McKay slams Whelan over Roberts

Last updated : 29 June 2006 By Liam Cooper
Speaking to Sky sports, McKay said: "I think Dave Whelan is a little mistkane in saying the club did not offer Jason a new contract. Jason doesn't want to get involved in a war of words with Whelan or Wigan as they have been reat to him and he has enjoyed his time there."

"Whelan has done a great job with Wigan bringing them from nowhere to The Premiership and we need people like him in the game."

"Wigan are looking to bring in a new striker and Jason feels the time is right to move on."

Roberts was unhappy with the terms supposedly offered to him by the club, and a number of clubs have been alerted, however McKay stated: "Jason just wants to draw a line under it and move on to Charlton."

Contract or no contract, it seems its Jewell and Whelans word against Roberts and McKays. I for one believe the club first.
