[QUOTE="Which Tyler, post: 1131214, member: 73592"] Gotta say - it sounds like it was the RFU's fault on Wasps and Wuss because they didn't do anything, and now it's the RFU's fault on LIrish because the RFU did the thing. Wasps took a gamble, which was failing before Covid hit (though not fatally), and Covid massively affected that and made it fatal. Wuss were bought by cowboys because the RFU didn't do the due diligence that they weren't allowed to do. LIrish have failed because their owner wants to sell up, and to sell to cowboys who are failing the RFU's new powers of due diligence. Anyone claiming that both Wuss and LIrish are the RFU's fault is cherry picking their facts to fit their preconceived opinion. IMO, anyone actively blaming the RFU for any of these 3, hasn't been paying attention. Generally, the same people thinking that the RFU are Machievallian geniuses pulling the strings from behind the scenes are the same people who think the RFU couldn't organise a pi$$-up in a brewery.
