Holding FA Cup semi finals at Wembley Stadium will devalue the prize of reaching the final and take away some of the magic of the FA Cup.
The FA claim their decision is to allow more fans to attend the semi finals, yet this season both semi finals saw empty seats in stadia with less capacity than the new Wembley. They should respect the fans as we are not stupid.
The FA's decision is purely based on recouping some of the money they wasted on the stadium overspend and the wages that are still being paid to Sven-Goran Eriksson. Wembley is for Cup Finals, always has been, always should be.
We, the undersigned, call on the FA to use their common sense and respect the views of the majority of true football fans by reversing the decision to play FA Cup semi finals at Wembley from 2008.
