- 167 staff, including all players, told they have lost their jobs
- Wasps are now set for relegation from the Premiership
Wasps have entered administration with 167 staff, including all players, made redundant and the club will be relegated from the Premiership at the end of the season.
The Coventry-based club had indicated it would appoint administrators “within days” when it was forced to cancel Saturday’s match against Exeter because there were insufficient funds to operate last Wednesday. The club was suspended indefinitely from the Premiership by the Rugby Football Union after the announcement.
