Worcester Warriors have been suspended from the Premiership

The contracts of the players and staff of the Warriors will be terminated.

The club has been suspended from all competition for not paying their taxes.

The WRFC players and staff should be wound up according to the judge.

The petition against WRFC Trading has been put on hold.

As a result of the train strike, the joint hearing for both companies, held at the Royal Courts of Justice in London, was broadcasted online.

There was no representation at the meeting.

The debts at WRFC are still outstanding.

The club and the ground are owned by WRFC trading.

Some of the land around the ground is owned by other companies.

The administrators will deal with that part of the process.

The contracts of the players, backroom staff, administrative staff, and the women's squad are no longer valid.

The four players who went out on loan to Bath are now free agents, so they can sign for any club.

Some staff are still owed money, while others are not.

Warriors may have their suspension extended until the end of the season in order to avoid being demoted to the Championship.

If a buyer is found by the middle of this month, they can still stay in the top flight.

A consortium led by former Warriors chief executive Jim O'Toole is one of two groups that are in talks with the company.

Warriors' tale of woe

How did Warriors come to this?

The journey to become a force in English club rugby was started by local millionaire boiler manufacturer Cecil Duckworth.

The funds were injected and they led to a promotion to the top flight.

Warriors have been in the top flight for 16 years and have never finished higher than eighth.

The long-time benefactor reduced his involvement when the company he was associated with took over.

He was part of the new board until he died.

In October of last year, the club was sold for the second time, to a four-man consortium, but he left in June of this year, leaving Whittingham and Goldring to run the club.
