Fans Forum 28.08.08 Fan from Haydock "I've got one word for you Mr Chairman - Penalty Count" [quote="The Daddy"]I've got one word for you all......Steve Hanley[/quote] Some Salford fan said to me and I quote "You are by far and away the most Handsome & Knowledgeable Rugby League Fan in England!" I thanked him and went on my Merry way! RIVERCAVE DWELLER OF THE YEAR 2015! "The club used you last night and didn't tell the truth." Officially one of the 119 Mugs used by the club:icons077e_files/5454-3678dentheman-msnicons.jpg

How did you feel about Bailey/Walker/Hardaker?

When basically Wigan have punished him appropriately in the same way your club did with those players?
So did you say "Until the next time he messes up" about them?

As I expected, a brief, bland statement by the club about an "incident" and what they have done with Bateman. No mention of what (if any) sanction was taken against the other person involved.

A telling line from the statement was “John Bateman has expressed his full regret at the incident, [sizeas have other parties[/size"

Questions still remain unanswered, such as

What incident?
Who else was involved?
What disciplinary action was taken against the other party?

Do Wigan Warriors actually employ a Media & Communications Officer?

I don't think any of that actually matters. And i don't think we have a right to know as such either. Guy screwed up, he's been punished, there's a game on thursday, lets move on.

How about be thankful that the matter is now closed? I'm happy, we have not lost a great player whilst recognising he needs to be suitably punished.

Again, another example of Wigan being a firm but fair club that offers support to its players. That will do for me. (can you imagine Koucash handling it like this)?

Quote: Trainman "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.'"

Stitches were inside his mouth.

Rugby league must be a great game to survive the people who run it. Never argue with an idiot. He will bring you down to his level and beat you with experience.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_4916.gif

Well said.

What's the weather forecast for tomorrow night? Could be slippy on that pitch

Let's all move on and get behind our players

Bateman (from Yorkshire) + others (not from Yorkshire and possibly home-grown) involved. Bateman gets fine and ban. Others (appear) to have been let off scot free.

Because the rumours about what "actually" happened and with who will continue.

From the rumours I've heard the other alleged parties aren't even from Lancashire let alone "home-grown".

More than happy with this outcome BTW.

And Wane will be more than happy to see the back of them when they do leave, apparently.

You seem a little disappointed that IL hasn't banned a whole raft of players. icon_confused.gif

The details are an internal and private matter which has been investigated, facts gathered and dealt with. Wigan RL would have obligations to keep certain things comfidential.
