We will take 10k.

Wonder whether the fact that the dates might interfere with the football season start will affect where Leeds / Sainnts play, as I would imagine that both DW and Hudds may be unavailable.

has anyone got a strimmer for the fletcher end. Seems like the perfect venue!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

They could play it at Wrexham.

Play the semi in Barcelona and try to better the crowd they got last time! That would be fantastic!

People will say Wigan slipped up in 2007 but that was a pretty poor Wigan side under Brain Noble and our team was always losing silly games. Warrington have not lost any silly games so far.

Play it at Widnes, we cant all afford trips to France willy nilly you know

You just want us to have as hard a job as possible to get to the final. Bloody Wigan fans are as clear as glass.

Yes we have to beat a (bottom of) Super League side. I know what you are saying but this is the best possible outcome and we should be very pleased.

Of course any team can beat any other on the day, but as I say I'd take us to win 9/10 games against them on a neutral venue.

Unless it's in the south of France, it's going to be a home game pretty much.

I would have wanted the same if it was Wigan playing them, even if it meant I couldn't go. I am a fan of RL before being a fan of Wigan.

What did us playing that semi in 2007 actually achieve for the game in terms of coverage? Not alot but it had the potential.

Catalans are playing poor this year and the game needs a boost down there because crowds are on the slip.

18,000 were in Barcelona for a normal league game, I think they could get 30,000 with some extra effort for a semi.

Is it being a bit premature booking train travel and booking hotel and getting tickets for the final........

Well its tought cos they on order!!!!

Agreed

I for one will be absolutely gutted if this is played in Spain or France!
Widnes was a great day out last year, be nice to go back.

We will be going there next year anyway.

Headingley.

Catalans to fly into Leeds & Bradford airport

Hope not Headingly.

Sporny Barstewards!

See you in the final

I really doubt it will be in paris/barcelona

after the semi i think wire go to catalans and some people cant afford going to barcelona then perpignan , i maybe wrong but its around that time anyway

i think leigh or widnes for me

What about the Catalans fans?

They have to come over here every other week.

what fans

just booked the 9th off work.. i have the feeling there could be a hangover around that day.

Have just spoken to the R.F.L. ticket office and it could be as late as Friday before there is an announcement on the venues.

I need to book a flight back even if it is in Leigh or Widnes.

I think Widnes because there won't be big numbers crowd wise from Catalan..

Best draw we could have hoped for IMO. But then again Catalans have nothing to play for but this now, so that will pose some problems for us. Havin a full strength team, we should wipe the floor with them, but I doubt it'll happen.

If people didn't think we had a tough run last year with Wigan, Hull KR and Hudds, then if we win this year havin to beat Hudds, Bradford, Catalans and either Saints or Leeds, we will have certainly earned it.

From 2006 when they first came into super league they have not been far behind wire in terms of crowds



Infact quite a few of their crowds have been higher than warrington.
