Evening StandardAs Francis Baron, the former chief executive of the Rugby Football Union, arrives for our meeting, he receives a text: "Dear Francis, If my information is correct, you are now back in charge again at Twickenham which is marvellous news. Everyone at Wellington wishes you every success."
Dr Anthony Seldon, the Master of Wellington College who had sent the text, was not joking. But, as Baron scrolls through his mobile, he smiles, saying: "It's amazing the number of people that have been telling me, 'You've got to go back'. People like Dr Seldon even assume I've gone back. It is all very funny."
