No confidence motion tabled for special general meetingNottingham chair’s open letter condemns ‘severe failures’
English grassroots clubs have been urged to respond to the “severe failures” of leading officials by voting in favour of Bill Sweeney’s removal as chief executive of the Rugby Football Union (RFU) at a special general meeting (SGM) on Thursday.
It is 25 years since the RFU last faced an SGM and Alistair Bow – the chair of Nottingham Rugby and co-chair of the Whole Game Union, which represents the wider English club game – has issued an open letter calling on member clubs to back a motion of no confidence in Sweeney as the first step in reforming the current administration.
