Let's face it, they are not going to move it from Wembley due to its 'iconic' status as the home of English football.
Other venues are no guarantee of a big crowd if the clubs are not well-supported. When Torquay played Stevenage in the final at Old Trafford in 2011, there were only 11,484 there.....
The fact is, last Sunday was a bit unusual due to the Blackpool 'situation' (for which I tend to admire rather than blame the absent Blackpool fans).
In the circs, the atmosphere was OK for for a big and impersonal place. Must have been better than Burton-Fleetwood in 2014 - only 14,007 at that one!
