The "proper" rugby season start son Frioday night so the club has taken the rather odd step of unsettling us all by issuing a statement about ownership. One can only assume something is about to break ...
Many of us will have forgottenn that Glaws went on the market back in April with the p[rice of £25m being touted. Always thought it would be more but presumably that comes with some hefty player contracts to honour.
Anyway this is what the club has officially said today. Make of it what you will ...
"Following the club's statement earlier this year with regard to conversations with third parties and ownership of the club, we feel now is the right time to provide an update on the situation.
"We have been and are currently having positive conversations with a number of interested parties that have approached the club. Naturally these conversations can take some time to complete, but we are dealing with them as a priority.
"When they conclude, we will issue a statement announcing our intentions with regard to moving forward with new investors or continuing to operate under the current ownership model.
"What has been most pleasing is that, throughout this process, we have had zero impact on 'business as usual' and look forward to the start of the Aviva Premiership season, after what was an incredibly successful hosting of four Rugby World Cup games at Kingsholm."
