Scudamore said at the start of the season that he did not want a one horse race as it was bad for business. Referees are paid by the FA and to a certain extent carry out their wishes. No money changes hands or any bias. The problem for the FA is that we are just too good. So therefore other teams are given a little helping hand, free kicks near the area, penalties, non given to us and so on. You see it every game. It is to keep the product viable. It has taken a huge helping hand to keep the dippers in touch but they done it and the season goes to the last weekend.
They get the majority of their funding from the Premier League I believe which makes Scudamore's comments even more prejudicial.
