Rugby Football Union would slide into months of 'rancour and disruption' if a rebel motion to oust chief executive Bill Sweeney passes.

A collective of clubs, led by those in the second -tier Championship, have forced a referendum on Sweeney 's leadership.

The RFU has tabled a rival motion, which promises to decentralise decision-making and rebuild regional support and funding for clubs.
