There are two pieces on their board - one by a female basically reading out a statement (sounds like) and the second is a bloke talking and kind of answering questions - both BBC people.

Thanks for posting.  Little Wasps content but what there is is positive if linked to WW comeback possibilities.

Basically, Atlas, who Holland helped buy Sixways & WW, have gone into a pre-packed administration. Leaving Loxwood (CH) and "the local business community" owning everything. Some nice words about bring elite rugby back to 6 ways & making the location profitable (and keeping employees employed). Also confirms that the RFU have been advised that WW want to join the second tier

He?s the accidental owner. I imagine he?s desperate for someone to take it off his hands.

I doubt there was much accidental about it.
