You would think there has to be a big shake up at club level in RU, as thats too many clubs gone bust in one season or so. Irrelevant of rich benefactors / sponsorship deals etc, generally crowds arent much better than RL, so they are charging a massive amount to go and watch, or someone is happy to take a loss to the arse pocket
I did a quick Google:

The Rec is tiny; I used to live near Bath. There's a waiting list to get a season ticket.
The Rec is being completely revamped to convert it from a temporary structure to a permanent stadium so there must be money coming into the club from somewhere
