Sound like pure fantasy. Especially the timescale for a 24k stadium, even if by some miracle they did get the money together to build the thing (presumably well north of £50m). The focus surely needs to be on consolidating slowly and sustainably.

Good luck to them though. Would be good to see them as a force again at some point.

Will they just hurry up and merge with Warriors to become Worcester Wasps already. It's the obvious option. I'd give the owners of what's left of Worcester Warriors a wide berth in terms of management mind.

Wasps director and largest shareholder has purchased a controlling stake in Worcester from the Atlas Group. The merger is very much on the cards.

Is there anything left to 'merge' other than the names?
