Were the others allowed to privately interview the candidates?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
You tell me, you're the conspiracy headcase.

'It is alleged Liverpool and United each met three candidates, including Dinnage along with the NBC executive Dave Howe and David Pemsel.


According to the Times' report, the meetings are understood to have taken place before any eventual decisions were made by the nominations committee.

The search had descended into something of a farce for the Premier League, who initially believed they had filled Scudamore's void after Dinnage accepted the role, before later changing her mind.

Dinnage’s decision, thought to be motivated as much by concerns about the potential problems facing the Premier League as a desire to remain in her current position at Discovery, was of particular embarrassment to Chelsea chairman Bruce Buck."

Where is the proof either LFC or United influenced Dinnages decision not to take the job? It wasn't LFC or United sending messages to young female colleagues that was the other candidate Pemsel

No proof because the interview was held in private.

They doesn't mean that United and Liverpool didn't influence Dinnage to withdraw her application, odd that she did though after advancing to that stage of the selection process.

"The search began with 25 names, which was reduced to five before the League settled on Dinnage, who had her name as a highly regarded executive at Discovery, where she had responsibility for Eurosport.


Buck had sparked controversy by asking the 20 Premier League clubs to donate £250,000 towards a £5million golden goodbye for the outgoing executive chairman.

That overshadowed Dinnage’s appointment in November with the clubs inviting further criticism by then dressing up the Scudamore payment as a three-year consultancy arrangement.

While sources insist that was not a factor in Dinnage’s U-turn, it is understood that since accepting the position she has become aware of the size of the challenge facing Scudamore’s successor. It is not just the potential for problems with the top flight’s big six agitating for a bigger slice of TV revenue.

Despite the last TV deal totalling a mind-boggling £5billion, there is concern about how competitive the sports broadcasting landscape remains when Sky have been so dominant, and how the future looks for the likes of BT Sport.

That was certainly on the mind of Crystal Palace owner Steve Parish, talking on BBC 5Live to Garry Richardson before the news broke.

He said: ‘There are challenges but fortunately for the Premier League it is so well received globally. The UK will be more difficult, interesting to see Amazon’s entry into it and hope we create more competition but the media landscape is changing.

‘The way we watch and consume is changing massively and quickly and it is a fantastic challenge for Susanna when she comes in at the Premier League and she knows a lot about that so we have someone who knows about that huge landscape.’

As one insider put it, that is ‘the legacy of Scudamore’, who received a CBE in the New Year’s Honours.

Further to that, Dinnage may have also got cold feet over the uncertainty being created by Brexit at a time when the Premier League and the FA remain poles apart over quotas and limits on foreign players."

You imply what you want because a meeting was held in private though.

Why were the meetings held in private though?

The media seem to think it's a question that needs an answer, it's not just me.

Where else are meetings held?

When you say the media needs an answer why is the article you posted from 2020? Needs an answer so much we've not heard much else of it since and.everyone moved on.

What proof do you have to refute the reasons cited, in the link you posted, for Dinnage changing her mind?
