CVC lawyer's have been in touch with The Rugby Paper.

Some telling corrections.

It begs the question why the Six Nations could not have done all this without the CVC investment and retained the 1/7th share and been in even more money going forward?

CVC will make money on this. I guess the 6 nations are planning they'll make more money on CVC's coat tails.

I worked in F1 during most of CVC's ownership. They were generally a silent partner getting the maximum bang for their buck.

F1 had Bernie making good use of CVC's money.

Rugby seems to be using it to pay off debt, as opposed to invest.

But, obviously, I am not privy to precise details. I could be as wrong as the original article.

Not going to lie, when I opened my brother's copy before the England A game & saw the massive half page retraction article I cracked a big smile.

Hopefully they will try to be a touch more accurate with their "old man shouts at clouds" articles in future.
