Fresh rail strikes could be set to impact Nottingham Forest supporters in April.
RMT Union members will be striking as a result of long-running dispute over pay on March 16, 18, 30 and April 1. One of the Reds’ upcoming games will take place during the strikes and could affect any fans travelling to the match.
Forest are set to host Wolves at the City Ground on April 1. It means that any Forest fans making the journey from further afield and Wolves’ away contingent could be impacted by the strike action. However, the club’s home game with Newcastle United will be unaffected as it falls between the strikes on March 17.

The RMT Union represents 40,000 workers. RMT General Secretary Mick Lynch said: "Rail employers are not being given a fresh mandate by the government to offer our members a new deal on pay, conditions and job security."
Network Rail's chief negotiator, Tim Shoveller added: "Thousands of employees are telling us they want the improved offer that we have tabled, an offer worth at least 9% over two years - rising to over 14% for the lowest paid, provides job security with no compulsory redundancies and 75% discounted rail travel.
"But instead of offering members a democratic vote with a referendum, the RMT leadership is hiding behind a sham 'consultation.”
