The RFL has confirmed details of the two Carnegie Challenge Cup semi-finals following consultation with the clubs, broadcasters and the two venues.

The first semi-final, Wigan Warriors v St Helens will be staged at The Halliwell Jones Stadium, Warrington on Saturday August 6 with a 4.30pm kick off.

The second semi-final, Castleford Tigers v Leeds Rhinos will be staged at Keepmoat Stadium, Doncaster, on Sunday August 7 with a 3.15pm kick off.

Both matches will be broadcast live on BBC2.

Quite surprised they didn't play the Worriers v Stains game @ Bolton...bigger crowd. Ah well, suppose it's good for us....money for ground rental and at least it's being kept within the game.

Queue the backlash for the decision to show the game "only" on BBC2

can I get BBC2 in Florida ?

Cue the moaning because the groin is too small.

You can have surgery for that

Hope all the Wire fans come to show their support like they did for the Wigan v Catalan Semi final a few years ago!

Cheering for Worriers or Stains

That's like picking between drowning or electrocution

I'll be taking a wire brush and a bottle of Detol to the first home game after the semi, and scrub my seat thoroughly. Just the thought of some smelly pie or a bin dipper sat in my seat makes me sick in my own mouth.

Reebok is unavailable that weekend

I lost interest in this competetion on Saturday afternoon.

I shall be on holiday that week which is good as I feel physically sick at the prospect of them using our town and our stadium.

It's like the two people you hate most in this world having a threesome with your bird.
