Diamond cant really take too much as they dont have the drivers to run what they have, unless MCT Tupe drivers over with the routes,

There’s always the possibly TFGM might ask MCT/HCT to continue running the tenders they haven’t lost until they can get them retendered.
Don’t forget at the moment it’s only proposed that the doors shut at end of April. Look what happened with JPT. They announced they were to cease trading then at the 11th hour TFGM stepped in and negotiated a takeover deal with stagecoach.

What I will say is that two senior managers from rotala/diamond turned up this morning, were shown around and spoke to some drivers about them wanting to offer every driver work at either Eccles or Bolton.
