Magic weekend came at a time when Leeds were playing some of the most awful rugby seen in a generation from a Leeds team. An embarrassing humping from Wigan was always going to happen so apart from those fans who had pre booked the weekend in which the rugby is kind of secondary, its hardly surprising there weren't many up for the single long day trip to Newcastle for that sheeite.

Great to see such a positive attitude towards a side who when doing well have fans everywhere

Hey, that's sport. I'm just saying as it is

I would imagine the large number of finals Leeds have been in in recent years would also play a part in this.

Considering how good Leeds' crowds were this year it would seem a tad disingenuous to have a go at fans for 1 relatively minor event.

It's less than 100 miles.

Then again, we were [ireally[/i sheeite.

Which is how i see it. No disrespect intended but magic weekend is probably a much bigger occasion for the sides who in recent times haven't been fortunate enough to sample seeing their side on the big stage in big finals.

Leeds' crowds this year have been very good considering the on field performances, how long that will continue though without improvement i don't know.

Very much of the opinion that its your money and time, if you decide that you don't want to use up either then that's your prerogative. Following blindly often leads to unwanted situations.

I can't really say owt because I didn't go to the magic weekend last year. (my own Kev Sinfield testimonial match moment)

It will be your cup final...

possibly could be next year... best go get my tickets booked

hope so, the last one was easy enough

Please remove if against board regulations

We double booked for Sat and Sunday nights so have twin rooms available at the Village hotel, prices now gone through roof but if anyone wants one PM me and they will be at the rate we paid, which is £180 per room for the 2 nights i.e. £45 pppn based on 2 sharing.It is currently £185 per night

Through the roof is an understatement - booked ours for Magic & Catalans last week, a week in Spain with flights and transfers to Perpignan is cheaper than two nights in Newcastle.
