I personally think that they'll end up changing the stanley system again by splitting branding up completely, so I don't think the black omnidekkas will go anywhere until they die, which I don't see as being too far in the distance given one stinks of fumes, one has had an engine bay falling out more than once and another two don't stop refusing to leak oil on a large scale. The fact that they stopped doing back-end repairs and thermal work makes me think that they stopped being worked on for more than just being 'busy'.

The OmniDekkas are here to stay for a number of years, so I don't agree with you on this one!
25 V-reg and 18 02-reg Volvo B7s to dispose of first, before they can get rid of any OmniDekkas. A number of B7s will be cascaded/withdrawn as a result of OmniCitys transferring from Riverside to Stanley (6014 being the first), but there'll still be around 40 B7s to dispose of / find replacements for.
Unlikely to be very many new double-decks, so replacements will have to come in the form of further double-deck cascades from around the Group... From Brighton or London, who knows?
