NAF World Cup - Strike

Post subject: Strike
On sunday, Amsterdam, the Hague and Rotterdam public transports will be on strike for 24 hours.
Now only Amsterdam is important unfortunately.

Anyway, this is a major pain and I propose the following:

We know some other companies are still working since they fall under different unions (or something like that). For those who need to reach the airport, we will have an update as soon as we know something. Otherwise, taxi's might be the only solution but get them on time since they might be busy.

In the booklet we have proposed a 3 day pass. We now propose a 2 days pass.

Very sorry for the inconvenience and chaos this might bring.

BTW, since Amsterdam is F&*%%g small, I propose that most who are already sleeping near the centre canals, don't pay for the pass anyway since you can walk (when you're sober).

Since a walk to central station from "de Rode Hoed" is around 30 minutes (or less), I think those needing to get to Schiphol won't be having much problems. Trainpersonel are not on strike.

Still, those using public transport to get to the venues need to remember this for sunday.

Cheers

Are those teams also not playing in the final round because if your flights are at 20.30 you are running an impossibly tight schedule. Good luck.

Time for sunday has already been adjusted for this.
If friday and saturday go smoothly, we hope to play a little quicker on sunday.
Still, from de Rode Hoed to Central Station is a short distance. We'll make sure to get all the players to the right track which travels to Schiphol. Please notify which teams can't play at "de Schutter" during the last round.
We do advice to have traintickets before sunday (we can help if needed).

But to be clear, the sundaymatches for those teams have to be finished at 18:30 and they need to leave immedaitely.

I am in the same situation than the spanish players. I suppose that if the strike perturbates the shuttle between Central station and Shipol, the taxi would be the better alternative.

Please, keep us informed especially about the airport shuttle.

Hy all

As we have our train back to Paris at 20h16 can we be sure to finish all the games at 18h30? Is it enough to go to Centraal?

Thanks for all and see you on Friday!

Knox, even if you're quite drunk and stoned you should be able to walk from the rode hoed to central station in half an hour.

Hy! And thank you for your answer. Sorry if my question was not precise but I would like to known at what hour all the event will be finished (Last game, awards etc...) as we would like to stay 'till the end (In case we will win something Wink )

Thanks for all

We hope the matches will end around 18:30.
Then we need to sort everything out. get all awards and stuff to the central hall and start the award ceremony.
I can't say exactly when this will start or when it's done.

Sorry

Tomorrow will be a meeting to resolve the strike.
It seems that some airport and some fly companies will be not affect by the strike.
But probably we know something only on thursday morning
