Have just caught up and seen the Evanilson sending off. For about the fourth time this week VAR are re-reffing the game and getting involved in subjective decisions that they have no business getting involved in. Exactly what Howard Webb keeps saying he doesn't want to do.
 






Man City fans not bothering to turn up at Wembley for the semi again.
I think football fans are starting to turn their backs on rip off prices. Wembley has been paid for now and Fa need to look into the semi finals being played away from Wembley. Cost is astronomical in London for travel, hotels and the tickets as well as kick off times for those travelling half the country distance to get there.

I actually don't mind the semis being played at Wembley if the demand is there. Clubs of our size don't get the privilege very often and if the demand is there I don't see any reason not to let it happen. That said, there needs to be a northern alternative. I have sympathy for City fans who are obviously a bit drunk on success and don't prioritise yet another Wembley semi. Just sell tickets at reasonable prices and move this game somewhere more sensible. I guess that will be a lot easier to do when Man Utd build their huge new stadium...
