Too true Bob, my mate has gone through this with Asda, Sig new contract or your sacked, beware the Americans are coming
Hoden's new role is that he is essentially exclusively covering Rovers now. So it'll be business as usual as far as we're concerned.
Being re-organised out of a job, or having to apply for your own job are very well known tactics. Favorites can be rewarded. Awkward sods punished. And, of course, it's always because of a pressing need to 'fit the business for the challenges we face'. It keeps every bugger on their toes every minute of every day too. You never know when the next 're-org' will come into view.... Pick of the trade unionists too. Dead easy. I've been 'reorganised' twice, first time in 1993 when I refused to sign a new contract which would have meant longer hours and unacceptable safety risks. Second time in 2009 when I was offered promotion to replace my retiring boss on £16,000 pa less or stay where I was and suffer a £3,000 pa pay cut. I told both of them where they could shove it and have never regretted it. Have worked for myself now for 10 years and have no plans for reorganisation any time soon.BobG
Can’t answer about the Free Press but I used to read Rovers reports in the Doncaster Evening Star (think that’s what it was called) back in the seventies.
ok here's a quiz question and I am very serious what year was it that the Free Press discovered DRFC actually existed and started reporting on them. I have alway wondered when they "made the discovery"

I could never understand wht DRFC were ignored.
