Ealing Trailfinders 1871 won this match at Wasps on Friday night and secures promotion. They were in Counties , Middllesex and Herts 2 along with both Wasps and Saracens Amateurs. All credit to the volunteers and years of hard work from the home grown players who play rugby for the love of the game.

I meant it CC. The management of the game is no further forward than it was when Roth were in the Prem. As far as I am concerned they can shove professional rugby. Promotion is earned on the pitch, not in a committee room. |

And Wasps are hosting Saracens on the 16th! That's the fixture they should be encouraging all these glory hunting internet fans to attend, rather than watching an immoral, empty pipe dream on Twitter.

Wasps amateurs are already in existence and some of their fans are now supporting them, the only people not following the rules are Dalaglio and his leg ends.

This works if they enter the URC. (No idea how)
If they re-enter the English hierarchy by skipping a few levels, it's wrong. If they buy into and rebrand an existing club then that is up to that club. Not sure what I think about that.

This so unbelievable.
OK find a temporary site in the south east to climb the pyramid just like others have had to do. Anything else would be outrageous !

If they had the audacity to let them play in the Championship, they won’t worry about a bit of booing. By then, the damage will have been done. Every single club should prevent this at all costs. If they plan on starting so high they may as well let them play in the Prem and cast that division adrift. |

So, when it comes to debts new Wasps are nothing to do with Wasps. But when it comes to rugby, they want to claim the history. Can you spell Doublethink? Orwell would be proud. |

Whilst I don't like booing in Rugby - I think if this ever comes to fruit, Wasps should be booed onto the pitch & every time they touch the ball.
It would send a clear message to the RFU & any player who took the money to play for them |

So, could I buy the IP from say Orrell, find a sustainable source of funds and enter the Championship with a side based in a stadium, in York while I set up a new home Lincoln. And given a professional Rugby club probably costs North of £4m a year - what is meant by sustainable funds.

Well it's not a statement designed to win over opposition fans, and it hasn't done that!
Waffling on about values from anyone is cringy from Wasps it is amusing.

Technically London Welsh didn't rejoin the leagues. London Welsh Amateur, whom were already in the leagues as a legally separate club, just took on the dissolved clubs name.
