Where should FA cup semi finals be held

[Flynn]

Also. The scum game

 

[Bus-Conductor]

Anywhere but Wembley.

 

[Nerine]

I voted for "somewhere else" - White Hart Lane.

 

[Qualsonic]

Why Twickenham?

Personally think it takes something away from big Wembley final by having semis there too.

I'd have them @ Millenium Stadium

 

[fridgemagnet]

Any neutral venue. In this case as they aren't in it probably Newcastle or Villa or Millennium Stadium

 

[Archibald&Crooks]

The scenario where we had Spurs and Arsenal fans all traipsing up the road to Manchester for a semi final was just ridiculous but now there's the West Ham stadium so that opens it up a little. The problem is, people were complaining about lhow many people could get to see the game when they were being held at Villa Park etc etc, personally I thought that was tough shit, nobody complained about that in the early rounds, the thing worked perfectly for like, ever, until money became a serious factor. But I think now the TV money has grown to such a level that it shouldn't be an issue any more. I'd just go back to neutral venues

Meanwhile three years ago the then FA Chairman said about Wembley........

"The FA took a commitment when they built the place that the semi-finals would be here. So that is where it is at the moment unless the contractual situation changes. I can't see that happening."

So we have to suck it up.

Non-Wembley neutral venue.

 

[Monkey boy]

White Hart Lane

Why Twickenham?

Only because I thought it unlikely any non London grounds would be considered and the thought of emirates or the council estate would be unsavoury to some.

Depends who's playing. If it's chelsea v arsenal i'd have it played in allepo.

I think the people of Aleppo have been tortured enough.

 

[worcestersauce]

Stade de France, we could make a weekend of it.
Plus April in Paris! I love Ella Fitzgerald.
Actually A&C has nailed it, this is exactly the kind of game Wembley would have been chosen for.

 

[Matthew Gilbert]

TBH, the more games we can have at Wembley the better if that is to be our home for one season. Hopefully there are a number of friendlies planned their before next season too.

 

[ebzrascal]

Millennium for the Arsenal v Man City and maybe London Stadium for Spurs v Chelsea

 

[millsey]

Old school villa park and old Trafford semis

 

[easley91]

Lol at people saying WHL when were drawn as the away side

Wembley is fine, easy enough journey.
