Danny Wilson deserves more time and patience from chunk of Glasgow Warriors support

Danny Wilson deserves more time and patience from chunk of Glasgow Warriors support

DANNY WILSON is a good man and a respected coach who was handed the tough gig of taking over a Glasgow Warriors team entering a hangover period following their heady days (by Scottish rugby standards) under Gregor Townsend and Dave Rennie. 

Little, if anything, had been done in terms of legacy planning and the onslaught of Covid didn’t help in his first year in the job. He deserves more patience and more sympathy than he has received from a sizable chunk of the Warriors support, who appear to have expectations beyond the club’s true means, and who have always viewed his appointment as a convenience move for an individual deemed surplus to requirements in the national set-up after the 2019 World Cup flop but still under contract.
