Dalglish on FA Cup final

Liverpool manager Kenny Dalglish believes fans are "taken for granted" when it comes to the big events but he is confident supporters will make it to Wembley for the FA Cup final despite travel problems and high ticket demand.

Rail maintenance work over the Bank Holiday weekend, coupled with a 5.15pm kick-off on May 5, means thousands travelling from the north west will have to find alternative transport.

It adds more misery on supporters who have been allocated 25,000 tickets for the final - almost 7,000 fewer than their semi-final against Everton last weekend.

"Sometimes that is the problem when fans are taken for granted - not just our fans but those at all football clubs," said Dalglish.

"That is the decision which has been made and it's been made outside of our control. It could have been made a bit easier for them but they are fantastic fans and they will get there."
