No idea that's just where the tfl are allocating tickets from the link on the club website

Given that the City fan got a 3 year banning order for throwing a bottle I hope anyone thinks long and hard about starting any trouble.

fans-2.30 kick off-beers-emotions run high could equal trouble

magic weekend both our fans and leeds fans have let the clubs down last couple of years, also leeds fans fighting at wembley too

i reckon there will be an empty block or at least half of one between both sets of fans

Quote: Cardiff_05 "Or maybe be revolutionary about it and have a semi-final double header, £30 a ticket, hold it at somewhere central with a good stadium and entire package for the matchday. Both games back to back would increase the interest within the game and maybe encourage new fans to go along for the spectacle, it would push up the crowd (especially from a neutral perspective) and the TV audience would be treated to a double header of games that actually mean something as a combination (so long as the BBC would allow their whole BBC 2 afternoon to be dedicated to it instead of their usual rubbish)'"

I love this idea. Similar to magic but more than 2 points at stake. Could of nearly filled Huddersfield with both semis. Would maybe be the shot in the arm cup needs. Would the BBC cover nearly 4hrs of league in one day though

This would be the best idea IMO, can easily do it somehwere central and accessible like bramhall lane or even manchester

Quaint idea, but not reality.

It's naive to think there will not be some Leeds fan who will bring up the uprooting of the posts in 2000 and that some Hull fan will not respond.

Why risk it? Segregation all day long.

Elland Road maybe, still a neutral ground and now it's back in Leeds United hands they may be keen to make money from it where possible. And it's got a bit of Hull FC history attached to it too...

Wouldn't be very neutral though if it was in Leeds.

Home advantage is meaningless in pro sports (for reasons I've explained previously) and elland road isn't headingly. Sure you'd get more Leeds fans than if it were at the keepmoat/KCOM but the reality is the venue in itself with respect to playing performance means nothing.
otherwise why have we lost more at home than away and our really poor performances were at home?

Home advantage meaningless in pro sports? Are you sure about that?

Elland Rd is a horrific ground. I'm 5' 1" and even I struggled with leg room when we went to the 4 Nations Final there years ago. My much taller friend had to watch the game on the concourse as she simply couldn't sit down.

I'm interested in what you say. Why do you think home advantage is meaningless in pro sport, when pretty much every single set of stastics displays that home wins occur more often than away wins. Every now and then an individual team might throw an an anomoly for a short period, but the trends certainly show that home games definitely are an advantage?

icon_biggrin.gif Oh he'll be sure. He's that arrogant, he actually believes the guff he writes and that despite there being no evidence or facts to back up his opinion, we should all deem it credible & not challenge it.

Of course, numerous studies have been conducted by academics into home advantage in sports and found there to be a number of contributing factors. Home crowd influence on the players & officials, travel, "home comforts" etc.

There are anomalies (like us this year), it's not a rule, but the general trend supports home advantage.

Take the Premier League for the 1617 season:
www.soccerstats.com/homeaway.asp?league=england
The vast majority of teams had a higher win rate, more points, more goals scored and less goals conceded at home. Look at Burnley, Spurs, Leicester and even Hull City.

In SL so far this year, only three sides have a better away record than home record (us, Wakey & Hudds).
