| Isn't the keepmoat an all seater, no one likes that if they have the choice.

Headingley is too big for a Hull vs London fixture IMO. 10k max would be the crowd. That's a half empty Headingley.

A half empty Headingley looks better than a half empty most grounds.

| Assuming Wigan beat Widnes on Monday, common sense dictates that we should be playing in the Sunday Semi Final, as we've got St Helens on Monday 22nd.
Then again, the RFL and Common Sense go together like Polar Bears and the Sahara.

Does it need re-inforcing once more that the sport of Rugby League does not revolve entirely around the requirements of Wigan?

Aww, poor Wigan
They need the RFL to look after them

Not that I agree, but I think my point is more not to take it to a ground that would be more than half empty!
And with Headingley, it would be hard to disguise the lack of attendance as most fans would be situated in the South Stand (out of view of the camera).

| Doncaster would be ideal for a Hull v London or Huddersfield semi.

| If you play London you could realistically play it at the Huntington Stadium.

| I suppose to be fair the London game would need to be in the midlands but that won't happen.
If its against Wigan then for the good of the attendance they should play it at Leigh. If it's Widnes then they should play it at Warrington.
The Wire vs Hull game should be at Huddersfield. I reckon that will see the first decent semi final crowd for a while.

If we get through we play Saints the Monday before so I guess we'll be pushing for the Sunday.
Somebody on our board said they'll definitely have the better tie on the Saturday as that's what BBC will want. If that's the case then Wire and Hull will be the Saturday game.

| I'm hearing Hudds isn't available on facebook, don't know if that's true, just play it on this side, Saints will do.
