London Irish poised for update in takeover saga - report

London Irish’s prospective investor Daniel Thomas Loitz is set to provide fans with a “significant update” on his takeover bid of the former Gallagher Premiership side, according to Sky Sports. 

Loitz, a German investor who is director of investment firm Hokulani Ltd, has been in talks with London Irish about a potential takeover of the club, who went into administration in June 2023 and were subsequently suspended from the Premiership.

Sky Sports have reported that Loitz has described these talks as “positive”, and will address fans on Wednesday evening with a “positive update”.Pause

I know little about how to run a business. But it feels to me, two tv shows explain it to my mind.
However if the RFU wanted Alan Sugar as a business partner, they would have the Finger pointed and the ‘Your Fired’.
Elsewhere clubs looking to progress visit a Dragons Den. They cannot offer a profit, or a three year plan, but because someone at the RFU said so, they think they can be a professional sports club.

What worries me in 12 months, the RFU will roll down the steel shutters, and pretend they have got it all sorted, hidden inside their corner shop.
The older I get, the more the RFU leave me confused.
