I think its disgraceful in the fact it devalues the cup the whole i idea of getting to the final besides trying to win it was a trip to wembley.
its very simple play them at another stadium, Arsenal would have done the job tickets go to season ticket holders first and screw the suits... they can have any left overs..
give the peoples game back to the people.....
As you can see its a touches a nerve with me lol

Me also,the idea of a national stadium after they pulled down the original Wembley was never really discussed. Always felt that if we must have one it should have been built in the Midlands not in one of the most expensive cities in the world. Now because it cost so much to build the only way they can make it pay is to screw with the tradition of the cup and play the semi final's there as well and charge the poor fan's a fortune for the privilege. Can you imagine how much it will cost an average supporter to go to the semi and the final.I dont think you would get much change out of £500! all things taken into account. The really sad thing is the powers that be dont care.It really isn't our game any more. www.guardian.co.uk/football/blog/2011/apr/14/fa-cup-semi-final-wembley

I would like the FA to answer why England have stopped playing their games around the country like they did when they where building the new Wembley.
Would it not be more fair to play any group games at Wembley but all friendlies should be played around the country.
England are no longer a national side they are a team that plays in London with the majority of attending fans from the south and they wonder why they can not sell out Wembley for every match!!!

Just seen a press release from Chelsea saying next season they are classing games against the top 6 as bigger games and changing the rating to a AA match and of course putting the ticket price up to £88 !!!!!! and a discounted price of £ 42 for a child
Its a Joke
bet the others follow suit now

I didn't go to Wembley for the play-off final for all those reasons above. We don't need a national stadium as we have capable grounds all around the country which could host England games and give some fans who can't afford the travel expense a chance to see England play...(please note : that's ENGLAND NOT INGERLAND!!). Also, playing semi's at Wembley is purely for money and denegrates the traditions of the FA Cup! I don't give money to the BNP, I don't give money to the NF and I don't give money to the robbing bastards who own Wembley who are all a bunch of !
