Strike are designed for maximum disruption so if you are going to have one the concert day would be the day they choose.

much like the Concerts on most nights at the O2 Academy or the Metro Arena...oh no wait

Those 1D fans are pretty vengeful mind - the union leader will probably wake up without his balls in the morning

I was thinking Springsteen?

 

[shepherd88]

f***ing hell all of 86 people voted 67 voting yes for strike action.

However how many members does the RMT have working on the metro?

You reckon they have called this strike just to piss Sunderland off?

These are biggest concerts in the north east by far, just a coincidence they have been at Sunderland. Strike action is aimed at maxiumn disruption to give you a better bargaining position. No point striking if it affects very few people

so they've opted to choose a Wednesday (when 1D are at the SOL) rather than a saturday when Kings of Leon are performing at a bigger ground in a bigger city on a weekend. Maximum disruption you say?

Maybe they had no reason to strike then. I very much doubt they look down the calender thinking when can we piss people off the most

 

[AlpineExile]

Aye, that's right, the same day as One Direction play at the SoL.

What a coincidence, eh? Almost as much a coincidence as discovering where the regional HQ of the RMT is ....

Not that I even know a single 1D song, and nor would I be using the metro even if I did and I was going to see them.
