That's what happens when you have a dumb ape in charge

week before semi finals, wigan play saints we play salford, good opportunity to rest the big guns citing niggling injuries and send the fringe players

hull fc official twitter seem to think we will play on the saturday at keepmoat, bbc will probabaly want our game that day too, no disrespect to wire or wakey

What are you on about? Our last 4 CC SFs against Yorkshire teams have been played in Yorkshire. In fact we rarely draw Yorkshire teams in SFs, you have to go back to 96 to get the 4th.

Why would we be favourites when you're above us in the league and beat us a few weeks ago?

well your certainly the beebs favourites

Keepmoat would be a mistake.

Headingley all day long for me

Another odd post. Strange on here.

Yorkshire is god's own country while lancashire (cheshire, merseyside etc) is the cesspit of the UK. No one in their right minds would force a Yorkshireman to enter lancashire any more than they absolutely have to

wigan installed as favourites with one bookmaker on wire forum, then warrington, us and wakey

typical comments from the fat neanderthol playing it down

Bookies have you as favourites, I think?

Wane always portrays his opposition as favourites. He thinks it's mind games.

In 2008 we played Wakey at Donny and it was aswell out, we were rubbish that year and Wigan are much better supported than Wakey, surley Donny is too small.

Not too worried as I'm a true supporter and one of the founder members of the Radford cheerleader squad so I will get a ticket.

Surely like ickle Samantha you only need a sick note from your mum to be excused

if donny is too small, so is leigh for both us and wigan, both have similar capacities, donny may have a couple thousand more spaces

Because you're Wigan,you can do no wrong,have the worlds super doopest player and are responsible for Brexit.The sun shines out of your ar£e,lobbies is a Michelin starred meal and you are right that a breadcake is a .

That's why it'll probably be hudds or Leeds

but this is the rfl, they would rather have smaller full stadiums with some fans missing out, even new fans than playing at huddersfield or leeds and having an empty stand

(apart from last seasons wire v kr) few previous semi finals have been at leigh or salford??

common sense prevails both games should be at them venues

May be for the wire v wakey game but not ours, can see 17-18k for ours

hope so, still dont think the pies will travel in massive numbers, 4000-5000 at best if at donny on friday night

If the rfl have any sense (which we all no the dont have an ounce lol) our game will be the Saturday

Not disrespectful at all, your game is biggest of the two all day long, I still say Saturday at Headingly.

This is how sky bet have it.

Wire 6/4
Wigan 2/1
Hull 5/2
Wakefield 10/1

I like us flying under the radar

Hope it's at Headingley, we'd turn it into a home game.

I was a bit worried about the venue, Wakey chairman has said on twitter he would of bit your hand off if someone had offered him Wire in the semi's at Leigh on a Friday night, so presuming we will be at Donny on the Saturday? It holds 15k the attendance v Wakey in the semi in 08 was 14,716. I think we have 6k pass holders and we just took well over 4k to Cas just hope nobody misses out.

I'm from Donny and was at the semi final between Hull and Wakey and it wasn't a sell out. 15500 capacity and I can't see Wigan bringing enough to make or one. Plus if they were losing with 10 minutes to go their seats would be empty lol
