Fans
told
to follow faith, not football
By RUSSELL

The Roman
Catholic Bishop
of Salford is to ask Catholic
supporters of Liverpool and
Manchester United to
choose faith over football.
The teams are due to play
at Old Trafford at 3pm on
Good Friday, the time when
churches commemorate
Christ's Passion with a
sacred liturgy. The Right
Reverend Terence Brain is
writing an open letter to the
teams' supporters' clubs.
The Roman Catholic Archb
-ishop of Liverpool, the Most
Reverend Patrick Kelly, has
written of his concern to the
chairman of Liverpool FC. A
Premiership spokesman said
the 3pm timing was chosen on
police advice.

Not a bad
choice as far as
these two
clubs go, I
would have
thought. |
