HKR... Wigan for a day.... that's for sure

Being a Platt Wazzer yourself Roy I'll take your word for it!

You don't chew any more do you? Problems with the dentures????

Glad to have you on Board! Hope all the rest of your lot are as well, God that would be amazing!

All my own teeth.....................yet !!!



I prefere 'Beech Nut' or 'Bazooka Joes' myself !!!!!

I don't think Widnes will hold 16.5 million!

I can't speak for all 10 million of us

but I think the majority will be.
Best wishes and if you get to Wembley all of us that go will be on your team

Bolton are playing Hibs in Jussi Jaaskelainen's testimonial on 8th August so, a week before the Premier League starts, I'd be very surprised if it hosted the game. That, and it's too big anyroad after the crowd when the two last met. Don't forget that the Stobart has been expanded since that semi as well.

Saints-Hudders at Wire (no grounds of the right size in Yorkshire apart from Donny, which is too far out of the way for both sides)
Wigan-Wire at Widnes (no other logical venue, bar the LSV

)

headingley?

Far, far too big. Would logically expect, at the most, 5-6,000 from each club, and that'd look pretty poor at Headingley, I reckon. Haven't Saints played Huddersfield at Warrington in a previous semi final?

2004 aye. In fact it was the exact same draw then with Wigan v Wire at Widnes.

would have thought RFL would want one semi in yorkshire, the huddersfield semi is the obvious choice.
what do you reckon, about an hour and half, hour 40mins from st helens to doncaster?

Would probably take above an hour for Huddersfield to get there as well and, with few neutrals from the local area, I can't see that one. Only reason it was so well-attended at Donny last year is because of Wakefield's proximity to the M1 and, well, nowhere's near Hull



Again, in 2004 there weren't any Yorkshire semi finals - they just haven't got the 12-18k sort of grounds that you need for the semi finals.

The att in 2004 for the same fixture was 11,175
so with the capacity at Widnes now being 14k it meant be a good bet it will be there

I think itll be at Widnes.

Yes they did, but I think they'll take one to Yorkshire this time.

Headingley for me with a 12/13k crowd likely.

Shudds v stains @ Dire or leeds
Wigan v dire @ Widnes or yorkshire

Take your pick one in Lancs & the other in Yorkyland

Wigan V Stains Final - ???? Remember 1989 the 27 - 0 final, bring back




Can you see the Fat Man

Its the biggest game of both clubs for years and who knows the next chance either team will be this close to Wembley?

The RFL should grow some stones and market the game and go for a big crowd rather than rely on the die hards and play it safe at Widnes which is easy.

Can you see the Fat Man

Double Header at City of Manchester anyone?

yes please

I've never been to bed with an ugly woman.




But I've woke up with a few.

Awesome idea that is.

It is.....you could treble header it MM style and have another outstanding SL fixture that weekend.

The RFL would make a mint and so would Manchester.

Its the Eng v Aus Ashes test at Headingley the same weekend as the semis so there's no chance of it being there.

Both Semi's at Widnes I reckon.
