Or alternatively Andy Giddings tweet at 10.26 a.m this morning was a more accurate reflection of the situation in that they were considering it but no final decision had been made.
Unsurprisingly The Star comes up with its own interpration and people wonder why no one buys it.
Oh.
 
It's in the name, 'furlough'. Sheffield United are not paying their staff in full and they should be punished!

I am a successful business woman and I treat my staff properly.

Furlough wasn't invented for the Corona virus. It just means mandatory time off, it doesn't indicate pay, which can be between nowt and full pay.

Companies/entities can furlough employees whenever they like, have done before this shitfest and will do post shitfest.

Furlough is the title of the government scheme, invented by Boris Johnson.

I am a successful business woman and I am educated on things like this.

You are a fucking dimwit. Stop conflating “furlough” and the government scheme. As others have said, furlough is standing people down because there is no work. How they get paid is a separate issue.

Oh, and whoever is running with this “comedy” account, I hope you wank yourself into oblivion gloating in your “genius”.

Well you're going straight to the tigers.
 
Just been watching the 6am Beeb news this morning, we are paying furloughed staff their full wage and not taking the govt scheme, the club are also allowing those staff who are furloughed to volunteer to help NHS...etc.
 

No that's the government's job retention scheme.

Furlough has always been a thing.
But something that’s never been used or considered here
If you read this article it does say the 80% so are the club paying staff 80% or is that 80% from elsewhere?
 
Paying them 100% of their wage. Not using the government scheme. Encouraging staff to volunteer for things like NHS and things they can do in their community.

I think its a pretty decent effort to be fair
That’s political bollocks

That’s standard practice with every furloughed role
You can go and do voluntary work trains etc so it’s not a club stance it’s a mandatory requirement which says to me we will be using the government scheme by May

If your a successful business woman surely read the article then there paying in full
 
Oh come on, it was slightly amusing.
Which bit? It wouldn't be a bad thing for someone with genuine wit to create a parody account and jump in with a few wise cracks every now and again, or someone who could use parody to stimulate debate, or play devil's advocate. Or anything like that. But that would take intelligence, wit, restraint, thought.
This is just some dimwit on the wind up.
 
A worthwhile take by David Conn.


But I still think there’s a moral imperative on organisations with wildly top heavy salary structures (and access to cash) to find a different way.
Completely agree with the article been saying the same for weeks. It's easy to demonise footballers because they are in the public eye, hated by many for their massive wage, and working class.

Many would prefer it if footballers got paid minimum wage and all the profits went to the shareholders. Tory politicians wouldn't have a peep to say about that.
 
Do you need to have watched this Netflix thing to find it funny?
I haven’t seen it yet, and but I get the alias from the current memes and twitter comments.
Not seen what else they’ve posted, but that post made me smile knowing what was coming.
Then again I’ve been reading Twitter for the past couple of hours and have seen the criticism we’re getting from fans who either haven’t read the article or haven’t understood what furlough means.
