    Can’t see how it can happen.
    EFL have privately booked the venue
    CL has nothing to do with FA or EFL so can only be changed if the FA/Wembley cancel the EFL booking.
    Be a bit of a strange message for the FA to say the CL is more important.

    I guess but the Tottenham stadium would make more sense in my opinion.

    Read the thread, mate.? Anyway, as President elect of FIFA, I’ve already decided on Gigg Lane. With proceeds going to the club. My first executive decision. :rolleyes:

    They can but no one is allowed to watch them. Or play in them.

    Villa Park was offered by Villa, simply as its half way between both teams, and doesn’t affect play offs.

    I fully agree - sending teams and fans to Turkey during this pandemic is stupid. Just play it here.

    Not sure having 4 sets of fans potentially meeting in centre of London on same day for 2 cup finals is best idea TBH.
    Any other day would agree

    Not sure why they should move 3 games to accommodate 1 though, surely the champions league final if played in England should be the one to find an alternative to Wembley?

    if only a % attendance is allowed and our game is moved from Wembley to a smaller stadium some fans are going to miss out, why should we suffer to accommodate city and Chelsea fans?

    I agree except it's the fans that suffer. It won't make a hapeth of difference to the clubs and owners.

    Last I heard, UEFA had completely ruled out moving the final from Turkey.
