Staff working for retailer JJB Sports at its warehouse in Greater Manchester have voted to go on strike.

Employees at the distribution centre in Wigan are in dispute with managers over pay and conditions.

The distribution centre supplies all of JJB's 430 shops across the UK and strike action could affect supplies prior to Christmas.
