Ferguson unhappy with semi-finals at Wembley

Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson feels staging the FA Cup semi-finals at Wembley devalues the competition. "I agree with David (Moyes) that playing the semi-finals at Wembley devalues the cup," Ferguson told United Review.

"This is a decision by the FA that pushes up costs for the fans.

"It is likely the price of tickets at Wembley will be a lot higher than if the game was at Villa Park.

"Wembley should be reserved for finals, and the least the FA can do now is reduce the Wembley prices to a level more in keeping with those of club tickets."
