Hopefully Northern Rail will not be involved. The service is bad enough when they are not on strike.

They arranged it for a City home game, not an away. Nice one.

They arent involved in this one,but they will soon get involved if an agreement cannot be found.

Other strike dates are the 18th and 20th.

I support the strikes, but not if they are on match days.

Gotta look after number 1

Gotta look after number 1

Exactly. Fucks me right in the arse. I’ve now got to try and get my money back out of 4 different train companies (Avanti’s prices prohibit a simple back and forth from London to Manchester). Up the workers, but not on a fucking Saturday!

They were on strike yesterday and barely any trains this morning. Making getting into town/work a nightmare

If they have to lose money,may as well get a weekend out of it ;-)
