This year, in the event of extra time and penalties both sets of supporters would struggle to catch the last train from Euston, while Wigan fans will be up against it even with a result inside 90 minutes. With the exception of Chelsea's trip to Aston Villa for a Both sets of supporters have hit back at the FA over the kick-off arrangements while the Football Supporters' Federation also condemned the decision.

It said in a statement: "Fans of Manchester City and Wigan Athletic are being asked to pay for an overnight stay in London to satisfy the whims of a TV company.

Part of what makes the FA Cup great is its tradition but that tradition has been eroded over the years thanks to the abolition of replays, too many semis at Wembley, and now, late kick-offs. Jason Taylor, a Wigan Athletic Supporters Club spokesman, said: "It seems the FA are more interested in what the television companies want than the logistics of supporters getting to and from their final. It's not just us, it affects Manchester City as well. They are only 18 miles away and we will be using the same roads and, if it was possible, train lines.

It was a nightmare for the semi-final. But the TV companies want a late time to attract a bigger global audience and that is taking precedence over supporters. We won't have a problem selling our ticket allocation for the final but the day is a lot more difficult for supporters than it needs to be and the FA should consider that. With a 3pm kick-off you would have plenty of time to catch the train even if the final went to extra time and penalties.

If it had been two London teams like Chelsea and Millwall then fair enough because they will be home for eight o'clock. Because people have got a four- to six-hour journey to get there and a four- to six-hour journey coming back means some won't be getting home until gone two o'clock in the morning: it's absolutely ludicrous.
