My first job on Monday, will be to see if TFGM can get some money by suing the MEN for breach of copyright, unless they actually asked for permission to reproduce the 99, 108, 109 Bus Guide map. It is no doubt significant that they chose an example from Trafford/South Manchester to illustrate their point. Given the MEN are obsessed with the eternal triangle": Salford/Trafford/South Manchester, maybe they should ask the Manchester TFGMC members why they can give free parking right across this weekend, particularly in the "poorer" part of the city centre (Piccadilly), but have no money to save "socially necessary" bus services?

As I understood it, it was TFGM that proposed to withdraw funding for the evening 236, DCC simply went along with it.
Are you now saying it's DCC withdrawing funding for the 202 or TFGM?

And how is Glossop a poor example? It's gone from having 3 evening services linking Glossop with 2 major towns - Ashton and Hyde, down to 1 poorly timed and operated service that me and many others can no longer rely on.
