Is a rugby club in danger of becoming an autocratic place when the chairman decides to put the word 'executive' in front of his title? Following the management changes at Bath Rugby, here are a few thoughts from my column in the Bath Chronicle.

Tom Bradshaw: I am a journalist, lecturer, broadcaster and author. Specialising in sport, particularly rugby union, I work for a range of organisations including BBC Radio and The Times. Other titles and websites I have written for include the Times Literary Supplement, The Guardian (London), The Independent (London), The Daily News (Durban), The Star (Johannesburg), The Rugby Paper, PA and SArugby.com. I have twice been named Sports Journalist of the Year at the EDF Energy South West Media Awards. I have worked across the globe. I am Senior Lecturer in Sports Journalism at the University of Gloucestershire, where I designed and established its BA degree in Sports Journalism. I have run the university's wider Journalism department and I deliver research papers both in the UK and overseas on media ethics and media technology. I also hold posts at the University of Brighton and Southampton Solent University. My latest books are 'Sports Journalism - The State of Play' and 'Is the BBC in Peril?'.
