Downgraded from the original charge. That's why he was allowed home. He'll be fined a couple of days' wages, maybe, plus the blot on his character (obv his transfer was a greater sin).

Wigan was a rugby town with no real football heritage when Wigan Borough became founder members of Div 3N in 1921. The placed was not earned as Wigan United /Wigan Association / Wigan Borough (three names in one season) finished 17th of 18 clubs in the Lancashire Combination in 1919-20. Champions for the first time were Chorley. The FA simply wanted to invade RL territory as they had previously done with Hull, Leeds, Huddersfield and Bradford. RL fans had no time for football clubs in the town.

I was incommunicado in Bamburgh for several days. No phone signal, no paper shop, but at least I bumped into Brendan Foster - 25 years to the day since I last met him (in Gotherburg Airport). Whelan pulled the plug on Orrell RUFC. Wigan RFLC will do no favours for Athletic.

Gordon Banks holds the Central League record for goals conceded, when he was a teenager playing for Chesterfield Reserves. They were no match for the leading Reserve teams playing in that league in the 50s, and were only there because of the influence of their chairman.

Terror Attacks
It should be noted that when the school suspected she and her mates were being groomed by ISIS they sent letters to the parents ... to be delivered by the girls (it saved postage).
