Rugby-Worcester relegated from the Premiership after entering administration

(Reuters) - Worcester Warriors have been suspended from the Premiership for the remainder of the season and will be relegated to the second tier after entering administration last month, England's Rugby Football Union (RFU) said on Thursday.

Worcester, who were served with a winding-up order over unpaid tax reportedly worth six million pounds ($6.70 million), went into administration after failing to meet a RFU deadline to prove they could operate amid financial difficulties.
