Agreed, but the FA cup final hasn't been right for over a decade now. Sad really but times change.

or Villa Park...any of the usual old fa sf venues big enough to hold 50k plus


Think both decisions are a shame, but sign of the times.

I believe it is only this season due to the Champions League Final being played at Wembley.  Rules state that the stadium cannot be used for 2 weeks prior to the game so i think it will be for this season only.

with your current manager, you'll be waiting a while.

You'll be disappointed soon enough.

Play-offs hardly matter. When Wednesday won at Cardiff there wasn't 1 bit of me that thought "wish this was at wembley" promotion is the prize. Championship still get it so thats good as there may be teams in that game that can sell it out.
It's just a one off. IMO it should be Prem final weekend, Fa Cup weekend then CL weekend. They will all have a seperate weekend going forward.
Not a big sacrifice to firstly give our teams the incentive and advantage of a "home" final and secondly show that we can still host major games before the World Cup host is announced.

That weekend in Cardiff got a little bit silly. And I got very sunburnt.
