That's if you're daft enough to pay the club prices ... Which I am not.
I also don't live in Leeds, so I have the additional expense of getting to Leeds to rendezvous with trips / or not have a couple of pints whilst I am at the game bacuse I'll have to drive home afterwards. Whilst I am not making that an excuse, I knew of a coach trip with the Leeds Supporters Club that was going for around the same price that I spent on the train. However, with dodgy knees and the thought of sitting jammed up on a coach seat for the best part of 4 hours, compared to the train where I could get up for a stroll / coffee or general move around when I wanted, I know what I'd prefer.
I'm trying to make constructive enhancements to the weekend ... A special train from Lancashire and Yorkshire, reasonably priced for the day and for the weekend and departing at a reasonable time after the last game (say 45 minutes after the last game from Haymarket) could be well-supported.
We're away in Catalan in a month and many people are having to cut their cloth to suit these days and given that my weekend there last year cost around £200, something comparable with a Magic Weekend cost, personally I'd chose France.
If people want to go and spend a couple of hundred pounds on tickets and accomodation in Scotland for MW, then I've no problem with that. Indeed, several of my mates did so, however there are still fans who are not generally 'supporting' the games by not being present. All I am doing is suggesting why those people don't come and possible soloutions to make it attractive for them to attend next time.

Aye, I was pretty shocked that there were no regular services after 8pm, something doing Newcastle, Leeds, York, Wakefield and Bradford on the East coast and similar on the West might have been a good idea, not sure if they do special trains any more, I know they used to be a regular thing in the past.

You're the deluded one sir. As said, it's not the greatest, but it's also not the worst in the league.

Wasn't a dig, it's a fact, which funnily enough is backed up by the board at Castleford who are looking to move into a new stadium before the next round of franchises are given out.

Again, show me where I said it isn't, but it's good enough, which is all that counts.

You're at it again.  I didn't say Craven Park doesn't leave a lot to be desired, but it caters for our needs, and the RFL agrees, happy days eh.
Just leave your £17 at the gate and get on the dock stand next time you visit.

They way your club perform there, as the second club in the city, I understand your want to stay away.
Anyhow let's not thread drift into an East v West slanging match, this is about positives to bring to MM, can you think of any?
