Ulster’s Round 2 Heineken Champions Cup clash against French giants, Clermont at Kingspan Stadium tonight will be the club’s 150th in the European competition. Only Munster (175), Leinster (169), Toulouse (166) and Leicester Tigers (156) have played more European games, with Scarlets having played the same number of games as Ulster. It is the 25th anniversary of the European Club Professional Rugby’s premier competition, and to celebrate the occasion, all previous winners will be presented with a commemorative silver salver. As winners of the tournament in 1999, Ulster’s silver salver will be presented at half-time during the game against Clermont and will be accepted by IRFU Ulster Branch President and 1999 European Cup winner, Gary Leslie.
