Pearl Fire and Security Limited sponsored the ball at a football match that pitted M1 rivals, Watford and Luton Town, against each other for the first time in recent years as the clubs’ contrasting fortunes kept them in different divisions. The game, a Worthington Cup match, also gave the company an opportunity to entertain their clients – and in more ways than one.

Within minutes of the kick-off, rival fans began a fight both off, and on, the pitch. Order was soon restored however, and Luton went on to win the match 2:1.
