Liverpool scandal, fans could abandon team at Premier League games

Liverpool's activities will resume this weekend in the Premier League with the visit of Manchester City to Merseyside, a duel of utmost importance for both institutions as the Citizen team is looking for that mistake of Arsenal to take the lead, while the Reds try to take advantage of any oversight of the rivals and climb some positions that puts them in the fight for positions in European competitions, generating this that the fans at Anfield will turn with everything to the stadium to provide that support that Klopp's men need.

Some of the unconditional support that the Reds fans have shown so far could be affected in the upcoming matches of the English competition, as according to information from the Rail Maritime and Transport (RMT) union, it has confirmed that members working as train managers at Avanti West Coast will be withdrawn for a few days, causing Liverpool fans looking to travel to support their team to be unable to get to their destination.

The Reds travel to Nottingham Forest and Tottenham Hotspur in the coming weeks, playing on 22 October and 6 November respectively. Part of the statements on the possible withdrawal of train services was explained by RTM general Mick Lynch, who said the strike is the pinnacle of passenger neglect. "Avanti should never have been given any extension to their franchise agreement for all the chaos they have caused passengers, and their disregard for their staff is integral to their disastrous approach."

The Avanti West Coast website has not yet published a new timetable for the days that will be affected by the strike, and according to a statement on the site says that the train company is currently working to rebuild a timetable for 22 October and 6 November, allowing the most efficient service possible for all passengers, most of whom are likely to be Liverpool fans who will be travelling to watch their team away from home to The Nottingham Forest Football Club and Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

No transport will be available to move Liverpool supporters 

Even if the trains are disrupted by the strikes and have to reorganise their services over the next few weeks, many Reds fans will find a way to get to the away fixtures, depending on Sunday's result against Manchester City, as a win would again break the mirage created by a third Champions League appearance, bringing the Merseyside outfit back to reality in the 2022-2023 season.
