Quins-born lady in red risks wrath of English

BARBARA RICHARDSON will be easy to spot at Thomond Park tomorrow afternoon.

She will be the lady wearing a custom made red dress adorned with the Munster crest that has become a familiar sight to fans of the Red Army on their adventures throughout Europe.

Yet tomorrow’s Amlin Challenge Cup semi-final will be a strange occasion for one of the province’s most colourful supporters. Richardson was born and raised in the heart of Harlequins country and — whisper it — is a paid up member of the English club. But she won’t be suffering a crisis of conscience when game time swings around.
