Harlequins accuse fans of selling on tickets to Munster Quins were strongly fancied to go through but, to the delight of the raucous Munster following, lost 18-12. Away sides are entitled to 25 per cent of the overall ticket allocation, 3,750 in this case. Harlequins could have taken the game across the road to Twickenham, but chose to stage the game at the Stoop to maximise home advantage. They were mindful that Munster attract huge support and would have outnumbered Quins" fans had the game had been held at Twickenham. In a strongly-worded statement, Harlequins expressed their anger at what they considered betrayal. "It is clear to the club that many of its "supporters" sold their tickets to opposition fans. To say this is disappointing to players, coaches and management is an understatement. It was obvious that Munster had a presence in the stadium that exceeded the number of tickets officially allocated to them. The club is determined to identify any person that sold on his ticket. Meanwhile, the fractious relationship between the English clubs and European Rugby Cup worsened last night after Leicester director of rugby Richard Cockerill hit out at the governing body's decision not to cite Toulon lock Bakkies Botha following the clubs" Heineken Cup quarter-final. Leicester are aggrieved that ERC did not follow up the recommendation of its citing officer, Eddie Walsh, who deemed worthy of investigation the incident in which Botha raised his knee and made contact with Marcus Ayerza. The Tigers prop will miss the rest of the season with a fractured collarbone. "It's a disgraceful decision not to at least have a hearing," Cockerill said. We are bitterly disappointed at the inconsistency of the disciplinary process at ERC level yet again. It's against the laws of the game to hurdle into a player. The match citing officer put it forward as a citable offence. ERC insists it followed due process. English clubs have pledged to withdraw from European competition from the end of next season unless a new format is agreed. Leicester expect flanker Tom Croft to be fit for Sunday's match against Wasps after recovering from a back spasm. The London club will be under new ownership after Irish businessman Derek Richardson was confirmed as the new principal shareholder of the financially-stricken outfit. Richardson's involvement could see the club return to west London from High Wycombe. "This is a long-term challenge I want to meet head-on," said Richardson, who made his fortune in the insurance business. Bath scrum-half Michael Claassens, is to leave the club at the end of the season with a move to Toulon likely.
