Worcester Warriors today sacked head coach Richard Hill.

Hill has paid the price for a disappointing season at Sixways which has seen Worcester flirt with relegation in the Premiership.
With London Welsh's top-flight relegation confirmed at the weekend, the Warriors have decided to axe the former Bristol boss.
Hill was brought to Sixways in May 2010 in the wake of Mike Ruddock's sacking with Warriors having been relegated to the Championship.
The former England scrum-half was charged with returning Worcester to the top tier of English rugby at the first time of asking, a challenge he achieved with a play-off final victory over Cornish Pirates.
However, failure to even hint at Heineken Cup qualification has done for the coach.
