Premier League footballers will miss Richard Scudamore. In his tenure, average annual player pay has risen from £400,000 a year to £2.6m, which, coincidentally, is the same figure he now earns in the executive chairman post he is quitting.

Scudamore more than anyone turned Premier League into a global phenom. The PL made £25m a year from all foreign rights combined when he took over. That's now £1.1 BILLION a year and rising. Because of his sales strategy. And yes, he's fed up of big club greed.

Top PL clubs = pigs at the ****ing trough ............ FACTAFUCKINMUNDO
 
Thought you meant the jockey for a moment. We once did an episode of Riders together. Shared a car with him I did.
 
I think he is a pretty switched on guy, whether you like it or not, and I don't, he certainly has driven the PL forward as a global business. Interesting he is saying he is going now, maybe he feels that the gravy train is finally coming to an end.
 
Glad he's gone, he has led the destruction of all that is good about the game in this country, and disadvantaged 85 clubs for the financial interests of the other 7.

The national team is weaker not stronger, and the whims of a generation of passive armchair turds take precedence of the people who actually attend games.

Good riddance to the ****.
 
I might chuck a couple of bob in myself to such a worthy cause. <ok>

All 20 Premier League clubs have been asked for a £250,000 contribution so that the league's outgoing executive chairman Richard Scudamore can be given a £5m farewell gift.

Times are hard when you've only been earning a £2.5 million a year salary and a paltry pension. He'll probably be applying for Universal Credit.
 
Circa 1999.

Scudamore to TV rights bidders: "I'm looking long term, say 19 years. What you lot wanna collectively bid ?"
TV companies in unison: "How about current deal compounded annually at 3 % ?"
Scudamore: "Piss off !".
TV bidding reps: " Oops. Meant to say 11.3 % compounded annually for 19 years".
Scudamore: "That's better. Done."

How hard can the job be ? And he wants Big Ben as a retirement present !!!

edit: Not you Sir Cheshire. The phallic symbol hanging around Westminster I mean.
