Nice of them to support their employees so well and he's clearly much more deserving of such support than say Mike Gregory. They will make a nice pairing, Zak has probably found his spiritual home.

You do realise the club was owned and run by totally different people don’t you?

Indeed, just pointing out the morally dubious decisions your club continues to make (regardless of who is in charge) - but you win the trophies and we don't!
I understand that Wigan are looking after the welfare of the player and the wider community as they did with Bateman. Joel 'nowhere near as good' Tomkins wasn't afforded such a luxury though strangely enough.

Been done for Drink driving - no insurance - no MOT - owning a Fiesta - failing a drugs test - making homophobic comments - alleged assault of a 22-year-old student - Not bad for a 26-year-old. When does the book come out?

don't need to read it now.
You've pretty much said it all in less that 30 words.

I’m not daft enough to suggest we’re doing anything out of the goodness of our hearts but honestly the current owner isn’t in the league of Dave Whelan when it comes to be a total ball bag. It’s pointless bringing the Mike Greg situation in to any debate about Wigan’s morals because that was down to people not the club and they’re not involved anymore. I doubt they would’ve looked after Macauley Davies the way the current regime are trying to do for example.

Wigan are between a rock and a hard place now that they've shipped out Sam Tomkins. They'd be damned if they sacked him, and damned if they didn't. It's part of the gamble they took when they signed him, and due to the nature of the offense, they've sat down and decided to give him the opportunity to turn his life around. It remains to be seen which path ZH chooses to go down, and whether Wigan made the correct decision to sign him.
