No 9 do not belittle the achievement of the team of 99 a bunch of players half of whom were amateurs beat the cream of the french sides and in the process made the European Cup the competition it is to-day . The crowd attending the final was substantially larger than any previous final. And by winning that team made possible Professional ( full-Time) rugby in Ireland-- prior to 99 their was no Celtic league worthy of the name and most to the players were only part time professionals training before and after work.
At what point did I belittle them? My message was quite clear, do not belittle Benettons achievement.
Come on Rum, you're smarter than this.....
