A FORMER rugby league star has admitted multiple breaches of a court order which was meant to stop him contacting his ex-wife.

Ex-Workington Town and Wigan forward Stephen Holgate, 44, entered guilty pleas to eight crimes when he appeared at Carlisle Crown Court today (MON).

Holgate, a member of Wigan’s 1998 Super League Grand Final-winning side, admitted making repeated illegal contact with both his former wife, Julie, and her sister, Lisa Powe.

The offences occurred during a two-and-a-half-month period up to 29th February this year.

All were committed in breach of a restraining order which was imposed by magistrates in November, 2014.

One of the breaches involving his ex-wife occurred on Christmas Day, and another on Valentine’s Day.

Holgate, said to be of no fixed address, is due to be sentenced at the crown court tomorrow (TUES).

In the meantime he was remanded in custody.

He's a 44 year old wife beater. Every town is full of them. They are the jolly old boys in the pub at the weekend who call you 'my mate' even though you don't know them. They shake your hand saying "Here's mi hand, here's mi heart" before going home to beat the crap out of the missus because the chips aren't cooked enough.

He made 17 starts nearly 20 years ago. Was his 'Wigan Player" status really worthy of mention?

What he may be or have done we hardly know or the circumstances so it makes it silly to throw crap his way. Right/wrong/whatever it is sad.

I know people who know Holly well and he hasn't been well for some time.
Some people can move on from break ups in relationships, others can't and some it seems to just press the distruct button.
The latter is the case with Stephen.

N.B Pic is Tallec not Holgate

BUT read carefully, engage your brain as to why there is no jail sentence. Meds have never been married etc :roll:

I know Holly wasn't by any means a star at Wigan Bri, but I remember him destroying sides on his own from 2nd row at Workington Town.
The lad is honestly in bits as told to me from colleagues at the site where I work near Seascale.
