Quote of the Day | 17 March 2008

From Alasdair Reid’s inquest into Saturday’s Roman debacle:

Rome is not exactly short of statues, but they could raise another one this morning to Dan Parks, the Scotland fly-half, whose woeful performance virtually gifted Italy their win. The official statistics showed that Parks had made seven errors in the game, the most significant of which was that he emerged from the dressing room in the first place.

Too true, too bleedin’ true.
