TOP-FLIGHT clubs have been left flabbergasted by Chelsea chairman Bruce Buck’s idea they all contribute towards a £5million golden goodbye for outgoing Premier League chief Richard Scudamore.
Ahead of the 20 Premier League clubs emergency meeting in London today, the Daily Mail report Buck has called on them all to each cough up £250,000.
And the idea does not seem to have gone down well with the other 19 clubs, despite recognition for the job Scudamore has done making the Premier League the global success it is during 59-year-old’s 19 years at the helm.
Scudamore first joined the Premier League in 1999 and has been responsible for its meteoric growth worldwide, becoming one of the most powerful figures in English football.
He has negotiated television deals worth billions, which in turn has allowed England’s major clubs to spend huge sums on buying players, as well as paying them lavish wages.
He earns a basic wage of £900,000-a-year, but his money rockets to near £2.5million-a-year with the bonuses he trousers for negotiating the top flight’s multi-billion pound broadcasting deals around the globe.

Club officials have been asked to attend the short-notice meeting at the Premier League HQ in London this afternoon.
However, they will be asked to dial in on a conference call if they are not able to make it in person.
Who replaces Scudamore will be a pressing matter on the agenda as there has been frustration among some clubs there has not been as clear plan regarding his successor.
He gave an emotional speech when he announced in June that he would step down from his role as executive chairman.
He said: “It’s an absolute privilege to have been allowed to enjoy this role for so long.
“It is too much fun to be called a job.
“I am sure (the PL’s broadcast partners) will forgive me for singling out Sky for special recognition.
“Back in 1992 they were the catalyst for the start of the Premier League journey and have backed us all the way since.”

To achieve her kick-ass figure, Hayden – who plays cheerleader Claire Bennet in Heroes – follows the ‘quartering’ rule. She eats only a quarter of the food on her plate, then waits 20 minutes before deciding whether she needs to eat again.
Hayden says: “I don’t have a model’s body, but I’m not one of those crazy girls who thinks that they’re fat. I’m OK with what I have.”
Nicollette says: “I don’t like diets – I see it, I eat it! I believe in eating healthily with lots of protein, vegetables and carbs to give you energy.”
