Best wishes to Lee. I respect he kept his own counsel about what went wrong and didn't take the opportunity to criticise or blame anyone.

A very decent person. "If he has a lingering grievance it is with those across English rugby who were less than supportive during Wasps’ darkest days. “I get frustrated when I see certain agendas out there. That’s the only thing I would question at times. I’m not directing that at anyone particularly but we should always remember what’s best for the game and the people within it.". No names, no packdrill: but we all have our own ideas who he means and we won't forget them.

Blackett also cites the former Wasps chief executive, Stephen Vaughan (now with Yorkshire CCC), and new owner Christopher Holland as good people still worthy of respect.
That is interesting. Quite telling too, considering the flack Vaughn has had.
