Craig, who oversaw last season’s historic treble which included a first league title in 29 years, believes Dyson’s investment will strengthen Bath further.<\/p>\n
He added: “James understands Bath Rugby first and foremost as a supporter and a friend. His family has stood behind the club for decades and it always felt inevitable that our paths would align in this way.<\/p>\n
“I will continue to run Bath Rugby and together we will strengthen its foundations, realise the new stadium and build the club for generations to come.”<\/p>\n
The move was welcomed by Prem Rugby bosses. <\/p>\n
“This is great news for Bath Rugby and their loyal and dedicated fans,” said chief executive Simon Massie-Taylor. <\/p>\n
“This announcement is testament to the stewardship of Bruce Craig and his leadership team at the club and confirms just how attractive Prem Rugby now is to investors.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
