We get the same arguments about the semi final venues not being big enough every year but every year the RFL's choices are proved correct.
I'm not sure Huddersfield Town would want a game played on their pitch a couple of weeks before the Premiership starts anyway.'"
If I remember rightly the 2008 Wakefield semi at the Keepmoat was a 3pm Sunday kick off and a great atmosphere at the ground and round the town beforehand so I'd hope for same again.
Was fairly flat round Donny last year, mind you, wasn't our fault Wigan didn't bring any fans.

Get a who do you want in the final thread, worked for Cas.
I'd be happy with Donny or Hudds and would prefer Hudds, but expect it to be at Donny.

| Don't know what difference there is in time-wise for you lot getting to Donny versus Huddersfield, but the lack of amenities around Donny's ground must make you favour Huddersfield ? The train station is a handy walk from Hudders' ground as well for your train lot. Donny is too isolated for my liking.

| you would like to think the RFL could pre-empt a big crowd for a game, so I would hope the game is at Hudds.
Donny is ok, if you want the game to look small. Some will point back to last seasons game v Wigan in the Semi where they only brought 1500 or so, but hardly surprising on a Friday night.
If there is a situation where by all season ticket holders cannot attend, then it is a poor decision. Hull have around 8000 season pass holders, Leeds will have >10k. Keepmoat (with the segregation put in place, will house not more then 14k.
Hudds all day long for me

| The 2005 semi against Saints when we demolished the cocky feckers drew 16k, keepmoat capacity is just over 15k.
keepmoat is better located for both sets of fans, especially Hull fans by train, however Hudds ground is better in terms of view.
Last years semi-final was awful with FC fans standing ALL the time throughout the game blocking the view with stewards doing sod all. On top of that backwards and forwards for ale every 5 minutes, we certainly won't be sitting with the plebs this year wherever it is.

FFS, do you complain about everything? Are you a woman?

The dates for the semi finals were announced at the start of the season. Same weekend as the last couple of years at least.
I'm happy to be playing on the Saturday and the Keepmoat is the correct choice of venue. Looking forward to it.
