Well done Met

Another StKilda game and NO trains running direct from Spencer St to the Sandringham line - the heartland of StKilda.
Thousands left to find their way to Platform 13 at Flinders St for the Sandy trains sitting waiting for them.

I understand that Pakistanis don't know much about AFL, but surely they could employ a consultant to help them co-ordinate what trains to run where when the footy is on!

Is this a racist alert?

I understand that Pakistanis don't know much about AFL...

Judging by the numbers of people yelling 'ball' when it's clearly not, neither do Aussies.

Most Sandy liners get chauffered home anyway.

Meanwhile over at Caulfield, one Pakenham train is stopped at Platform 4 and obviously is buggered and not going anywhere, so the next train arrives Ptatform 3 and is packed even more with those who have run from platform 4 to platform 3.

Then then platform 4 train announcements for the Pack-en-ham will now leave in 2 minutes, leaving some stuck on Platform 3 trying to return to platform 4. A typical Metro farce-connex rebadged.

There was a faulty train or signalling on the Dandy line last night after the game. Probably causing some of the issues

WTF? I understand your frustration, but we certainly don't need your racist rants

I asked 3 Officials where the next Sandringham train was leaving from.
All were Pakistani.
And had limited knowledge of the MET and English.

Did they double up as your "Computer support person from the computer department" willing to fix your computer error?

Thanks for the suggestion Sunil, but I live this dream every working day.
In fairness to Metro I do think they are doing a better job than Connex but in last couple of months they've plummetted to Connex levels.
