Very sad news that Jack has passed away when along with Jack Hilton, Maurice Lindsay and Tom Rathbone were responsible for the revival of the club which led to some of the best times and rugby in the clubs history.

One of the things I always remember Jack for when my eldest daughter and I went on a coach to Hull on a terrible night for a mid week game. Before Any of the supporters could get off the coach, Jack came on board and give every supporter a free ticket and thanked us all for travelling to the game in the appalling conditions.

Rest in peace, Jack.

My condolences to his family.

Whilst it's always sad when someone passes away,my only memory of him is not a good one.We were playing Castleford away after a test match and my late father,my mum,my eldest brother and i had gone to the game and we were sat in the stand just behind Mr Robinson and my father went to complain about the team that had been put out(we could have postponed the game due to call-ups),but the club insisted that most of the test players would be playing but none if hardly any were playing,i think Gus O'Donnell played and was violently sick on the pitch,it was literally men against boys and my father who was a lifelong supporter was told to foxtrot oscar by Robinson,after the game finished we were passing the team coach and i had a go at Robinson,i was only about 15 at the time and Andy Farrell came over and threatened me with violence,so not all was sweetness and light back then

I remember the protests against him outside Central Park over the sale of the ground more than anything. It’s probably sad that’s the case considering he was part of the group that revived the clubs fortunes. It’s sad to hear of the passing of any Wigan supporter though and my thoughts go out to his family and friends.

Come again?

Come again what,you don't tell lifelong supporters to f☆☆☆off,without supporters there is no club,IFL wouldn't behave like that

He'd just lie to your face instead

Better that than no class Robinson

Chill out sir. Your original post didn’t make much sense. I got the gist that you didn’t like the fella but it just read as the ramblings of someone who’d had 10 pints.

1,I don't need to chill out
2,I never didn't like him up until what he did to my father
3,I don't drink and it wasn't me rambling,it was me telling a story of an ignorant human being abusing the very people that the club relies on to keep going

I think a little respect is in order rather than petty squabbling.

RIP Jack

That's poor form
