Sport England has cut funding for men's and women's rugby union by £1m-plus because of a "disappointing" drop in player numbers.

The reduction, which brings the total below £30m for 2009-2013, was agreed with the Rugby Football Union (RFU).

"You're not doing very well therefore can't have funding"


shouldn't it be more like
"You're not doing very well, how about some extra funding to help you out?"
