Just to confirm, much as he might think otherwise, covkid1953 does not represent the thoughts and views of Coventry Rugby club, or the entirety of it's supporters.

Exactly right and no matter how much re-invention of history occurs that remains the case. It stinks and the smell will sadly spread to the decent clubs in this new invitational league.

So do you blame the RFU and PRL for their lack of supervision, or Worcester for taking an opportunity to provide employment for players, coaches and backroom staff who may otherwise not be emplyed in a sport they have trained for? Also with expanding the business giving empolyment to many others and buiness opportunties to local firms. And not lesat a club to support that was taken away from supporters in a scandalous manner through no fault of theirs.

Yes the RFU allowed the defaulters to run up £30 million of debt, so something went seriously wrong with their supervision. I presume the defaulters will be paying HMRC the correct amount of employment taxes, however many people they are employing this time, rather than running up a £6 million debt in tax liabilities. If I was HMRC I would be all over the defaulters like a rash to ensure we do not end up with a repeat performance.

I don't have a problem with Wuss as a club or their supporters, but I would be very worried about the bloke who is running the show, I would not want him anywhere near my club.

I absolutely do not blame the new owners for the behaviour of their predecessors, but for me the finger points at the RFU (surprise) and Premiership Rugby; the latter have made it clear that 10 clubs are not enough for a viable league and the yellow brick road for a revived club with great facilities is being swept clean.
For old buffoons like me who believed in genuine clubs rather than corporate constructs, it’s very sad, especially when we’re losing players to the new corporate entity.
