The Etihad is hosting a concert that day.

| The Magic Weekend is scheduled to suit SKY, it is one of the 'events' it uses to try and stop people cancelling SKY Sports after the Football season ends.
I don't think being up against the FA Cup is that big of a deal, its not the event it was.

Personally, as much as I wish Hull City well, I'm not that interested. If the rugby wasn't on then I would watch, but as it is I will be plumping for the rugby whilst keeping an eye on what is going on at Wembley. However attendances and viewing figures will be hit hard imo. There are plenty of people in Hull who follow a rugby team and City. Those people have a choice of watching City in their first ever FA cup final, or watching a derby that happens 4 times per year. Tough call.

| TBH I think the CC Final and the Magic Weekend should swap dates. It'd mean the Magic Weekend has a lot more riding on it as it'll be nearer to the play-offs so more build-up and the CC Final was always better in April/May.

The RFL reckon they are 60% up on ticket sales compared to last year

Quote Easty“Ticket sales for Magic Weekend are up over 60 per cent year on year and we are experiencing similar trends with the Tetley’s Challenge Cup final and First Utility Super League Grand Final."'"

| Wouldn't be a problem if the FA Cup Final was still held at its traditional kick off time, but that competition has become very secondary in the football calendar with it being more a distraction for most clubs......although one of our resident experts in his incessant/compulsive need to always seem to be right on everything claims that not to be the case.

Who says the FA cup isn't a side show to the premiership, the race for the premiership and the Champions League? It most assuredly is!

I know it is, some 'others' didn't previously......(or did but are so stuck in auto-pilot to knock British RL on every angle they backed the wrong horse on this occasion by not thinking it through.)
