So how come fans hated Maurice Lyndsay ? Should we have not been behind him ( No puns please ! ) all the way regardless of past comments ? And Mr Fatfan, I did say ” I wonder if ” and ” Some ” Not exactly a sweeping statement was it !
Personally, I’d have supported Maurice Lyndsay if push had come to shove.
When he made his ‘infamous’ comments about Wigan Athletic he was a Wigan RL employee, so of course he was going to look after the best interests of his employer. At the time he had no affiliation to the football club, and saw them as merely his nearest rivals for attracting local support and investment.
I understand why some people hate him, but I’m sure there are others who post on here who didn’t give a toss when he was employed bt Wigan Athletic as long as he did a good job.
Maybe it’s just that I don’t get as emotional as other posters.
