- Scudamore says: "It's an extra game, it's is not taking anybody's game away, and it includes all 20 clubs which is very important. All 20 clubs will benefit and there is a huge element of solidarity about it.
"When the league does well, other people in the football family do well in terms of redistribution. We feel it is a very positive thing. "
