Would they still be having this tube strike if 2 of the big 4 had been playing?

I think not.
Pressure would have been put on them somehow.

 

Obviously a conspiracy against Barnsley!

FFS of course they would, it would have been bigger news and given them more publicity. I'm pretty sure the RMT didn't look at the fixture list and think "Yes! lets annoy Barnsley fans".

 

RE: Obviously a conspiracy against Barnsley!

The stadium is served by three stations s Chiltern and Silverlink metro rail lines. All three have undergone major improvements to increase passenger capacity and accessibility and over 100 trains an hour go through these stations on event days.
So if your woried go by train only tube services affected.
if your only travelling down for the day Harrow and Weildstone train station ( or Hatch end which is Stanmore turn off on m1 -go past tube station which is on the left ,come to Hatch end with parking -check availability of parking first ,not had time myself)-not to be confused with Harrow rail station which does not pass through the ground.

tick parking spots (after map has loaded )and railway stations -note rail line coming from left does not go to wembley.
