Depots are now routinely ignored the supposed allocations. Take for example the posting where 4644/5 (Max?) are on service 7 to Durham and a Sapphire Pulsar running X75/6. Just one example of many.
I was a little harsh there. It must be one hellof a job working as a supervisor or "behind the scenes" with allocations and driver rotas.
