Paisley leads protest over Sunday rugby
Ian Paisley led a “Never on a Sunday” protest in Belfast today as thousands of rugby fans flocked to Ulster’s first round European Cup match against Leicester to see its array of England World Cup winning stars.
The Democratic Unionist Party leader joined parishioners from the Mount Merrion Free Presbyterian Church close to the Ravenhill ground in south Belfast who are implacably opposed to games on the Sabbath.
