ReSolve Advisory have been appointed as Administrators according to Accountancy Daily. That will come as a relief to some who were concerned that the Worcester Administrators would be appointed.

Andrew Pepper is their Head of Business Restructuring, a Chartered Accountant and an Insolvency Practitioner. No we wait ....

I hear several Irish players were at Kingsholm yesterday.

EPCR STATEMENT: 2023/24 CHAMPIONS CUP
FRIDAY, JUNE 9TH 2023

Following the RFU’s decision to suspend London Irish from all competitions, EPCR can clarify that regrettably, the club will not compete in the 2023/24 Champions Cup.

As Bristol Bears are the highest-ranked club in the Gallagher Premiership league table at the conclusion of the regular season which did not qualify for the 2023/24 Champions Cup, they will now replace London Irish in next season’s tournament.

The formats for the 2023/24 Champions Cup and EPCR Challenge Cup will be announced shortly, as will details of the pool draws for both tournaments.

Jordan group buys London Irish out of administration

Quote
London Irish Rugby Club have been bought out of administration by a consortium led by former Formula 1 team owner and businessman Eddie Jordan.

In June 2023 London Irish were forced out of the Premiership because of unpaid wages and shortly after put into administration by former owner Mick Crossan with debts of about £30m.

They were punished after missing a deadline to make those payments or complete a takeover, and as a result are currently not allowed to play in any league.

Jordan's group, called 'The Jordan Associates', says it is targeting a "swift return" to competing professionally as well as promising to "introduce an innovative fan ownership model", offering supporters the opportunity to invest in the club.

"The primary goal of the new ownership is to return London Irish Rugby Club to the pinnacle of international professional club rugby, aiming for a swift return to top-flight competition," it said.

"The Jordan Associates team will now turn its attention to negotiating a full and sustainable return for London Irish to competitive rugby, hand-in-hand with London Irish's supporter base."

I wonder if Eddie has any plans to pay back the £11m odd they had in Covid loans on his way to the "pinnacle of international professional club rugby"?

At least the DCMS now know who to pursue

Apparently they want to join the URC but be based in London. Can't see the RFU allowing it
