I made the point on another thread, but it doesn't surprise me in the slightest. Sales for last years semi were very poor, and there was no reason to think this year would be any different. The RFL made the correct call with the size of venue.

What seems to be overlooked here is that this is the second weekend of the school holidays meaning that many families will be on their annual holidays.
So it's hardly surprising that sales are sluggish.

Cas have about 70 tickets left apperently, And a couple of hundred supposedly left at Leeds

Seems the RFL got the ground choice Bang On.

Yes and the good thing is there should be equal amount of supportes on both sides.
I guess the only way we will out sing you is in the final 10 minutes when we are confident of revisiting Wembley again.

Shame there's nowt decent to loot in Cas, the in-bred village will be empty it seems.

800 tickets being returned to RFL at 4.30pm from HQ

That is nearly 3K below capacity, plenty of empty seats!

any idea if its still not a sell out if they will be available on the day from the keepmoat office as i live fairly close

Not convinced this is proof the RFL got the groun choice spot on, personally I think the low sales is because of the ground choice.

Personally, I'm not going, partly because I leave for holiday early the day after, but could not be bothered messing around in traffic around Doncaster, when I can easily watch on the TV on this occassion.

Had it been at the Galpharm or closer still where it should have been, I would have made the effort.

true, but the only reason I am going is that its in Doncaster, as it makes it 40 miles closer to me than Huddersfield would have been

Accepted, but your in a minority Leicester of fans oustide of Leeds supporting the club. I am just pointing out why I think sales are down with respect to fans local to the club.

It's quite ironic though that having been all over this year watching Leeds, and gone to quite a few Cas home matches, that I was away when we played Cas at the Jungle, can't be bothered with the Semi of the Mickey Mouse cup, and unfortunately am away whilst we are playing them at home.

Previous semi-final attendances have shown that there's no need for a venue the size of the Galpharm. I think your sentiments about not being bothered about the Mickey Mouse Cup would better explain the apathy for semi-finals for the majority, rather than the location.

Would it be advisable to go towards the lake side centre, then on to the ground from there?

We're parking the other side of the lake and walking across (not Bruce Almighty styleeee obviously). Is that where the Lakeside Centre is?

Lakeside shopping centre is same side as the ground , the other side of the lake is where pictures, donny dome, and asda is probably the best bet,
