This reminds me of the story of the famous writer who turned up at Cannes sans smoking jacket! Thus security threw him out of the industry party.
Infuriated, he approached the festival director who wrote a letter of recommendation that the writer had arrived without his jacket but not sans la couer! Please treat him in the manner he deserves.
Returning to the security chap, the writer brandished his letter. ‘…the manner in which he deserves…’ concluded the security, kicking him out all over again…
Having this in what will seem an incredibly empty Eden Park seems daft.
