| Hillsborough holds 39,000, though hasn't been anywhere near full this season, we had 37,000 in for the last game of last season, the police and the "safety advisory group" wouldn't allow us to use the North West Corner (segregation issues).
FA Cup semi finals being played at Wembley stems back to '93 when we ANNIHLATED Sheff Utd at Wembley (2-1, after extra time  ). The FA had said Arsenal vs Spurs (I think?) would be played at Wembley but we'd have to play our semi final at E**and Ro*d, as you can imagine the Sheffield folk kicked up a fuss and it got moved, and I think they have pretty much been at Wembley ever since, obviously not when the old one was being knocked down and the new one built.
As for it being the only ground to get all of City/Man Ure fans in, maybe if the FA gave them a fair proportion of tickets!! They've been allocated around 34,000 seats each which means almost a third of Wembley's capacity will be taken up by the corporate prawn sandwich brigade, which I think is a joke, punishing the proper fans (I'm informed Man U do have some!) certainly in City's case.

| It was actually 16,014  which is a miracle in itself considering the dross that's been on show this season. The 37k was a one off as everyone knows due to the relegation shootout between us and Pal, your boys will be lucky to even have one of those this season!!

Are we to infer from this that you wanted the kick-off time changing because you couldn't come at 3 pm ?

| 3pm on the Saturday is fine for me. Could n't give a monkeys about soccer! Having been brought up on Rugby League since the 1960s have never understood the attraction of soccer. Too many overpaid primadonnas trying to cheat and antagonise the ref.

No idea too busy watching Rugby League on a Saturday afternoon. But I presume they did then, just as they do today!
