The problem is that since Mark Evans invented Big Game there has been no other changes in the last 10 years and now everyone is really struggling for sponsorship/partnership. I cannot see any vision from anyone. Whoever pushed through the increase in salary cap last time sounded in my opinion the death knell for premiership rugby clubs surviving in their present financial format.  Owners all want money back and this would help them, but I disagree that it is good news and I personally gave up on formula 1 when CVC got involved as it ceased to be a real sport. It just confirms that Premiership does not have clubs anymore just business trying to break even at worst or make a profit at best. So forget membership, debentures just a Season ticket or not.  How it will fit in with England and the rfu I have no idea but for my money these guys are only interested in one thing themselves and maximising their profit. Quins have tried to wrap it up in Community and Foundation but this is is Very very sad.
