Northern Rail - Lies and Inadequacies

Today we have witnessed the inadequacies on Northern Rail and lies (whether intentional or not) of your staff and twitter team.

The 19.11 Leeds to Knottingley arrived at 18.59 on platform 11. We were directed to board the front carriage of the three.

By 19.06 we were loaded and the doors closed, I noted this as I thought I was on the wrong train. At this point we had 11 minutes of the carriages to-ing and fro-ing as uncoupling took place. At 19.17 the doors reopened and at 19.20 we departed.
A more plausible reason
The guard later said an incident had occurred earlier which caused some delays, but he said he had witnessed the inept uncoupling and said jokingly that he didnt know what was going on there, This shows he was at the train at (at least) 19.06.

I raised this issue on twitter. They hid behind the earlier delays til I said that the train was still there early. Then they said the new crew were delayed but we know they weren't. They knew they had been caught out and just repeated the same lies. Now they may be looking at logs and so pushing info the believed in. In that case the logs are false.

Why did it take so long to uncouple..why are lies pushed. why were we late AGAIN. Why cant Northern Rail be honest..

I really do welcome your comments
