We are aware of recent speculation in the national press raising concerns regarding London Irish’s financial future and their ability to fulfil their Gallagher Premiership Rugby fixture against the Exeter Chiefs at the Gtech Community Stadium this weekend.  

While this uncertainty persists, we are conscious that London Irish and Exeter Chiefs’ fans are making travel plans and we want to make it clear that Brentford Football Club remains fully committed to hosting Saturday’s fixture. 

We will continue to work with London Irish to ensure all matchday operations are in place to enable the fixture to go ahead if London Irish are able to fulfil it.
