Bristol City supporters hoping to travel to their first game of the season at Hull by train are likely to be hit with severe delays and cancellations with industrial strike action and engineering work due to take place.
As it stands, members of eight train operators are planning a walkout on July 30 that will cause major disruption to all supporters hoping to travel across the country in the curtain-raisers across the Football League.
The strike, which is likely to involve around 40,000 workers from drivers to signalling and track maintenance workers, is the second major disruption after June's walkout. It means most trains will stop running and others will be on a reduced timetable.
