Aye. Unfortunately, I cant do anything with it as I'm furloughed for the foreseeable. Rangers are aware of it. 

You can always get permission from your employer to do other work while furloughed 

Anyway I suppose it’s one of those things that’s only worth writing about if somebody is willing to listen and do anything about it ,which sadly I don’t think there’s much appetite for in this shitehole

I'm not 100% sure about that mate, my son has been furloughed and has said that he cannot do any work at all whilst furloughed.

I can but but I'd have no real platform to put it on where it would gain any traction.

I can but it needs to be ok'd and isn't allowed to take place during my normal contracted hours.

Same at my work. They gave everyone a talk emphasing they can't even check mails or the company could be fucked. 

Not me though as I've still to go in 😫

It got clarified recently by Martin Lewis that you can (with restrictions).

You cannot do other work when furloughed. You can’t even work for your own company who furloughs you.

Its black and white on the governments website

The SPFL are holding a series of conference calls this week to discuss the implications of the coronavirus crisis and the ongoing shutdown of football.

Tony McGlennan, the former SFA compliance officer who is now a lawyer specialising in corporate crime and contentious regulatory matters, believes they will be able to argue their champions were decided on “sporting merit” if they can't complete the fixture list.

"I don't see that term further defined in the (UEFA) regulations, nor is there reference of that being at the conclusion of a season," he told BBC Scotland yesterday.  "If (the SPFL) have financial or other reasons which is encouraging them to call or declare their league, there would be, on the basis of that criteria, an argument to say the final standing is based on sporting merit."

Another day, another tim, another angle.

You missed the part we says we only had 1% chance of winning the league 😂😂

I’d be interested to know what this model was based upon. Did it factor in that 2 of the remaining games are against each other and that in the last two outings we battered them? As has been waxed lyrical on here that 13 point deficit could realistically be reduced to 4 points with a win against St Johnstone and 2 wins against Them. 
 

Fair enough nobody seemed to be able to take points off Them prior to this and it would take a total capitulation on their part but 4 points against the top 6 doesn’t seem quite so insurmountable. Although I’ll admit I’m being a bit cavalier with my logic.

Fuck knows. I though I read you weren’t allowed to do any other paid work but you can so what I got from work might be out of date

They do not even try to hide it now.😲  Glad to see the ex- compliance officer is fair and even minded across all teams. If this shitebag was a referee and we somehow got a penalty he would trip the penalty taker on his run-up.

If they fiddle it so the scum get awarded the trophy, they’ll probably get the current compliance  officer, Clare Whyte, to present the trophy.

Looking at the reporting of all of this it’s like our game in hand has just disappeared!

It's a bonafide, legitimate path they're heading down, as confirmed by the fact that a lawyer who specialises in contentious regulatory matters  insists it's ok.  We're in safe hands.

Tony McGlennan is a dirty fenian bastard.
