New Bristol City CEO Phil Alexander has revealed that Richard Scudamore is "very much involved" with the decision-making at the Robins, as Bristol Live understands the former Premier League chief executive holds an advisory role with the club.
Lifelong City fan Scudamore has been considered for a permanent position at Ashton Gate after stepping down from his role leading the Premier League in 2018 and after Mark Ashton’s departure in 2021, he was a popular choice among supporters to take over.
However, Scudamore never applied, with Richard Gould then appointed, and while he retained a sense of professional distance from the Robins in a formal sense, has continued to act on a consultancy basis to the hierarchy in BS3.
