A Game of Two Halves
Sean Long
and Leon Pryce
Postscript. I've just read about the terrible tragedy at the match (no, not the referee) and my condolences go to anyone affected by it. With 20,000 tickets sold and temperatures of 30 degrees forecast, the bar staff took it upon themselves to order in beer for 3000, which ran out after no time at all!
I do have personal experience of dreadful situations like this, when, on a memorable-for-all-the-wrong-reasons trip to Salford, 12,000 tickets had been sold and 3 barstaff were trying to cope with an insatiable demand for ale. Imagine how we felt, sober, when Saints' prop Tony Burke made the only pass of his career straight to a Salford player, who promptly scored to knock us out of the cup.
