No one really cares who you jump over or why.

Just don't expect anyone at Wigan to be upset.

The guy's a muppet. If he's screwed up again, great ... we have a lot of money to spend elsewhere.

I’ve said all along I don’t want him back at Cas.
He’s more likely to return if Wigan sack him. Powell and Wells wanted to keep him, it was Steve Gill that decided to get rid.
I wouldn’t agree with it, but if Wigan do decide to sack him then it’s very possible he’ll end up back at Cas.

You seem to care a bit, however much you might try & disguise it.

When they said he was back in training I didn't think they meant ......

What is it he has supposed to have done? It's a shame if something has happened. Despite how it all ended at Cas for him he's still a world class player on the field and for his sake you'd hope he can move on and get back to doing what he does best.

Can a moderator advise on what can and cannot be said on here please?

Slow news day here. Can't wait till Zak is named 2019 MOS after helping us win back to back GFs.

Thank god Escare is staying.

Still don't think Escare is good enough to be first choice.

But IF (and I stress, IF) the latest Zak rumours are true, then just get rid now. It will save the hassle in the long run.

Not a mod but i generally like to go off the "Don't say anything you couldn't back up in court" rule.

IF it's true
The club need to make a statement, but in reality can't do until he receives his charge sheet.

If it were me I'd fine him heavily, insist he moves over here immediately, at his own expense, any refusal would be immediate termination of contract.

OR they could sell him back to Cas for a transfer fee, now that would be good

I always stated that it was too big a risk but hey ho that's life, at the moment it has only cost Wigan about one months salary.

Due in court on 11th October. Charged with driving with excess alcohol, driving whilst uninsured and driving without an MOT.

He’s also assisting police with their enquiries regarding a large quantity of class A found in the car.

Confirmed by Phil Wilkinson on Twitter. Also states the club have made a brief statement but will make no further comment until judicial process has been completed.

I honestly don’t know what we should do. I know we have Escare and I know he’s a good player but I just wonder if he’s good enough at FB defensively.

Do we say “now you’re in last chance saloon”? It’s not like we haven’t had players drink drive in the past is it (Gelling springs to mind). Then again we haven’t had a player with Zak’s chequered past drink drive. Or do we say “You had your chance, you blew it” (no pun intended).

I can’t make my mind up to be perfectly honest. If I was pushed I’d probably tip on the let him go side.
