Of course he has!
As Wigan's number 1 fan he washes the kit every week, carefully ironing and folding it whilst watching Boots'n'All.
He spends his Friday afternoons making half time snacks for the players and always arrives at the ground early to help make sure the pitch is in tip-top condition.
Then he dashes off to the dressing rooms to neatly lay out each player's kit and places their little treat on top with a big smile on his leathery Yorkshire face.
Then it's outside the ground to sell as many Golden Gamble tickets as he can before racing to the turnstiles to welcome the other (less fanatical of course) Wigan fans to the game.
He keeps himself to himself during the game cos he's just so nervous, throwing every pass, kicking every kick, making every tackle!
Half time means getting behind that bar to serve his fellow supporters with top quality and low priced beer.
After the game he stands at the gates shaking hands and thanking each fan for coming to the game and sharing his passion for the world's greatest rugby club.
Then it's off home quick sharp where Maurice has his Wembley '89 pyjamas and a big mug of horlicks ready. Into his bed with the cherry and white covers pulled up to his nose and dreams of that 18th Challenge Cup.
