<p>Hi guys&nbsp;</p><p>I've just joined the Forum. I've got a interview at GNE riverside depot on Wednesday I'm panicking a bit as I'm Mild Dyslexia plus i was sacked from Snorkel for being to slow or there's was any opportunities for working anywhere else in the factory. I've read a few message on&nbsp; Rail forum about tips on the interview &amp; what the stages are the worrying stage is the the math side &amp; the highway code I'm ok on the driving&nbsp;&nbsp;plus it's&nbsp;about being a safe driver.The other is the scenario test what&nbsp;is the right way or the wrong way without get a month full from a passenger.&nbsp;</p><p>Greg&nbsp;</p>

Mods: Merge the football topic with this or lose the old football thread.

New season is upon us, League Fixtures are out...

How will your team do this year.

Here is my predictions...

Premier League:- Liverpool
Championship:- Leeds United
League One:- Sunderland
League Two:- Plymouth Argyle
National League:- Wrexham
National League North:- Chorley

I predict Newcastle to finish Mid-Table, Middlesbrough to finish just behind Leeds

In the National League, Hartlepool, I reckoned will finish mid-table

In the National North, I reckon Darlington and Spennymoor will reach the Play-Offs and Gateshead and Blyth to finish mid-table.

South Shields will have another decent year and I reckon they will leave the Evo-Stik League as Champions, with Morpeth joining them through the Play-Offs.

<p>Just been having a bit of a think about having a running day using some of the remaining fleet of Scania L94UB Wright Solars from Go North East for a final farewell before they are all withdrawn over the summer.</p><p><br></p><p>The idea would be to have a Solar from each batch from the year they were bought new with all of them being used during the day on some of the routes they used to operate, this could work two ways it could be set up for the Solar to run additional boards of various services on a Saturday or Sunday similar to what Lothian do,&nbsp;Alternatively it could be completely independent to enthusiasts only similar to the NNRG running days.</p><p><br></p><p>So the routes for the day if it went ahead would be:</p><p><br></p><p>4932- 57/57A - Newcastle - Gateshead - QE Hospital - Fewster Square - Heworth - Fellgate - South Shields</p><p><br></p><p>4966 - 194/294 - Heworth Metro - Concord - Washington - Fatfield - Shiney Row - Success Road - Houghton-Le-Spring</p><p><br></p><p>4968 - 35A/39 - Heworth - Boldon - Castletown - Sunderland - Barnes Park - Shiney Row - Houghton - Low Moorsley/Pennywell - Sunderland - Ryhope - Doxford International</p><p><br></p><p>4976 - Route 19 - Northumberland Park - Cobalt - Percy Main - North Shields</p><p><br></p><p>4989 - 20/20A/777/47 - South Shields - Sunderland/Sunderland -&nbsp;Penshaw - Fatfield - Harraton - Birtley - Low Fell - Gateshead - Newcastle/Newcastle - MetroCentre - Blackhall Mill</p><p><br></p><p>5216 - 220/222 - Sunderland - Houghton-Le-Spring - Durham</p><p><br></p><p>5221 - The Loop</p><p><br></p><p>5229 - OK1/X84/X85 - Middlesbrough - Darlington - Bishop Auckland - Crook/Hexham - Corbridge - Heddon On The Wall - Newcastle</p><p><br></p><p>Other vehicles from these batches could be used in order to create extra runs.</p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><br></p>
