THE firm in charge of Worcester Warriors' administration says it will do whatever it can to find a solution for the club's future.

Begbies Traynor has been appointed by DCMS as administrators for the stricken club.

The company, which specialises in corporate recovery and restructuring, has put Julie Palmer, Julian Pitts and Andrew Hook in place to oversee WRFC Trading Limited, the company which Worcester Warriors is under.

The trio, working as joint administrators, will now enter into discussions with stakeholders and interested parties to try to come up with a plan for the club's future.

A company spokesperson said: "Julie Palmer, Julian Pitts  and Andrew Hook have been appointed as joint administrators of WRFC Trading Limited on September 27, 2022.

"The joint administrators will be entering into urgent discussions with all interested parties and relevant stakeholders to try and achieve a rescue of the rugby club.

"We appreciate that it has been and remains an extremely difficult time for all parties involved with the club including, players, employees and fans.

"We will endeavour to provide updates whenever we can."

Warriors were put into administration on Monday (September 26) causing them to be suspended from all competitions.

RFU bosses wanted evidence of a “credible plan to take the club forward,” but said they had received no response.

Worcester’s debts total more than than £25million, including at least £6m in unpaid tax.

Owners Colin Goldring and Jason Whittingham have also been accused of asset-stripping the club which they deny.

Julie Palmer, from Begbies Traynor, added: "I am an optimistic person by nature.

"I have always got my restructuring hat on to see if we can find a rescue mechanism.

"We will be working as hard as we possibly can to try and achieve that.

"I am superbly impressed by the quality of the stadium, the facilities and the professionalism of the staff.

"I am hoping that anybody who is thinking of buying this would be similarly impressed. There is a really good club here."

Begbies Traynor has taken on a number of high-profile cases since it was formed in 1989.

Most notably, the firm took on Wigan Athletic when the football club went into administration in 2019.

Partners from the firm were able to clear all football creditors and to find a buyer for the club to stave off the threat of liquidation, which would have seen a historic community football club disappear from the English Football League.
