Note that the Toulouse v Quins game is live on ITV 1.

At the same time the RFU has just done a deal with the existing Premiership clubs in which the clubs get over ?3m per year (about ?3.4m IIRC).
I won't be holding my breath that the Premiership turkeys will vote for Christmas any time soon without parachute deals and the like, which will probably come at the expense of promoted clubs getting access to that money unless the RFU can find even more money.

I await the stony silence that the long respected RFU is known for. Their motto being (in Spanish of course), 'Que ser?, ser?.' (Come on now, sing along children ...)
Watch out for long winded statements, that use fancy words to give the impression that they will look in to it, analyse it from every angle, appoint a committee ... (shades of 'Yes, Minister'), but in reality promise nothing, and DO nothing. Long grass, ball and kick come to mind.
