BTP advice on travel for tomorrow:

BTP:We are advising football fans travelling to and from Nottingham for matches tomorrow not to attempt to use trains to travel.
This is due to the ongoing emergency response to the fire at Nottingham railway station.
The station is unlikely to be open by tomorrow, and if it does open, there will not be a full service operating.
BTP seemingly from that announcement areadvising only football fans not to travel? No mention of other travellers being advised to make alternative plans
Once again football fans treated like second class citizens
what a blithering idiot!
....
Really?
BTP have a history of trying to stop football fans travelling on trains.
BTP have openly stated in the past they would rather football fans do not use regular service trains.
However, if you are so blinkered and so myopic that you miss the bigger picture affecting all football fans, then so be it.
Strangely enough the FSF take a very different view to you
FFS. The reason the BTP have issued this advice is blindingly obvious:
NOTTINGHAM STATION CAUGHT FIRE!There is no guarantee services will run tomorrow let alone run according to the timetables. It isnt a conspiracy against football fans. It is sensible advice asking people not to travel to that particular station unless they absolutely have to as facilities and services will be under pressure.
SURELY that is obvious to anyone with even half a brain.
EDIT - BTW I am fairly certain i know more about how the railway and the BTP operate but feel free to suggest otherwise. I could get all technical and explain in excruciatingly boring detail why that advice has been issued but it isnt worth the bother.
