What I'm wondering is were D&G actively trying to sell SLT or were they approached by Rotala. What's interesting is that at around the time of the Preston bus buy out a good friend of mine who works quite heavily within the industry told me Rotala were very keen on building a decent network in Greater Manchrster so I don't know whether I'm surprised or not.

Will Rotala just sit and make suttle changes to what they have inherited or will they keen to expand into other areas of Manchester?
