Looking forward to reading it. I reckon the pitch invasion thing comes from a quote in the Leader from Michael Webb (then Chairman).Quote:

Seems a bit of post-rationalisation to me. The motive was to earn money and it backfired. Unless Mr Wenn foresaw that we were going to get robbed. In the following paragraph he says that if Limerick qualify again they will play in Limerick. Hardly concerned about invasions then.
Well done, Ox. More profile for the Blues. :cool:
