the extent of the fall out between debbie jevans and the rfu hierarchy has started to emerge since the england rugby 2015 chief executive suddenly quit last friday as sportsmail revealed, jevans had become so exasperated with the increasing level of interference in her forensic planning of the rugby world cup that she felt she couldn’t work at twickenham any longer but it’s now understood that the rfu had become equally fed up with the way jevans always demanded her own way — as in her previous role as director of sport at the london olympics — and didn’t properly accommodate the host nation position at a world cup where the financial guarantee stops with them debbie jevans resigned as chief executive of england's world cup 2015 organising committee last friday  and although jevans resigned of her own accord, the rfu made no attempt to change her mind the crucial relationship between rfu chief executive ian ritchie and jevans had began to unravel over the last few months and culminated in a series of huge rows in ritchie’s office at twickenham last week this led rfu chairman bill beaumont to tell a member of staff: ‘we’ve got a major problem here’ it was ritchie who was responsible for signing the highly combative jevans, whom he knew from his role as ceo of the all england club where jevans is an influential committee member the exact flashpoint that forced jevans to resign less than six months before the start of the tournament is not known but staffing levels at er 2015 are known to concern the rfu with nearly 200 already on the er 2015 payroll the relationship between rfu chief ian ritchie and jevans had began to unravel over the last few months  sources say ritchie walked through er2015’s expanded office space recently, wondering what the huge army of employees actually did the 1991 world cup, hosted by five unions, had been organised by less than 25 full time staff — not many more than turned up on the er 2015 team recently to arrange a single fanzone the split with ritchie also left jevans isolated as she made no attempt to embrace the rugby fraternity or commercial agencies like img certainly, the clubs regarded her as very difficult to deal with — unplayable some even said also, ritchie is not the jovial, happy go lucky ceo he portrays on the surface but a ruthless, cold eyed businessman who has seen off jevans in the same ruthless way he brought her in to replace paul vaughan  ritchie’s desire to curb er2015 excess and bring the organising committee into the bosom of the rfu can be seen by the installation of rfu finance director stephen brown as the new er2015 managing director jevans had previously held the role of director of sport at the london olympics  the international rugby board have kept their distance from the jevans walk out but they have to take some of the blame for the crazy structure of the rugby world cup where they receive an £80million guarantee but still keep sponsorship, corporate hospitality and tv rights while leaving the host nation and the organising committee to sell the tickets and fight for recognition jevans has made it clear she will not be explaining the personal reasons behind her departure any time soon the international rugby board, headed by bernard lapasset, have kept their distance from the jevans saga  it hasn’t helped the strained relationship between the premier league and the fa over homegrown player numbers that the clubs kept fa chairman greg dyke waiting for one hour and 20 minutes outside their piccadilly meeting last week dyke had prepared a presentation but wasn’t given the opportunity to address the clubs fa chairman greg dyke was not given the opportunity to address the premier league clubs last week  eden hazard, chelsea’s world class forward who shuns the trappings of a superstar, has re organised his representative management in keeping with his low profile image hazard is having his management run by family members — apart from former chelsea executive andy dart looking after commercial opportunities chelsea star eden hazard is having his management run by family members  nike’s signing 18 months ago of new england star harry kane — well before his breakthrough for club and country — has increased their stranglehold on the england squad the swoosh stable also includes wayne rooney, daniel sturridge, raheem sterling, joe hart, ross barkley and danny welbeck nike signed up tottenham and england star harry kane to their brand 18 months ago
