Tributes paid as Wigan Warriors fan dies in Spain
Anyone can support a team when it is winning, that takes no courage.
But to stand behind a team, to defend a team when it is down and really needs you,
that takes a lot of courage. #18thMan

Been following this on Facebook and yesterday his daughter posted the Travel Insurance company would not pay up to repatriate his body. Absolutely outrageous.
Thankfully later she also posted the club is going to assist, so well done Wigan and IL.
