If the offender, whoever he is, is sacked then he will be signed by one of our opponents within days.
I do hope it can be resolved internally and if sanctions are to be used then hopefully it will be fines and community work rather than dismissal which will without question be counter productive.
I wish those dealing with it well, these things can be very difficult indeed.

Some of the player tags in photos have also been removed (yes I am a geek/slight stalker) but I love the psychology of it all. And to me its concerning, I'm not condoning the act, far from it, it's a dispicable act and one that carries a prison sentence but it's clearly a mistake, we don't hear of the said player acting the big one on a weekly basis and is renowned around Wigan for being a bell end unlike some players currently in the squad and past players.
We can bang on and on about this until we are blue in the face, but it's the Club who has the final say on the matter and as and when will drip feed us information into the current state of play. There is no point in guessing what the outcome will be, nor will it be beneficial to play devils advocate on the issue either I'm guessing that will come with some fans but we need to stick together and ride this out.
We are the most talked about club at the minute and we are getting sly digged left right and centre, but if Leeds can stick with Hardaker, we can stick with our own surely.
All the pictures I have looked at, if it is the same player, are still intact with comments & he still states he is a Wigan player!

Exactly. Not condoning it at all but we are talking young lads and alcohol. We've all been there. And if some of you grown men can't agree on this forum then what hope is there for a team with different personalities, discrepancy in salaries, favouritism etc. This season is proving hard enough as it is.

I think a lot of people will feel exactly the same.

All these posts on withdrawing season tickets and so on, are forgetting that the police may still be involved in pressing criminal charges, thus taking the matter completely out of the Club's hands.
Morale within the players' circle must also be considered especially if they feel a great wrong has been committed by one of their own, regardless of their talent or ability, if it is effectively glossed over. And yet the stain remains which can damage our longer term hopes of success.
In law you can't give one player another "life", or chance, just because he's top of his game, yet condemn a second to a serious punishment, just because he's not as good as the above.

I don't know how you can say that when you don't know what if anything they have done.Im sure if someone is sacked they will deserve it.
