Former England rugby star Paul Sackey says he will be devastated if the two clubs with whom he made his name disappear.
Sackey won a European Cup and two Premiership titles with Wasps, who went bust in October. Before that, he lifted English rugby’s equivalent of the FA Cup with London Irish, a club at grave risk of suspension from next season’s top flight.
The winger averaged a try every other game for his country and was England’s top try scorer when last the World Cup was played in France. But now he fears the glittering legacy he and his club mates left at Wasps and Irish will be erased.
