Football Supporters’ Federation urge Premier League clubs to reject 5m Richard Scudamore ‘golden handshake’
TheFootball Supporters’ Federation have urged Premier League clubs to reject a plan to give outgoing boss Richard Scudamore a 5million leaving present.The proposal comes from Bruce Buck, the Chelsea chairman, who also chairs the league’s audit and remuneration committee and led the search for Scudamore’s successor, Susanna Dinnage.The proposal will cost every Premier League club 250,0002

Her appointment was confirmed on Tuesday but it was overshadowed by the news that Buck had informally asked his fellow club bosses to contribute 250,000 each to thank Scudamore for his 19-year record of negotiating bumper broadcast deals.In a statement, the FSF said: “Premier League clubs have always told fan groups that budgets are planned in advance and there’s not a surplus of cash lying around from their extremely lucrative TV deal.“In the meantime, loyal football supporters continue to be inconvenienced by fixture changes to fit TV schedules, often losing out on travel costs or struggling to get to and from games in the first place. “Now it appears clubs can stick their hands down the back of the sofa and find 250,000 at a moment’s notice. Fans strongly oppose the ‘golden handshake’ and we urge clubs not to make a decision which is hugely unpopular with supporters.The 59-year-old Scudamore, who has been paid more than 26million during his time in charge, was unaware of Buck’s idea and is understood to be embarrassed that it took the spotlight off the appointment for a woman to British sport’s biggest job.Chelsea chairman Bruce Buck is said to have put the proposal forward2

So far only one club, Cardiff, has come out in favour of the plan, and it is understood the proposal will be privately discussed again in London where club bosses have gathered on Thursday for a scheduled Premier League shareholders’ meeting.The FSF’s objection to the idea follows earlier criticism from fans’ groups including Everton’s The Blue Union and Liverpool’s Spirit of Shankly, while former Crystal Palace chairman, Simon Jordan, also said it was wrong, telling talkSPORT:Its flawed. Hes done a good job fighting people, there were some very difficult personalities and some very difficult conundrums.But this doesnt mean he should be getting a 5million golden goodbye.”
