If this were to happen if would be the end of magic weekend. No way it would make money. Expand sl to 14 in 2021 with London one side that comes up then guarantee it will be held in London for a few years to promote the game there. Maybe bring cc final up north to compensate
The unusual loop fixtures had Hull in France twice, let’s say a cup draw, happens as well, “ as it did this year, luckily at home” then I tell the wife we’re off for another weekend in France for the magic, and who knows a play off game as well at the end of the season.
I’m all for European expansion, but until England treats its pensioners to a bit more dosh, it would break my bank this time.
London played Toronto three times in Canada last year. To their credit some fans mad all three trips. It got progressively more expensive as the season went on.
For what it is worth I think Magic distorts the season and should be abandoned.
Quote: Him "It’s a ridiculous idea. At least 10 of the 12 clubs will be from northern England. It’s an event designed to make money and/or help expand the game.
Holding this in France would do neither.
If you want to expand Catalans support or the game in France then you can do that with targeted Catalans or Toulouse games.
The aim for the game in France should be getting Catalans avg attendance up to 10,000 and Toulouse up to the 8,000 generally seen as needed to break even in SL.
It concerns me that this idea is even contemplated by Catalans and SL. It would be a bizarre waste of resources from the sport.'"
