Arriva could surely subcontract out given the match being on!
No idea on the specifics, but if you're short on drivers and have the option between running a 306 (which is pretty much covered by 3 other bus routes and the Metro) or something like the 52, you're not running the 306.

Was this posted in Haymarket, or just going off Bustimes?
Just interested as 7516 was had tracked on the 306 late afternoon but abruptly stopped and has been having issues with tracking, so it is possible this operated at least some of the post 5pm journeys.
