totally agree

Make it more local so the bulk of each teams support can attend without having to book hotels. Sorted.

agree with live wired scrap it for a season opener.for a show piece event it was littered with errors and whistle happy refs..or if we are to have it how about having it at man citys ground.one thing about the up and coming season i think it will be a close run thing for play off places with the winners of the grand final may be coming from 3rd or 4th place

London next (genuinely not because i live here) RL is taking off and it would possibly help boost Quins maybe even the Skolars.

Highbury/New Olympic stadium maybe

The majority of people who seem to have a downer the Magic weekend are the ones who didn't attend! The majority of fans from all the clubs who did attend seemed to have a great time. The weather was good. In fact it was warmer than Murrayfield in May last year! Before the game people were stood outside the pubs enjoying a drink in the sun. Good atmosphere with bands playing inside and outside the grounds.

With poor weather today, the first round matches would have been played in rain and mud. I know which option I prefer. So for those of you who didn't go this year and are trying to find reasons why it isn't a good innovation, I would suggest that you go next year and then criticise from first hand experience.

Some people have suggested a Magic weekend closer to the heartland of RL but I don't think that would work because supporters would only stay for their own team's game. The price of the Magic weekend is a bargain, especially with the 50% discount for season tickets holders, to able to see all the games. If you can't afford that price then your not really that bothered about watching RL.

I went, i enjoyed it but i went to Wire v Featherstone last year and that had more atmosphere than MM. It was alright nowt special.

Enjoyed it personally..

Started in Weatherspoon
Watched our dissapointing performance
Went back to the pub
Entered stadium again and moved with the castleford fans to cheer them on
Appeared on big screen singing for dean Widders
Moved with the Wigan fans to laugh at them losing a 16-0 lead
Went back to hotel get changed
Then went around Cardiff which was poor apart from the strip club.

Heard some great songs in Weatherspoon with my favourite being... ( to tune of music man)

We are the castleford fans
We come from down yorkshire
who shall we play
who shall we play
We'll play the dragons( Then went through a different team each time)

frog frog frog frog frogs and snails
frogs and snails frogs and snail.. etc

I know there is lots of banter between Wian and Wire fans but for me the weekend started really well when I arrived at gate 6 just after the Wire/Hudds kick-off where the stadium was buzzing with Wire fan anticipation. The atmosphere was great. Unfortunately for Wire after the first try the game didn't go as hoped. However, for the neutral the thing I like about the Magic weekend is being able to sample what each of the teams supporters go through. I like to join supporters from one of the playing teams to hear the banter and sense the emotions they go through in a game.

During the Wigan game a Leeds fan mingled with us and was enjoying great banter and he gave as much as he got. He was a great sport which ended in him hugging a Wigan fan who had also had a skinful. You can't get that in any other sport.

Been to every Magic weekend (just for Warringtons day) and loved every one of them. Glad it's been moved back to Cardiff though, much better selection of pubs and the atmosphere in and around the city just feels better. I really can't find anything to not enjoy about 7 games of Rugby League one after another and spending the rest of the day in various pubs, talking to fans from various other clubs. The only people who seem to not enjoy the concept are the people who sit at home and moan about the empty stadium, Eddie and Stevo, Phil Clarke and the RFL.

Did you go? No. Were you and your friends upset because your team had a shocker? Yes. Therefore I hope you don't mind if I take your statement that everyone hated it with a pinch of salt. Not least because I was there, and they didn't. I'm also stuggling to work out why anyone from Hull would travel down on a day ticket for the day that their team was not playing, but I'll leave that one for now.

You mustn't come here often. He's a wire fan and lives in Hull.

I started this thread and now really wish i had not. An aufull comment from a mod posted and now when i look back on posts the mods comments have been changed and my reply that was very polite and in now way caused the mod any offence has also been changed. How do you get mods demoted or are they allowed to lock and change things to suit themselves ?

I know, that was pretty obvious. I think you have misinterpreted my post.

Sorry if I offended you 'wire women'. I'm not a moderator on the Warrington forum so I wasn't the one who edited your post, or my own. If I've stopped you from starting rubbish negative threads in the future, then I've done my job

Just a little up start. Get on your own forum and look up negative in the dictionary then look up future and i think you we will see whats in store for you.

I edited the posts, i removed the insult from headhunter as it was far from needed, adn i removed your retort insulting him back, asking you to ignore it, hoping to get the thread back on track with your original point.
