The Daily Record has gone all 'Workers of all lands unite!' about Ashley now. Hit pieces against him. I know the man is a dodgy, anti-worker bastard, but I'm willing to look past it as long as he becomes The Hammer of the Huns. Of course, the Daily Reekord couldn't give a shit about the working conditions of Sports Direct employees, they're just absolutely greetin about the Sevco getting rinsed so they are. Cannae take it at all lol.
I read that whilst playing the smallest violin in the world. I have no doubt they are shit to work for, but this was about how they thought rules of law and contracts do not apply to them. It’s as if years of getting away with anything they want up here, that years of the SFA being their poodles has them thinking they spin a lie it’s accepted a fact.
The Ranger, ignoring their utter idiocy, and self inflicted financial burning spitfire actions, focused on portraying Ashley as the villain, when it was Sevco that signed the contract. Then thought, fuck this WATP we can set up a new deal.
Well, now that course of action has proved to be nuts, but rather than lay into their board, as they would have gloatingly done to ours, they tell a sob story about how Ashley is a bad employer.
I got a lovely feeling of, this could be fucking perilous, whilst reading the lament to badmouth Ashley.
It’s as if the Ranger is saying, well we know they broke a legally binding contract and denied the company they signed it with millions, but the main story is, if you go for a Shite working at SD, you get fined a weeks wages and your kids get sold for experiments.
I could almost hear the sobs of the articles author, feel the tears roll down his cheeks and hit the “real fake” top from Turkey he bought in Marmaris.
When the figure is revealed I am fully expecting a full page story of how Ashley pulled the wings of butterflies as a kid and as a young man, burned down orphanages.
There were tears in my eyes too, as I laughed myself into a borderline psychotic episode.
