...........no direct mention or apology to the player at the centre of this. A player who was visibly upset both during and after the game.
To me it looks like the only player who's wellbeing is being considered is that of the offender and not the victim.

He's expressed his remorse. Let's hear it then.

...........absolutely !!

Exactly if he is indeed remorseful for what he said then by now he should have at the very least issued a statement and an apology. Its very disconcerting that Wigan have released a statement and in that it says Tony Clubb is remorseful yet no statement or public apology expressing this himself. The lack of this by now says to me that he remorseful for being caught saying it rather being remorseful for actually saying it.

If it were me and I was truly remorseful I'd have released a personal statement by now, its not like he hasn't had time to do so and I see no legal reason why he can't have.

Jens Lehmann has been sacked by his German club for a racist WhatsApp message, no messing around as soon as his guilt was determined he was let go immediately, football is showing us how to deal with it.

More like desperation considering there was a possibility of a longer ban on a failed appeal.
If Mau was going to be fit then dont see the point but looks from this that he wont

We say this about Sneyd every season but some still see him as top half back

Including, but not confined to, a lot of people whose opinions have some value.

Or maybe he he will, along with Reynolds.

yes the good news is they are both fit
feeling a lot more confident now that we can turn them over

So Clubb’s penalty was reduced as whatever was said was “in the heat of the moment”. Don’t understand that. What had gone on? He was playing rugby; it’s his job.
With regard to Farrell’s head high tackle some people suggest there was no comparison with Connor’s tackle. What are they suggesting? That he executed it with such precision that he knew no damage would be done. The penalty should be for the act, not the outcome.

The usual standard of punditry from Bob.
