I take it that neither of them are responsible for drawing up or signing contracts then? If so, then yes, but to publicly claim TWICE that Bateman and Edwards had signed contracts only to have it discovered that no contracts were signed doesn't constitute integrity or professionalism with me. Amateurish, Naïve, possibly deceitful are descriptions that spring to my mind.

I'd be pretty surprised if IL's businesses operated on a nod and a wink. KR is an ex-rugby player in a suit.

Regardless of what has happened, after the way he has whored himself around there is no way SE should set foot in Wigan ever again. He aint welcome any more.

Absolutely he’s whored himself around hasn’t he. What do you expect him to do when his supposed employer couldn’t be bothered to draw up his contract within 8 months.

I’m chuffed for him if he stays in union. Good on him after the way he’s been treated by your absolute shambles of a club

"Search for the hero" now has a different ring to it.

You don’t believe what you’ve typed, you’re just putting words on a page to try and get a reaction.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with anything that has been done by the club. I can’t reiterate it enough and can only repeat that I hope against all hope they make everything public.

We've got several players that need to search for the hero inside themselves.

I know exactly what you mean mate but he’s been well and truly kneecapped on this. I was as angry as anybody and I believed our leadership to be in a state of shambles. I mentioned the perception of the fans and the potential impact on the club’s reputation and was corrected. The response was that the chairman cares more about the character of the club because character is what you actually are and perception is what people think you are. Mr Lenegan (and Rads) can hold their heads up high and look straight in the mirror to see integrity and professionalism. I’m genuinely proud to be a Wigan fan because of it. As I said yesterday, i only hope the full facts come out.

Why dont you give us the facts that you know?

No need to mention who told you or even go into too much detail.

Just saying that you have the facts and its not the clubs fault is not enough,

3 year contract? Did he sign one or not?

He's not far off the same position you're in. He's been trusted with some unique information, and if he spills it on here, it will be obvious to his contact where it has come from and will be seen as a betrayal.

I don't blame him for sitting on it at the present time in the hope that at some point soon the club themselves will speak out.

Personally, I don't know why the club don't just give their side of the story right now ... unless they still feel the situation with Shaun Edwards can be salvaged, in which case they won't want to get into open slanging matches in the press, which might make things irretrievable. I wouldn't want him now - the standards in British RU are unimpressive when you look at the NRL, plus he's treated us very badly - but maybe IL and co feel they were too far along the line with him to just back off without making an effort.

I don't know. Why don't we wait and see what happens next?
