since the final will be contested by the 2 top Manchester teams, is this the cue for the FA to move the final away from Wembley to a more sensible (and nearer to Manchester) venue?

One big problem is that Wembley's capacity is 90,000 whereas Old Trafford, the biggest Premier League ground, is only 74,310. Given that the tickets are already sold, I don't know how they'd deal with that difference in a way that anybody would want.
Another issue is that most Man Utd fans don't live anywhere near Manchester ...

Even as we speak, every coach operator within striking distance of Manchester (which is quite a stretch for a coach) will be rubbing their hands with glee. They will make a tidy sum for a day’s hire, charging premium rates because of supply and demand. Whatever they charge, the bookings will come flooding in. National Express will lay on as many extras as they can. Who knows? Supporters may find it is more convenient (and certainly more reliable) to travel by road.
Meanwhile the unions continue to jeopardise their industry. The way to sort this out is for the government to close the network at the start of the next strike. It should reopen when the staff agree to return to work normally. It will concentrate the minds on both sides.
