2007–08 Premiership Rugby
The 2007–08 Guinness Premiership was the 21st season of the top flight of the English domestic rugby union competitions, played between September 2007 and May 2008. Round 1 included the London Double Header at Twickenham, between the four London teams. Due to the 2007 Rugby World Cup the season started a week later than usual, as England were trying to defend their title. Leeds Tykes, which renamed themselves Leeds Carnegie shortly after the 2006–07 season, were promoted from National Division One 2006–07, taking the place of Northampton Saints who were relegated. During the course of the season, London Wasps went from 10th in the league during October, to beat Leicester in the Guinness Premiership Final at Twickenham on 31 May 2008.
