Thread: Sports Direct Corona Virus

  1. #1

    Sports Direct Corona Virus

    You could bet that he will be the last one on the High Street to close his doors to the public

    Thinking of it logically apart from golf most other sports are greatly restricted. There is no reason why any sport shops should be open at the moment.

    One thing he must be seething about is that as very few of his empoyees are on P.A.Y.E. and are on a wierd contract basis then he won't get the 80% help from the government to cover the wages.

    Read about a guy in Tennessee spent 3 days scouring the state buying them trying to profiteer spent about 17k. Was arrested.

    In one way, its business and commedable. American dream stuff if you like.

    But in another totally despicable. This is essentially killing people for a few bucks.

    We've had a few like that in Oxford.

    Corner shop near the school I work at had bought up a load of toilet roll and was selling it for £11.99 a pack.

    Cnt.

    Wouldn't use that shop again after this.

    Should have a website called something like, well "cnt spotter" would work.

    Somewhere as these people and business are named and shamed after this is over.

    Agreed.

    To be fair, i don't think he will get used again by a lot of people.

    Agreed, that those businesses should be named and shamed - some are on facebook but should just be a generic website.
