie":8f22o6ue]That would make Wigan strong favourites then. With Ratchford at FB and Patton with Cronk in the halves, I think we'll do very well without Sam.[/quote:8f22o6ue]:



Fair play to the club. Taking their time to get it right. Hopefully puts some perspective into the decisions for the fans.

[quote="Frank Zappa":1sacjrvf]Some scientists claim that hydrogen, because it is so plentiful, is the basic building block of the universe. I dispute that. I say there is more stupidity than hydrogen, and that is the basic building block of the universe.[/quote:1sacjrvf] [quote="The_Enforcer":1sacjrvf]Most idiotic post ever goes to Grimmy.....

Back for the Saints game, nice quiet return for him then!

As long as the statement is true I'm happy with that. I just hope that he is genuinely remorseful and all concerned can shake hands and move on. My only concern is that bit was written in because that is what would be expected but behind the scenes he is not happy and now looking to move.

On a positive he should be well rested for the business end of the season and if he has the odd niggle it can be sorted in the next 6 weeks.

Why would the statement not be true?

Why disbelieve what Lenegan has said?

There is a saying on the lines of: "Damned if you do and damned if you don`t".

Let`s accept what has been said and move on.
