Whole Game Union table 11 amendments to governanceNottingham chair calls for ‘fundamental change’
The rebel clubs who called for Bill Sweeney’s resignation as chief executive of the Rugby Football Union say they want to see significant changes to the way the union operates within the next three months despite failing to win sufficient support for their motion of no confidence at Thursday’s special general meeting (SGM).
Alistair Bow, chair of Nottingham and co-chair of the Whole Game Union who forced the SGM, said the clubs now expect to see words put into action after Sweeney survived the vote on a turnout of just 54% of the membership. The Whole Game Union has already tabled 11 proposals for further governance changes before the union’s annual general meeting (AGM) on Monday 30 June.
