Default World Cup tube strikes

Oddly, they don't seem to tie in with England's World Cup matches very
well. RMT union members will walk out at 1900 BST on 23 June and 7
July for two 48 hour strikes. England's final group match (possibly
final match) will be on the 23rd at 15:00 BST. The second strike will
cover the semi-final which might contain England if we come second in
our group. If the RMT had scheduled it earlier they could have
covered both semifinals with it. Did someone at the RMT use a
schedule in South African time and calculate wrongly?


It screws up those of us going to Wimbledon for some proper sport, though.

I think this could be Tim Henman's year ...
