Glasgow subway strikes 'cynically' timed during Rangers matches, claims Tory MSP

An MSP has accused union bosses of "cynically" timing subway strikes so they disrupt Rangers fans travelling to home games next month. Scottish Conservative transport spokesman Graham Simpson said the strikes on Glasgow's underground network would heavily disrupt Rangers fans.

The planned industrial action will take place during four home games for the side.

"The dates for this industrial action have been cynically chosen to maximise the disruption to Rangers fans on matchdays when thousands of them use the subway," the MSP for Central Scotland said. "We can't allow a main public transport artery in Scotland's biggest city to be brought to a standstill by a dispute over duty rosters."
