FA cup final Wigan and Manchester both north west clubs fans 200 plus miles away.

Cue the FA to schedule a five fifteen late afternoon kick off.

Virgin trains cannot schedule late train so fans can't travel by train. This was clearly known when they set the time train is one of the prime methods of travel to wembley wth direct link from Euston.

You could not make it up could you

I've heard that the change of kick off time is to attract bigger TV audiences oversea, in particular the USA.

Can these fans not drive to London or get a coach and/or stay over?

Yes but once again the real fans are p1ssed upon. It's great the fans in the USA want to watch but not at the expense of those attending the game.
