Premiere league boss Richard Scudamore has had the whistle blown on his recent actions.

Rani Abraham, who was Scudamore's temp personal assistant, exposed sleazy emails as she felt she had a duty to women to speak out about the chief executive's conduct. 

The ex-law student said she was “humiliated, belittled and disgusted” by messages between Premier League Chief Executive Richard Scudamore and his business associates.

Miss Abraham, 41, said: “I had a duty to speak out. If I didn’t then I’d somehow be condoning his behaviour.”

The Daily Mirror reported that in the shared emails there were jokes about “gash” and “big-t****d broads” and “female irrationality”.

In another message between them, they referred to fending a female member of staff nicknamed Edna “off their shaft”.

Pressure continued to mount on Scudamore yesterday as the Football Association’s powerful independent board member Heather Rabbatts, who will chair an FA hearing into his conduct on Tuesday, issued a statement saying he should consider his position in light of “growing evidence of a closed culture of sexism” at the Premier League.
