BUT that doesn't account for FA greed and the high cost of building Wembley. I'm surprised they don't play all the games there from the Quarter finals on....CUNTS!

Twickenham is hugely restricted by the local authority for matches, a bit like Wembley they have to get permission from local residents.
Fuck all chance of them agreeing to football.
Villa Park was brilliant, the Emirates, OT and others should be used. Not Wembley for semi's.

Why Twickenham, because it's in London?
Personally, I agree that the semi-finals should be played away from Wembley, but the only venue worth considering for this has to be The Millennium in Cardiff.
They're well versed in hosting football, and did a fantastic job while Wembley was being redeveloped.
This won't happen, of course, as the FA still has a shit load of debt to clear, but it's surely a no brainer to move these games to ensure the final maintains exclusive Wembley history...

Why would anyone want to play football in a non-football stadium?
Oh wait....

"If both Tottenham & Chelsea are both using Wembley next season which sounds likely then I would of thought some England games and the semi finals of next season's FA Cup will need to be staged elsewhere due to the impact on the pitch as much as anything"
Yeah was thinking same, so Anfield, OT, CoM, OS and Emirates would all be in contention for those. Except of course its 2017/18, not next year.

I love Twickenham, but no chance they'd let it be used for "soccer"

Also next season's FA Cup Final will surely have to be staged elsewhere if either Chelsea or Tottenham reach the final.
I would use Cardiff's Millenium Stadium for next season's Semi Final & Final.

Maybe rugby authorities wouldn't want football's big fannies, diving around in their sacred ground.
