Quote:The belt-tightening climate may also hit the RFU council and other privileged members, who have all enjoyed free tickets, lunches, and accommodation at England matches. So far, the council has rejected attempts to cut back on their match-day benefits, to the frustration of Twickenham insiders, while some former presidents were far from enamoured at plans to move them from an over-populated Royal Box during the Six Nations. But the RFU is determined not to become embroiled in a civil war with the likes of Baron and the former presidents.

How many folk we talking here? 50? 100? 150?
If sold commercially, what they are receiving must be worth at least £500 per head. So if only 100 folk riding this gravy train, then £50,000 revenue lost each home match which would provide 2 development officers at the grass roots.
