In the build-up to a meeting in March 2016, Scudamore emailed clubs saying: No amount of charity giving or the deployment of slick PR can make up for the reputation we have garnered, fairly or unfairly, in the court of public opinion, of being greedy b******* and not giving two hoots for the fans.Levy, who referenced the Premier Leagues top six clubs Arsenal, Liverpool, Chelsea, Manchester United, Manchester City and Tottenham, replied: Happy to do a call with us 6 . . .
