Hopefully the winners of this get papped out in the next round by whoever they get. Two horrible clubs with horrible fans (and players in Leicester's case).
You seem to hate every team you ever mention on here. Is there anyone you actually like?

Slightly different in that the 2014 finals were moved to venues because our national stadium was closed, was an absolute joke they let Rangers* play at home. Wembley is the traditional home of semi finals and the final so should stay there in my opinion.

 

Actually, that's not true. Traditionally,  the semi-finals were played at neutral venues. Villa Park and Old Trafford were regular venues for the semis.

The FA made the change a few years ago because it needed the cash to pay for Wembley after the massive overspend.

Ok, traditionally the wrong word, but they've hosted the semi finals since the new Wembley opened ten years ago, whether it's the right decision for Wembley to host them generally is a different argument, it does host them, and therefore the fact Spurs are there shouldn't matter.

 

Fair enough but "traditionally" was the key word in your post. This is the first time that a semi-finalist has played at home, albeit a temporary home.

Obviously, the final must be played at Wembley but the semi could be moved. Cardiff's Millennium stadium, or whatever it's called now, would a suitable alternative.

Well the majority of fans of both United and Spurs come from London and the surrounding area so it only seems fair that it's played there!!!
