Description: Simon Halliday, a former England rugby international, takes the reader on a roller-coaster trip along Twickenham's corridors of power and lifts the lid on the departure of not one, but two chief executives, as the game's rulers fought among themselves for control of the RFU. He is scathing aboutEngland's descent from World Cup heroes to zeroes after proving they were the best in 2003. He slams the game's rulers for driving Sir Clive Woodward out of the game and for eschewing the opportunity to welcome him back to Twickenham a few years later.
