Exactly who was it that couldn't be accomodated on the 21st! Maybe its me being cynical but it seems very much like the RFU are trying to drag this thing out until we get to a point where there'll be no option but to leave things as they are because it'll be too close to the season kick-off. To me it seems very cut and dry. LW want to move to a stadium (which does meet minimum capacity criteria) because their own is not big enough. The stadium will not belong to LW and they will not have primacy of tenancy. Just like err Saracens, Wasps, Sale, and London Irish. LW only want to do what is already being done by teams currently in the Prem so whats the issue? Personally i don't like the idea of moving a club 60 miles to a new home, but technically they're not doing anything that hasn't been or isn't still being done.

Can we be more specific as to what criteria weren't met?
