Former English Star Faces Backlash For “Disgusting Take” On Premiership Clubs Financial Woes

Former England and Wasps star turned BT Present Lawrence Dallaglio has come under major fire following his take on Wasps current financial situation.

Speaking on the highly popular show ‘Rugby Tonight’ Dallaglio argued that Wasps should not face automatic relegation in the same way Worcester Warriors have due to them being a bigger brand.

“They [RFU] will say that any club that’s in administration has to go the same way as Worcester,” Dallaglio said.

“But the reality is, do you want to lose one of the biggest brands in club rugby, in world rugby and one of the brands that’s been one of the most successful sides in the Premiership? Let’s hope it doesn’t come to that.”

These comments have caught the ire of many online with twitter in particular being a buzz of activity.
