Francis Baron Interview

Can't replicate here (print copy) but worth catching later when TRP puts on general release.
Looks at RFU finances and also the involvement of CVC. Seems to be a 3 part interview over a number of weeks. An interesting read.

Just been reading from the delayed publication. Interesting that he still believes that promotion/ relegation is fundamental for the sport

Yes and that the CVC investment is not good for the sport. I hadn't realised they normally sold on after 5 years and in this case there is no control who they might sell to.

I had assumed that they had been in F1. Wonder if SISU only intended to be with CCFC for 5 years?
