Train Strike 6 April

[Middlesex Mixer]

Bad news for those of us supporters hoping to travel to Molineux for game v West Ham. No trains from London Euston. Bad news for W Ham fans too

Slightly OT but there seem to be a load of Prem games on TNT Sport (BT) that week. Both this game and The Burnley game on Tues 2 April have odd ko times- are either/both televised?

It's the same sort of package they put together for Amazon for their December games. They get to televise the whole round of games (hence the staggered kick-off times), 8 live games over Tues-Thurs. Although the packages were specifically designed to entice Amazon/Netflix it seems TNT have this one.

Although checking, it seems the Wolves game is 1 of 2 that aren't down to be shown on live TV, I guess cos there's 3 TNT channels but 5 games happening on the Tuesday, typical luck!

I am confused as the National Rail website suggests otherwise.

Incident: IA April | National Rail

Industrial action to affect many National Rail services from Thursday 4 April until Tuesday 9 April. Find details of all current incidents on National Rail Enquiries.

Wolves V West Ham is still 3pm on Saturday April 6th. Although the local rag shows Wolves v West Ham as a 4pm kick off and Burnley away starting at 20.45 !!! The Burnley game is one of two that is not on TNT while all the others are. The other match that they are not showing is Palace v Bournemouth. Either one of those games they have snubbed would be better than Brentford v Brighton which is on and I must make a point of not watching !

Thought Avanti West Coast were operating on the Saturday. Their day of strike action is on Friday, 5th April.
Admittedly there may be some overspill into the next day, but as long as rolling stock is in the right place it shouldn't cause all services to be cancelled.

Yup, National Rail say Avanti and LNWR strikes on Friday and Chiltern (which runs London to Birmingham) on Saturday.
