		The club was founded in 1861 and is one of the oldest clubs in English rugby history.
		The club has consistently provided international players and, during the 1930s, had one of its most dominant periods, fielding players of the calibre of Hal Sever (England), Claude Davey and Wilf Wooller (Wales) and Ken Fyfe (Scotland).
		Off the field, Peter Deakin was recruited from Warrington Wolves rugby league as Chief Executive to employ the skills he had used with the Bradford Bulls and Saracens and he made an immediate impact in raising the club's profile until hit by the serious illness which claimed his life in February 2003.

		With Sale being without several key players due to international commitments, Worcester must have fancied their chances of getting a result against the league leaders, however as John Brain commented after the match, the league table doesn't lie and Sale are at the top for a reason.
		Worcester played some good rugby during the try-fest which must have proved an entertaining game for the neutral, and the hosts enjoyed plenty of possession and were unlucky to find themselves 17 - 3 down with just 16 minutes on the clock.
		The Warriors were very much still in the game when they came out for the second half, however the Sharks had other ideas.
