Bill Sweeney and Tom Ilube, executives of the Rugby Football Union (RFU), are facing a possible no confidence vote as grassroots clubs rally support for their dismissal. A motion requires 100 signatories to trigger a special meeting that could result in their ousting by late February. The controversy centers around Sweeney’s substantial pay increase, including a bonus, despite the RFU reporting significant operating losses and plans to cut staff. Employee dissatisfaction with leadership compensation has also surfaced, adding to calls for resignation from former RFU officials.
