Wigan were trying to sign him then, but I was actually pleased that he went to his hometown club. I would imagine the administrators see "value" in him. Sad really but I do hope he now comes to Wigan IF things can't be sorted for him at Bradford. Maybe they could put a clause in his contract giving Bradford first option should they return to the top flight.
That's a generous idea, but I'm not sure the lad or his agent would be happy with it.
What if by then he's become the hottest property in the game?
With the best will in the world, it would likely take Bradford years and years to regain their former status.
If things have gone really well for him in the interim period, isn't he likely to be a little more ambitious?
