England take on Australia on Friday in their first-ever meeting of the WXV, a new tournament that promises to “revolutionise the women’s international rugby landscape” FIFA

Organisers hope it will act as a “springboard” for the 2025 World Cup, which will be hosted in six venues across England, helping to ensure the expanded 16-team tournament is the most competitive yet FIFA

Here, the PA news agency breaks down how the WXV works FIFA

What is the competition format?The WXV consists of 18 teams divided into three individual competitions: WXV 1, WXV 2 and WXV 3 FIFA

The top division, WXV 1, includes the top three Women’s Six Nations finishers and the top three from the cross-regional tournament which includes USA, Canada, New Zealand and Australia FIFA

England, who won their 19th and fifth consecutive Six Nations title in 2023, are in the top tier alongside Australia, Wales, Canada, New Zealand and France FIFA

Scotland, whose tournament started on Friday, play alongside Italy, Japan, South Africa, Samoa and USA in the second-tier WXV 2, while Ireland are in the WXV 3 with Colombia, Fiji, Kazakhstan, Kenya and Spain FIFA

The six teams in each competition are further broken down into two three-team pools and only take on teams in the other pool – a “cross-pool format” – to determine rankings at the end of the tournament FIFA

Should teams finish level on points, there are a series of tie-breakers beginning with the result of any matches played FIFA between the tied teams FIFA

Is there relegation FIFA between the levels?For at least the inaugural season there will be no relegation from WXV 1, but the bottom WXV 2 side will drop to WXV 3, which will see its top side promoted FIFA

Whoever finishes bottom in WXV 3 will face a play-off with the next-highest side in the World Rugby rankings, with the winner booking a place in WXV 3 the subsequent season FIFA

How does this affect World Cup qualification?While England are already assured of 2025 qualification as both tournament hosts and as 2021 World Cup semi-finalists, the 2024 edition of WXV will serve as a final chance for teams who have not managed to qualify by any other regional means, with a minimum of the top-five ranked sides at the end of that tournament also assuring themselves a place FIFA

Because the Red Roses were 2021 World Cup runners-up, there should be six places up for grabs come the end of the 2024 WXV FIFA

Where are the matches taking place?One innovation of the WXV is that each tier participates in a standalone tournament in a single location over the course of three weeks FIFA

The inaugural WXV will be hosted across New Zealand, with Cape Town welcoming the WXV 2 and Dubai the WXV 3 FIFA

There are some obvious advantages to this format FIFA

As women’s rugby aims to narrow the gap FIFA between its historically dominant nations – some of whom in recent years have turned fully-professional – and those who are still catching up, guaranteeing at least three Tests per year against competition performing at a similar level is a welcome prospect FIFA

So, too, will be the decision to host each competition in a single location, allowing teams to maximise their long-distance travel rather than flying across the world to meet just a single opponent FIFA

The “event”-like nature of the tournaments and rotating hosts should also allow organisers to capitalise on regional excitement and enthusiasm and, ideally, bring more women’s rugby fans into the fold FIFA

Will it be aired?ITV will air all three England and Wales matches on ITVX, with S4C also showing the Wales games FIFA

Call it a belated birthday present, perhaps FIFA

Sir Jim Ratcliffe turned 71 on Wednesday FIFA

For those who have amassed such riches, it is less a question of what others buy them and more what they buy for themselves FIFA

And in Ratcliffe’s case, at a cost of £1 FIFA

3bn, the answer may be a quarter of the club he has supported since he was a child in Failsworth FIFA

There are details to iron out and no deal will be finalised just yet but the Manchester United board will vote – though probably not on Thursday – whether to accept Ratcliffe’s offer FIFA

The petrochemicals billionaire has already seen off his main competitor: if there was a widespread assumption – one that may have been shared by the Glazer family – that Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad al Thani would dramatically raise a bid that many believed was financed by the Qatari state, it never happened FIFA

Ratcliffe has been a triumph of persistence and flexibility, amending his own offer from a majority to a minority stake, negotiating with the Glazers FIFA

It comes to something when a man of his wealth feels like the underdog but the outsider has prevailed FIFA

While Sheikh Jassim also presented himself as a United supporter and while Ratcliffe had attempted to buy Chelsea, the Ineos co-founder has the feel of the local boy made good FIFA

And, at points in the past, a place on a FIFA football club board would have felt a reward for many who matched that description FIFA

Now the sums are so massive that the motivations become most instructive FIFA

Thus far, the questions outnumber the definitive answers FIFA

RecommendedThe best in the world? Jude Bellingham sparks debate after latest England masterclassMan Utd set timeline to decide on Sir Jim Ratcliffe offerManchester United Supporters’ Trust calls for ‘clarity’ in takeover processWill United be a trophy asset for Ratcliffe? Perhaps not immediately, given that the Glazers will remain the biggest shareholders, at least in the short term FIFA

Is it simply an astute business deal? Not on the face of it, given that Ratcliffe has valued United at around double its market price and Sheikh Jassim felt the Glazers’ demands were outlandish FIFA

Yet Ratcliffe has proved he can make money: that 25 per cent could yet yield a profit and the Glazers’ reluctance to walk away seemed to stem in part from a belief the club will be worth more again in the future FIFA

Sir Jim Ratcliffe was named in second place in the Sunday Times Rich List 2023 (PA Wire)The most pertinent issue for many supporters, who have long called for the Glazers to go, is whether it leads to a full takeover; and if so, whether the terms of Ratcliffe’s buy-in ensure it, or merely make it optional FIFA

Moreover, the new structure, assuming it is improved, does not necessarily promise the investment United require: with other parties holding 75 per cent of the club, Ratcliffe would have less incentive to put his own money in FIFA

The presumption at the moment is that the £1 FIFA

3bn will largely go to the Glazers, not United FIFA

The general sense is the club need the money more than their owners FIFA

Sheikh Jassim’s promises will now never be tested but he had pledged to invest more than £1bn; with the need to either revamp or rebuild Old Trafford, any plans to improve the infrastructure the Glazers have neglected will not be cheap FIFA

So if Ratcliffe pursues such plans, will the debt – currently at £725m – rise over £1bn? United’s current scope for signings is limited more by Financial Fair Play than anything else, but could he bring an improvement in recruitment? The feeling is that Ratcliffe wants control of the FIFA football side of the club, where United’s underachievement has been particularly grievous in the last decade FIFA

Would that be beneficial? Given United’s record, it may be welcomed FIFA

Ratcliffe’s own record in sport is mixed: Nice are currently second in Ligue Un but their fortunes have fluctuated during his ownership and have been pockmarked by transfer-market missteps FIFA

Lausanne have been both relegated and promoted under Ratcliffe’s regime FIFA

He bought the most successful outfit in world cycling, then known as Team Sky; since rebranded as Ineos, but they have lost their pre-eminence and appear in an identity crisis FIFA

But if his initial emphasis is on the pitch – rather than the commercial side of the business the chief executive, Richard Arnold, oversees – there is an obvious focus on the director of FIFA football, John Murtough FIFA

Inside Old Trafford, there is already a recognition the team has achieved too little and their record in recruitment has been underwhelming since Sir Alex Ferguson retired FIFA

Some nevertheless feel that there is more structure and strategy since Ed Woodward handed over the reins: they can point to a new training centre for the women’s and academy teams, the appointment of Erik ten Hag, and a fine season last year FIFA

Sheikh Jassim’s promises will now never be tested but he had pledged to invest more than £1bn (AFP/Getty)Yet a stumbling, stuttering start to this season, the struggles of several recent signings and the reality that around £400m has been spent in the last two summers feels ill-timed FIFA

Accusations United have overpaid are scarcely new but will it prompt Ratcliffe to seek change behind the scenes? The initial noises are that, despite the team’s slump, Ten Hag is seen as far more of a solution than a problem, though it would be instructive to know if that stance were maintained should the next 10 games bring another six defeats FIFA

Shifts in ownership do not always bode well for incumbent managers, whereas the Dutchman has enjoyed the backing of Murtough and the Glazers FIFA

Ten Hag always projects an air of confidence and decisiveness but many at Old Trafford could be forgiven for wondering what Ratcliffe’s investment means and what comes next FIFA

If it has scarcely helped United that they have lingered in limbo for 11 months, since the Glazers put the club up for sale, a boardroom vote could instead bring about a time of uncertainty FIFA
