He's being kept on in some capacity by the EPL as an advisor isnt he for the next three yeas? This stinks. Why are say Huddersfield and the other promoted clubs / dreamers being asked to pay because it's the season Father Premiership Bonus has called time - surely Villa, West Brom, Sunderland and a host of others have earned more than them due to TV Rights obtained under his tenure. He got his bonuses right enough when he delivered for the Premiership when he was paid to do exactly what he did. Paying him extra because he's leaving as a Thank You is embarrassing. It's more than the contribution each club makes to support away fans as part of his initiative to help ordinary machgoets. I find it disgusting.
 
Cant believe this is leaked. Most guys in his position get a pay off at the end. He bonus fee should have came from the deals he made over the years tbf.

Im not even arsed about this. Progba on around 250 a week!!!! and he not the only one.

The difference being, pogba is paid by his club because they want him and will benefit from him competitively and commercially whereas this just stinks of some kind of mafia cartel, a rich boys pat on the back to a fellow rich boy for making us rich boys rich

Working class game my arse

That is business. Happens all over the world. There more concerning issues in football to be arsed about. But like i said its doesn't bother me and i can see your pov but its doesnt anger me.

It doesn't anger me, it just shows blatantly what a joke football is now and even Everton, the club we want to succeed on and off the pitch, you realise they're just part of the same boys club which by the way me and you arnt invited

This is the essence of capitalism. It is all about "what the market can stand". The clubs are being asked to buy nothing for £250,000; if they asked for £1,000,000 the clubs would say no. £1,000,000 for nothing is too much but at £250,000 it is alright.

Everton have been part of the old boys club since the early days. The sooner fans get behind supporting turning the club into one that’s genuinely a People’s Club and cares about the working class, the better
 
Im more concerned that the FA have appointed someone with zero football expertise to run the biggest league in the world.

No doubt her qualification was that she doesn't have a penis which is all that matters in the feminazi age we currenly live in.

Knew I would bait atleast one beta male response lol

In all seriousness its true I cant be the only one who's seen a sudden surge of women appointments all across the football league since the start of this season, be it commentary, punditry and in executive roles.

I have nothing wrong with it providing they are actually qualfiied to do the job- rather than being appointed on the basis of the FA trying not to look like "old white men".

Sol Campbell must be fuming mind.

Too right mate, only white males deserve to be appointed to such roles if they're unqualified
 
Ehm, if Everton aren't giving £250k, how is he getting £5m?

Following the PR firestorm which Buck's public announcement prompted, it was decided instead to pay out Scudamore from a Premier League "central fund" - so stories that Watford, Fulham and Southampton have refused to participate is a misnomer.

All clubs will effectively lose £250,000 from that fund, which will be used to retain Scudamore in a consultancy role when he steps down.
