[Albion] Palace home game moved to Wed 15th - RMT Strike on Thursday 16th March

[jackalbion]

Assuming he’s saying staff who are signed on to work there shift before midnight will still complete their shift in full and don’t stop immediately at midnight midshift so shouldn’t be impacted

Not like I’m meant to know this kind of stuff

 

[kentgully]

Is there an official bus from Worthing ?

 

[Napper]

There won’t be I’ve regularly travelled back from London and various football matches on evenings before a strike, it’s fine, if anything better service than usual. More staff turn up on days before strikes so they can take annual leave/rest day on the strike day. Like I said the everyone will sign on before midnight for late turns so won’t be an issue.

I've been caught out twice on the evening before strikes due to trains not running due to " no train crew " and the other occasion the train just didn't run and disappeared from the board.

I wouldn't trust it at all

That happens every day, because there isn't enough staff to run the railway, there is no strike related reason that I expect this happened, the railways are just in a dire state.

Hopefully the club will announce tomorrow that they are aware of the Palace match trains issue and will look into matters. The railways are always useless at providing info on their sketchy service until nearer the time when we all know it will be basically what it was last time - that doesnt help anyone, including the club!

Indeed, just for you no doubt

Do I take it that the uni parking is suspended that night too?

How is this only being reported by the Athletic, and why haven't the club told us this!?

Possibly. We played Spurs last season the same day the aforementioned Energumene won. He was certainly at Cheltenham no idea if he made it back to Brighton for the game though.

He did make it back but only just. He was supposed to be getting a helicopter back but the weather was too bad so had to be driven down instead.

Hmmm, that's annoying for me. Was planning on staying down south for palace and Man Utd, staying an extra day isn't ideal.

 

[Gazwag]

At least that means we might get a Saturday cup match

The ManU game is highly likely to be rearranged anyhow as its the FA Cup 1/4 final weekend. Unless we both lose next week of course!
