should F A cup semi finals be held at wembley?

[bowie]

with this weekends semi finalists coming from the north should they be held at wembley. the cup final should be the "road to wembley"
its all about the F A and money money money.
should be held elsewhere i think.

No. It makes a mockery of the occasion.

[stuvts]

I agree with nara ...... mockery!!

[southbrook]

absolute joke IMO.... costs a fortune to go wembley.... if they make the final..... another fortune!! all they want to do is exploit the extortionate prices as many times as possible... not sure as I have never been but a mate went and said they check you on the way in for food and drink concealed then charge you ?20 for chicken and chips / burger and chips etc etc and about ?6 a beer.... imagine a family of 4 including accomodation, travel etc etc....I dread to think!!

i dnt knw, were else would u have a semi?local venue inbetween the 2 sides???? atleast in england wembley is full, i totally dnt think the scottish semis should be at hampden, look at the farce yest, 2 teams at wot 57000 hampden and only 7000 in ground. english are ok, but i see wot u mean with cost wise, but certainly scottish no way

yep greed ...greed greed look how many games they have staged since it was built american footie lots of friendlies etc ..money money .. i always belived the national stadia should be in the middle of the country ..but goverments look after london always ..and why on earth another stadia for the olympics is beyound me ... i thought there were cut backs in this country ,,,just a whole load of bollocks and greed ..

No doubt ticket prices are a rip off, must worse then the old stadium. Food is expensive but not quite that expensive. Burger and chips is around ?9, beer for ?4 (brand available depends on events apparently).

But I found the facilities good, viewing is very good compared to the old stadium and no problems with transport. Dead simple getting there by train and there is a walkway from the station to the stadium.

eye cardiff was good when we went ( semi vrs manu) ..even though we got flippin hammered 4 . 1 ..good laugh though..

[nara]

...were else would u have a semi

Where they used to have them!

[boomer39]

Where they used to have them!

trouble is, since all- seating, most ground are 2 small., only cold twafford,the emirates and sjp are big enough... but cardiff is ideal....

[martinkaos]

stoke vs bolton should have been held at old trafford closer too the fan base..

[thered]

simply no should be at the nearest neutral venue it devalues the cup going to wembley for semi's

playing at wembley should be an honour every ~~~~ers played their nowadays
