kempston, they've done that already with particular concern to the way the Wasps/Worcester debacle emerged....

With regards to recent other "decisions". I'll think you'll find the MPs would champion the Tackle Height change as a good thing, due diligence over competition structure changes whilst annoying are the bi-product of certain situations like Clubs going bust up and down the League structure and I doubt that MPs would know which way was up on that subject.

1forTD agree the RFU did indeed misjudge the support of the Community Game but unless they shift some of the Cash from the Premiership Agreement funding back to the Community Game things will still wither on the vine, the most recent "survey" asked for 5 Top "needs" for Clubs I bet 100% want more funding, more on the ground RFU staff (CRCS and RDOs won't return)

MPs would have them before a select committee.

Maybe time to write to our MPs and put the RFU under outside scrutiny?

They were before a select committee last November. Have you noticed how things have changed since then? No, me neither.

My MP wouldn't be interested anyway. He's only really interested in turning a blind eye to Boris's behaviour and bullying civil servants although he does have a bit more time on his hands now it seems. Asking people like this to speak out about self-interested incompetence would be like asking turkeys to vote for Christmas.

I agree.

On your first point the MPs interest it's happening already.
