    Whine FA Cup Semi final

    Who in there right mind would put a game of this size in a stadium that can only holf 41000, West Ham have 21500 season ticket holders and god knows how many club members. By the time you take all the people that dont even know who is playing out of the crowd and the corparates and shit you are left with say 39000 and with and allocation of about 20500 each side there are not enough tickets for season ticket holders let alone anyone else. They should have played both games at Old Trafford where the capacity is 68000.

    Totally Agree, I am a WHUFC Club Member living in Scotland, can only afford to get to the odd game. Would have loved to see this game played at Old Trafford as I would have been able to get a ticket. Looks like I'm gonna have to watch it on the telly again.

    We would have loved to have you at the Millennium. A Cardiff/West Ham love-in would have been very entertaining.

    It should be mate! It was 69070 at the weekend (partly down to not gettin all 71000 seats fitted in time and also down to Birmingham not selling thier away allocation)

    It'll be 76,000 before the end of the season (for example the england friendly matches etc)

    Is the other Semi between the two most defensive yet negative teams in the league at old trafford instead of the west ham/boro/charlton one?

    Have chelsea got enough fans to half fill old trafford?
