    Oh I say his vision there was lovely

      The bus Fulham parked at Old Trafford should be big enough to carry everyone to and from the game

          It's a tactical plea.

          They are tired from the game yesterday and we are playing well atm.

          Don't buy this excuse whatsoever but it will be interesting to see what FA does.

            The following statement has been released this evening by Fulham Football Club.

            "Following a number of enquiries regarding how the potential London Underground strike action may affect Wednesday evening's fixture against Liverpool, the club can confirm that it is currently proceeding on the basis that the game will go ahead.

            "However, the club has concerns over the potential impact that the strike may have on the ability of its safety staff to attend the ground in sufficient time and numbers to ensure that it is able to open the ground and effectively operate it, from the time that the gates are open to the public until the departure of all supporters.

            "After consulting with the Local Authority and the Metropolitan Police, it has been decided that if the proposed action is still undetermined at 3pm tomorrow (Tuesday), and the club cannot guarantee enough staff are available to attend the ground in sufficient time and numbers, then as a consequence the club would not be able to comply with the terms of its safety certificate and the fixture would be postponed and rescheduled for a future date.

            "A further statement will be released at 3pm tomorrow to confirm whether the game will go ahead or be postponed."

            A Liverpool Football Club spokesperson said: "We will inform supporters through our official channels as soon as more information becomes available regarding the fixture.

            "The safety and well-being of supporters has to be the paramount concern of everyone involved in this process."


            If they can't fulfil their obligations then they should forfeit the match and we get the three points. They are a PL club not a Sunday League team.

                It'll definitely get called off if they strike, and it's nonsense

                If they'd used the excuse about fans getting there and the dangers of overcrowding it would be more believable than their own staff not being able to walk an extra half a mile

                Complete ****

                    Is the Arsenal game being called off too?
                    Oh I don't know.

                      The tube strike is a pain in the arse but we have buses, trains and taxis. Those staff can get to the ground and if they try to call this off the Premier League should throw the book at them.
                      Never knowingly optimistic

                        Nope, them and the West Ham games going ahead just fine.

                            Interesting.

                            It's worth noting though that during last week's strike there was a 2 hour queue to get onto the platforms at Clapham Junction. If people are expected to get to the game in other ways, then it increases pressure on those routes.

                            The Emirates is also better connected than Craven Cottage.
                            Oh I don't know.

                              It'll be absolutely rammed on the trains no doubt, that should be their excuse, not their own staffing abilities.

                              And they'll get a hefty fine from the PL too apparently

                              I'm torn. I'd obviously like the game to go ahead, but if there's another strike there is zero chance I'm braving public transport.

                                Ahhh those poor cockney's have to walk 20 minutes to the ground. Bless them they might get a little wet in the rain or cold. Can't have that now so better call the game off.

                                LOAD OF ****.

                                More like their players are ****ed after last nights game and won't recover in time so better blame the underground.
