No I would like the semis to be played at neutral venues, which are roughly equidistant to the competing sides.

Playing at Wembley should be left to the final of competitions.

I would be surprised if Bolton vs Stoke is close to selling out at Wembley.

You don't think playing a semi is a nice experience for the players and fans to get?  I think it would be for lower division teams and even the likes of Stoke and Bolton won't experience it that often.   I'd have thought the fans would love a day out at Wembley.  I don't see it as a bad thing necessarily.

Plus the FA needs the money init, Wembley cost a few quid

the reason wembley is special is because it only used to be finals.  it completely de-values the stadium imo.

If leeds were in the semi's i would much prefer to go to Old Trafford/Villa Park etc even if it meant less tickets.  At wembley you lose loads to corporate anyway its not like you get 40k for each team.

pretty sure wembley is equidistant from manchester and errrm, manchester

and not far from being equidistant from bolton and stoke

semis have been held at wembley for 20 years now, it ain't going to change

have they, 20 years?  are you sure?

you used some big words so i dont understand them. 

I thought semi-finals were at neutral grounds near where the teams playing were from up until a few years ago.
