There were about 83k there today which is way down on what it should be.
I don't think they will properly get a full house there for the cup final until they move the semi finals to other neutral grounds - such as the Principality, Villa Park etc.
Today was the third time Man City have been to Wembley in 2026.
Principality has the Community Shield this year so they can use that as a trial.

The only reason the community shield is in Cardiff is because the weekend are playing there at the same dates, no way the fa will move the fa cup semis anywhere other than Wembley.

There was a time that they played the semi finals at Villa Park.
I think they should go back to that or other neutral grounds, because it's devaluing trips to Wembley in my opinion.
