Manchester City play Liverpool in one of the FA Cup semi's at Wembley on the weekend of 16th/17th April, which is Easter weekend.
There are NO direct trains running from Manchester or Liverpool that weekend.
Network Rail published their plans for these major engineering works in 2019; they formally contacted the FA a Year ago to tell them that these engineering works would be happening and so not to schedule any major games in London where teams from the North West might be in.......and the FA ignored them!
Result total carnage with fans unable to travel directly by public transport.
The Mayors of Liverpool & Manchester have called for the game to be relocated to a different venue (presumably Old Trafford).
Why is the FA so incompetent?
