Liverpool fans celebrate after their team wins the Carabao Cup at Wembley in 2022
Liverpool and Manchester City have each received 34,000 tickets for their FA Cup semi-final at Wembley

The FA Cup semi-finals is one of the most ridiculous stories I have ever heard, says the manager of the Reds.

The Reds will play Manchester City at Wembley. Fans travelling from the north west to London on the West Coast Main Line will not be able to take trains that weekend.

It makes absolutely no sense, I am not sure what the FA thought.

He said that he couldn't believe that things like this could happen with all the information out there.

The mayors of both cities wrote a letter to the FA saying the game should be moved from Wembley.

The FA announced it was putting on free coaches for up to 5,000 City and Reds fans, before Manchester City secured 50 coaches.

There are 34,000 tickets for the game for each club.

I heard the FA put on some coaches on the road, but what is it like to travel four and a half hours to London?

It will probably be 12 because all the coaches are travelling in the same direction.

I am not sure when they had to make a decision.

I think there would have been another weekend between the games. It is more difficult for fans to go to Wembley now that they can.

How I know our people will help them find a way. I am not happy that someone made it complicated for them. You should be able to see your football team in a semi-final.
