Lump in the throat stuff at the end. That’s some life he’s lived as a Wigan fan and knowing the role he played in those glory years.

Agreed, gave us some golden nuggets of nostalgia that we would never have known about, such as getting drunk with Mal Reilly after the Manly game as well as a bladdered Dave Whelan getting chucked out of his own bed by his wife on the same evening.

Cracking interview, RIP Maurice

Nice interview + certainly has Hanley as his No.1.
You bought us much joy on the terraces with the players/coaches you provided
R.I.P Maurice Lindsay

Classic moment of Mo when he confronted the coach of one of the Australian club sides we played during a GB tour on the touchline. Think Maurice was tour manager at the time; it was early 90s. In a moment of unbelievable arrogance, the Aussie coach - not sure if it was Phil Gould, or someone similar equally disrespectful - brought subs on in the second-half who hadn't even figured on the team-sheet. Well, Mo wasn't having that. And quite right too.

Thanks for the memories Maurice, RIP.

There are many aspects to his life and career that made a difference but the biggest for me was not what he did for Wigan (great though that was) but how he helped to drag the game of RL into a modern age - despite a lot of resistance, shame that a lot of that vision has gone backwards since, RIP.

He wanted to sign some really good players but could not in the last few years he was here by the salary cap

Massive figure within the game's history. Even as a long suffering Leeds fan during your glory years I'm sorry he's gone. RIP

A truly unique character and don’t think there will ever be anyone quite like him.

Really enjoyed his final interview with KR.

Rest In Peace Maurice & thank you.

That was what I was alluding to a touch line argument and Mo did not back down,Wigan through and through.Great visionary.

I have fond memories of Maurice probably the best was in the 1980s. We had won the John Player Trophy Final and all the players and staff were celebrating in Chaplin's Nightclub. The DJ started a competition regarding who could do the most press-ups. The players cajoled Maurice into being involved, a bad mistake he won easily. I bet he never let them forget it, it certainly gained him the respect of players and fans alike.

A marvellous guy, a great ambassador for rugby league and a Wigan legend (even though he came from Horwich).

RIP my friend.
