Wednesday’s Premier League Matches to Proceed after Suspension of London Tube Strike
The Premier League matches between Arsenal and Manchester United, Fulham and Liverpool, West Ham and Norwich on Wednesday will go ahead after a 
planned London Underground strike was suspended.
Fulham in particular had been worried that staff would not be able to attend “in sufficient time and numbers” to meet safety requirements.
“Our game against Liverpool tomorrow night, will go ahead as planned,” the club had tweeted, causing Liverpool’s American owner, John W Henry to criticise any possible postponement. He questioned on Twitter why Fulham had doubts over their ability to stage the game while West Ham, Arsenal and Leyton Orient planned to host matches regardless of a repeat of last week’s travel chaos.
Fulham manager, Rene Meulensteen had earlier said that he expected the game to go ahead regardless of any industrial action while his Arsenal counterpart, Arsene Wenger had admitted that while a strike would not be the best conditions for a game, the club had improved the number of stewards and the safety and security of fans should be guaranteed.
