Wilkinson proves star attraction.
(From Yorkshire Post)
Sam Wheeler After attracting 14,293 people for their game against Newcastle, Leeds Tykes furiously deny reports that they have offered the Falcons "a substantial, undisclosed sum" to loan Jonny Wilkinson to every team visiting Headingley.
Nevertheless, a five-figure crowd turns up to watch the European Shield game against Petrarca Padova, only to be disappointed when the Italians' line-up does not feature the England captain. However, Wilkinson, wearing sack-cloth and halo, arrives on a magic carpet and spends hours in the snow signing autographs for orphans.
Not to be outdone, neighbours Otley smash a crowd record of their own, shattering National One's existing mark for the number of grey-haired men lined up consecutively along a touchline.
