Read his post again. 'Services are poor and don't warrant NEW buses'. No mention of deckers it's the suggestion that Middleton don't warrant new buses.

I'm right in saying your a lot younger than me but if you look back at the history of stagecoach Manchester they have in the past had services that were 90% single decker. 168/169 was operated by B10Ms as were 236/237 - and they ran to Manchester not the shorter Ashton route, but they recognised the need to convert to deckers hence today the majority are operated by deckers and I imagine it's the same for Middleton. With deckers there's more scope to attract more passengers onto exsisting services.
