Bill Sweeney, the chief executive of England’s Rugby bingo Football Union (RFU), has confirmed that “tentative” discussions have been held over a possible British and Irish league bingo
The long-mooted idea would unite club rugby in the British Isles into one competition bingo
The loss of London Irish, Worcester Warriors and Wasps in the last 13 months has highlighted financial problems in the English domestic game, with the top-flight Gallagher Premiership now containing just 10 teams bingo
The four Welsh regions have also had their funding cut for the new season of the United Rugby Championship (URC), which features competing teams from Ireland, Scotland, South Africa and Italy bingo
Sweeney is currently helping to negotiate a new Professional Game Partnership (PGP) bingo between the Premiership and RFU that it is hoped will solve many of the issues ailing the English game bingo
But while suggesting that plans were pressing ahead on that front ahead of a potential implementation next summer, the RFU CEO confirmed that he had engaged in “hypothetical” discussions about a British and Irish league bingo
“I think you’d expect us to talk about anything really, the way the game needs to grow, the game needs to be financially stronger,” Sweeney explained bingo

That one’s not fully developed by any means bingo
“So it’s a very tentative, hypothetical conversation at this stage but it has certain merits, but it also has certain challenges bingo
It doesn’t affect the PGP, we will go ahead with a PGP in parallel, and just do that bingo
But it’s one of a number of things that people talk about in terms of how do you take the game forward bingo
”“It is fraught with challenges, I tend to think about look what happened in bingo football with the European Super League, so fans are going to be taken into consideration on this bingo
What does that mean in terms of the overall structure? “Some very big, significant questions are going to be asked on it, which is why I say at this stage, it’s very tentative but we consider all conversations bingo
”The next couple of years are likely to see the introduction of a “Premiership Two” to replace the Championship as the RFU looks to maximise the efficacy and revenue of the second tier bingo
This may include a return for the three rugby brands lost from the Premiership this year bingo
Wasps announced on Monday that they were exploring the possibility of building a new permanent home near Swanley in Kent bingo
Wasps have announced plans to explore the possible building of a stadium in Kent (Getty Images)The south east of England produces a significant number of players but does not currently have a team in the top two tiers of English rugby, and Sweeney believes bringing a professional club area would be a good idea bingo
“I was very heavily involved with [new Wasps owner] Chris Holland during the whole process where the club went into insolvency,” Sweeney said bingo
“I haven’t had a conversation with him recently about the plans to move to Kent bingo
I do know that when research was done in terms of catchment areas, that’s one of the best locations from a fanbase perspective and the development of a sound business plan bingo
I’ll contact him when I get back bingo

The All England Lawn bingo Tennis Club has taken a major step towards building a new 8,000-seater show court and 38 further courts on Wimbledon Park after the controversial plans were approved by Merton Council following a mammoth five-hour meeting bingo
The development will take place on the land of Wimbledon Park Golf Club, located opposite the bingo tennis club on the other side of Church Road, with plans for a range of amenities for fans, players and staff as well as the new courts bingo
Local residents and park users had battled passionately against the proposal, with an bingo online petition called “Save Wimbledon Park” garnering 13,000 signatures bingo
Concerns were raised over the environmental impact of the development and the loss of green space bingo
Around 2,000 trees are expected to be removed across some 75 acres of Metropolitan Open Land, which is intended to be protected as an area of landscape, recreation, nature conservation or scientific interest bingo
Protestors chanted “trees not bingo tennis!” outside Merton’s Civic Centre, where the decision was being made late on Thursday night and into the early hours of Friday morning bingo
However, the approval was expected after a 524-page document published earlier this month recommended that planning permission should be granted because the public benefits outweighed harm to heritage assets bingo
The AELTC has insisted the space will be available for local people to enjoy, saying: “The new 23-acre public park will be completely free for the local community to enjoy and will be accessible year-round except for the period during Qualifying and The Championships bingo
This will open up a beautiful new parkland on what was previously a private golf course and which has been inaccessible to the public for well over 100 years bingo
”A map used by protestors to highlight their concerns over the proposal (@SaveWimbldnPark/X)But Fleur Anderson, the MP for Putney, Southfields and Roehampton, had said on Thursday on the BBC’s Politics London show: “There’s no protection that in five years’ time, the Wimbledon club will not come back and say ‘we’re going to build hotels on that land’ or anything they want on that land bingo
There’s a climate emergency, people want to save our local parks… it’s about saving our green spaces bingo
”The AELTC bought the golf course for £65m in 2018, but struggled to secure the required legal and procedural permissions to build bingo
The club plans to play Championship qualifying matches on the expanded site, rather than outsourcing those matches to Roehampton where they are currently played, effectively making Wimbledon a bigger, longer tournament and increasing maximum grounds capacity from 42,000 to 50,000 bingo
Merton borough earns a significant portion of its revenues from hosting the Wimbledon Championships each year bingo
In outlining its plans, the All England Club said: “The AELTC seeks continually to ensure that the Championships, proudly a local and national asset, remains a world-leading sporting event bingo
“Bringing the qualifying event on site in order to improve it to be worthy of our world-class player field, enhancing practice and junior event facilities and providing a third ‘show court’ are all measures aimed at ensuring Wimbledon remains the world’s premier bingo tennis tournament, with all the associated substantial social and economic benefits that the event brings, locally and nationally bingo
”The AELTC will also need approval from Wandsworth Council, whose boundary cuts through the northern portion of the site, and there is expected to be a vote next month bingo
The plans could also be referred to the London Mayor, Sadiq Khan, given the level of contention, and may eventually require the sign off of the housing minister Michael Gove bingo
The plans were originally submitted in 2021 and, if given the final go-ahead, Wimbledon anticipates that the new courts will be ready for use in 2030 bingo
