If anyone here is on Twitter, there's a page 'World Cup of English Bus Routes' who are running a knockout competition for operators and routes around the country.  Today is the Midlands Independents rounds.  Each round is open for voting for 24 hrs.

Ha! The first company name I saw on their list was Ministerley Motors, and thought of Richard.

How is it the world cup of bus routes when it's just English bus routes? The FA Cup of English Bus Routes would make more sense.

My vote; via our offical Twitter account; has gone for Sargeant Brothers  who First worked with on the 461 Hereford to Llandridnod Wells on tender for many years. Excellent operator with smartly turned out vehicles.

NX Coventry aren't even listed in it.

And Ministerley Motors barely pipped Banga to the victory, it seems.

It could be worse, they have put both of Diamond's operations in the same group.
