Sweet FA – FA Cup Semi Final

Sweet FA - FA Cup Semi-Final The FA’s response to the FA Cup semi-final between Liverpool FC and Manchester City FC on Easter weekend, when there are no direct trains from either city to London, is to charter 100 free coaches. A case of too little, too late, it also does nothing for the majority of fans involved. Expecting a minimum of 66,000-plus supporters to travel to Wembley from the northwest makes little sense to begin with, but without the availability of train travel it is ridiculous. The FA, according to Network Rail bosses, were [...]

Wembley Semi-Final Travel Chaos

Rail disruption Spirit of Shankly and all Liverpool FC supporters along with City’s 1894 Group and fans of Manchester City FC celebrated on Sunday at reaching the FA Cup semi-final.  Yet rather than basking in the anticipation of the match, to be played on Saturday 16 / Sunday 17 April, it was, for all involved, not a case of “We’re on our way to Wembley” but “How will we get to Wembley?” Over the upcoming Easter weekend, when the game is scheduled, there are no trains between Euston and Milton Keynes, meaning there is no [...]
