    He uses the theory that if he makes enough vague comments he can then say one was right later. He works just the same as how psychics do

    He was less vague in his follow up. He's probably the most 'in the know' journo when it comes to Wednesday.

    Looks like he's suggesting a points deduction as well. I've heard from various sources today that they've lost their appeal/been charged.

    I hope so. There was a flurry of posts on Friday that suggested they had dodged it entirely. Hopefully, whatever the result, it gets announced soon.

    Stop following me around with your 'We're all doomed' mentality!

    Rick Parry is under mounting pressure. I wouldn't bet against some sanctions being imposed that raise a few eyebrows just to try and save face for the Wigan shambles.

    Nixon also saying the Independant tribunal that Wigan have appealed have a history of reducing the penalties.
    Which if happens could be clever ploy by Wigan as they get admin out way and stay up

    Biggs hasn’t heard anything. Click bait.
