Mind you, he did also state publicly on Radio Manchester that the new ground would be ready for June 2011, and that Saints had sold as many tickets for the GF as Wigan.
I'll leave you to decide.'"
Half of what Uncle Mo stated was not true, the other half were lies. Not much to decide here, apart from which were which!!!'"
He was still the best RL administrator this country has ever had.'"
Please list his achiements, starting with:=
1 The Game in General (Administration wise)
2 Great Britain Team
3 Super League (please mention how Wigan RLFC were on the verge of going out of business)
4 Is he any relation to Vince Cable? |

Hear hear! Whenever we have the great 'who's the best RL administrator this country has ever had', I always bat for Maurice. |

SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS
For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.
For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.
Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg |

I thought I answered it (admittedly with a bit of sarcasm, which is most unlike me) in the second post on the page. |

Maurice Lindsay was a very good RL administrator, although he still has his enemies within the world game!
Wasn't he involved in the Super League RL war that was responsible for the break up of the game down under between the Super League and the ARL?
Did he not once quote in these dealings that"history is bunk."?
When questioned on the AshesLindsay replied
Whelan and Lindsay were also believed to be the dream team to save Wigan RL, but sadly both exited stage left after delivering nowt in their time there!
He also didnt fit in with the salary cap did he?  |

I'd say we prob spending at the top end of the salary cap. I think in years gone by when we've had the likes of newlove, longy, kc, tommy, joynt and scaly etc we was bending the rules somehow. ( like a few teams are now)

Whelan and Mo didn't win much in their time at Wigan I agree.
The one thing they did win was the Challenge Cup in 2002.
Remind me again who Wigan beat in that game!
As for Saints being up to the cap.
I was told, rightly or wrongly, that only five clubs spent the cap in 2010.
Saints, Wigan, Leeds, Hull FC and Warrington.

The only thing Lindsay was good at was hewing a swathe of destruction across wherever he happened to be (oh, and spending other people's money).
He dug Wigan into a grave and then left Jack Robinson with the coffin (bought on tick). His spell at Red Hall was an unmitigated disaster and he made a prize prat of himself when he teamed up with Murdoch, Ribot et al and started pontificating to the Aussies about the deficiencies of the ARL (!!!).
A crass and shallow snake oil salesman who thrived in a sport which at the time was devoid of ideas and suffocated by self-interest. Comparisons with someone like Richard Lewis can only be viewed as comical.
