Where did you see that? RMT strike is on 27th from what I've seen.

Its ASLEF train drivers who are striking on the 30th, not RMT.

Strike? To make the dippers feel at home?

I know. He had me worried. Thought RMT had announced another day.

I think it’s 14 days notice that a union have to give for a strike, so they’ll be no more on the 30th, other than the ones Alsef called today, which won’t affect anyone travelling from Manchester at least.

Having said that, they are talking about the railway grinding to a near standstill early next week because of the weather, so let’s hope it’s cooled down a bit by the end of the month.

Oh , so it’s just the folk who drive the trains who are on strike then ?
Phew . At least I’ll be able to get my meal deal whilst stuck in Piccadilly train station ;)

 

[asgoodasitgets]

My train service isn’t on the affected list yet . ( Cross Country and EMR ) but I think it’ll change . Worst case scenario , I’ll have to drive . Have to face the tramps sober .

I'm similar with Northern and EMR. But if they haven't joined by Saturday we should be OK with the 14 day notice ruling. Famous last words!

I'm not usually bothered about the Community Shield but I'm properly looking forward to it this year. I think I've just missed football since the season finished. I think I prefer that it doesn't involve going to Wembley.

Ditto,twice over !!

Apologies for jumping the gun, I've had a couple of drinks. I'm a RMT member... the next strike dates are Thursday 18th August and Saturday 20th, as well as 27th July.

Does this thing have extra time or is it straight to penalties if it's a draw at FT?

Just wondering what time I'd likely be home if it went the distance!
