First time in 19 years, amazing feeling!
Who do you want in the semi-final and at what stadium?
I'd like Wigan at St Helens (Even split of the stadium, decent size too!)
Castleford in the final for a War of the Roses clash and the two most attractive sides in the competition.

I'd like to play Warrington if they beat Wigan this weekend.
Wigan are getting their players back from injury and will be much stronger by the time the Semi-Final is played.
To be honest if we play like we did last night we shouldn't be too concerned about who we get drawn against!

I think we'll get Wigan at Warrington or Warrington at Wigan, depending who wins that game. War of the roses final as others have said. Shame really I would have preferred someone at Huddersfield as it seems to be a 'lucky' ground for us.

Winning the semi-final is potentially the springboard to much more support. I firmly believe a trip to Wembley is long overdue and will propel the club to a level the city hasn't witnessed since the late 60's and early 70's. Get to Wembley and it will change the whole profile of the club within the area.
After losing the previous three semi-finals I'm crossing everything that it's 4th time lucky.

Yes, get to Wembley and all the ' Iv'e supported them for years ' crowd will all be coming out of the woodwork

The four grounds for next round are Warrington, Saints, Leeds or Doncaster. Doncaster will only be used if it's Leeds v Hull I think

I think if we played Wigan or Warrington at Leigh it would be a 12,000 sell out which would lead to disappointment for some supporters. However, if it is a sell-out the rush for tickets would definitely create a huge buzz for the game!
When Castleford played Widnes a few years ago at Leigh the game sold out so you would expect the same for Salford v Wigan or Warrington, especially when you consider Salford and Wigan/Warrington are in such close proximity to the LSV and the vast majority supporters could get a taxi for £20/£30 to the game.
Looking a previous years semi-final this morning most games average between 11-15,000 so they may look to play the Lancashire semi-final at Langtree Park or the Halliwell Jones (If Wire don't beat Wigan).

Assuming Wigan beat wire today, personally I fancy Leeds at hudds. Been a good ground to us recently, it's a good day out, and I think l Leeds are the weakest team left (barring wire). Expecting Wigan to hit some form once they get their main men back.
That said, I really don't care who we get or where.

Watching the Warrington v Wigan game; I wouldn't mind either of these in the Semi Final. They are both so guilty of basic errors, which is something we've managed to cut out of our game this season.

I fancy Leeds at Huddersfield. Cas in the final to get our revenge for 1969.

Yes I was amazed to see SRD at the bottom of the errors made league table, excellent. The semi? Just amazed to be there, won't matter who or where just as nerve jangling whatever!
