A rugby club has paid tribute to its former vice chairman after his death. Vice Chairman of Wigan Warriors, John Martin, was described as ‘Wigan through and through’.
John, who was respected by all in Wigan, regularly attended games at the DW Stadium and performed at the Riverside Club just last Saturday, despite struggling with illness.
Martin, who joined the Cherry and White’s board in 1992, passed away at the age of 77, on Tuesday. He has since been described as a ‘man who loved to perform but always had time for everybody’.
