Stop FA cup semi finals being played at Wembley

Rejected 15 signatures

What the petition asks

Enforce the FA to play semifinals on neutral venues away from Wembley. Going back to how it used to be.
Because Wembley should only be used for the final. All football fans say the same, even MP’s who follow football must also agree. Plus semifinal’s at Wembley just isn’t the same and shows the FA’s disrespect for the fans.

Why it was rejected

It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.

This is a decision for the FA, not the UK Government or Parliament.
