They are rightly taking advantage of the Government's scheme. It is designed to assist Companies who are on the breadline.
Chris will be happy, these other two scribes will be scrapping and scurrying about looking for titbit Shite to put to print.

Used to actually quite like the ET when I lived through in Glasgow. Shame it seems to have gone the way of most others.

Scotland really is a fucked country, where Celtic are considered more important than a world wide disaster.

McGarry should have been sacked on the spot for this outrage. A disgusting and vile post.

Newsquest puts staff on furlough and cuts wages to 'minimise job losses' during pandemic
Newsquest is placing a "significant number" of its staff on furlough while all those who remain will face a wage cut in action to "minimise wider job losses" during the coronavirus (Covid-19) crisis.www.pressgazette.co.uk
Chris Jack, who covers Rangers for the Herald and Evening Times, is the highest profile victim of the lay-offs at the two papers. He has been put on the UK Government furlough scheme and will be paid 80% of his salary by the UK Government for the next three months. There are now only two sports journos covering for both the Herald and Evening Times, Graeme McGarry and Matthew Lindsay. And they have also had their salaries slashed.
No surprise Jack was singled out by the rabid SNP supporting hierarchy in there.
this is a company, and there are many, taking advantage of the government paying staff wages.
Shame about Chris Jack losing his job only real articles a read from the paper because it was Rangers related.
I know Matthew Lindsay well we were members of the same golf club played a few rounds with him. Was a good guy but recently appears to be taking the hollicom coin nowadays with the tripe he has been putting his name to probably the only reason he is still there.

While I have sympathy for Chris, and generally don't like to see folks lose their jobs I am overcome with apathy regarding the future of these two rags. Would be happy to see the demise of these propaganda pamphlets. In short fck them.

From the ACAS website, Furloughed workers
The employer needs to get agreement from the employee to do this, unless it’s covered by a clause in the employment contract. They also need to select employees in a fair way to avoid any discrimination.
Just saying like.

I genuinely think it's sad to see the demise of good quality Scottish journailsm.
At one time it was the envy of the world ...... and then the Celtic-minded arrived.

My flatmate worked the herald / evening times back in the mid 90s. They wanted to bin the Evening times then but thought there would be a backlash from the 'oh the banter' brigade that would affect heralds sales so chickened out of it. The last time I bought the evening times is was about half full of small ads selling fridges, bikes and dogs.

Papers ran by poets its no shock they pick Chris! How dare he write or even think to write positivity about Rangers the club they all wanted dead so f.ucking bad.... whilst all the dirty rattlers have free reign to print the shite we see in a daily basis! They will be rhabid dhogs now that Dave King has stepped down writing more lies and doom. Good luck Chris i hope you find your feet and get back soon.

The print press is nearly dead.
There is a growing vacuum waiting to be filled.
The club should be exploiting this by completely overhauling its own media operation.
They could recruit Chris Jack for a start. There‘s loads of guys on here who’d love to write about the history of the club and counter the increasing anti-Rangers bias of the past few decades.
The alternative is allowing BBC Scotland to have even more influence.
