Quote: Asgardian13 "Yes he does. In fact, Premiere League bosses have little power themselves, and are at the mercy of majority voting by the club chairman on all significant decisions. The clever ones, like Scudamore and their very first Chief Exec, Rick Parry, have subtle management styles where they can convince the collective chairmen that policies tabled by the Chief Exec were actually thought of by the chairmen themselves. By contrast Peter Leaver, who won the best ever TV deal to date ( at the time ) by the clever ruse of hiring as consultants the two former senior Sky TV sports execs, was sacked because he did this without consulting the chairmen.
