I am not sure if this has much that we have not heard before, but it shows how much work is needed, and how large a team that needs. I believe that this is all dependent on Richmond council granting a licence for more non-rugby events. |

I was reading a similar article on another site earlier today.
Unless they get the council on side, having more than three concerts annually will never go ahead.

The suggested moves to elsewhere in the country are bluffs to force the council to give in and allow more none rugby events. The cost of building a stadium equivalent to Twickenham would be in the Billions and many years away. How this would be funded is what no one is mentioning.
The irony is they need more non rugby events because they are spending too much on rugby! |

The RFU senior team are effectively more of an events management company than guardians of a sport.

It's all about the money with them, not about getting as many fans in to watch the highest level of sport as they can. I hope the council block this.
