Rejected petition Return the FA Cup Final to a 3pm kick-off on the first Saturday AFTER the end of the Premier League

More details

Remember the good old days when everyone looked forward to the FA Cup final at 3pm on a Saturday afternoon AFTER the regular season ended? Now teams that win through to the Final face having their big day overshadowed by other games, like 2011 Cup Final where Man United winning the League took the shine off Man City winning the Cup.The Government should return the Cup Final to 3pm on the first Saturday AFTER the season ended as part of a return to family values.
