The Spirit of Shankly have claimed the Football Association's decision not to rearrange Liverpool's FA Cup semi-final with Manchester City is a "purely financial '' one.
And the Liverpool supporters' union say fans of both clubs have been treated as an "afterthought" in a strongly-worded statement released in tandem with City counterparts, the We Are 1894 group. Thousands of fans will face a logistical nightmare for the game after it was confirmed there would be no trains running from Liverpool Lime Street to London Euston between April 15 and 18.
Avanti West Coast confirmed it will not be running any trains into the capital from the North West over Easter weekend because of engineering work scheduled to take place across a number of locations. The travel company said further work is also slated on the West Coast Main Line, which will cause further alterations and disruption.
