One of my mates said as he walked round a corner he was set upon by 20 smurfs........
Could nt stop laughing for hours all in good fun though..

Does anyone have a spare half price voucher they are not using because Mrs FB said she will come.

All the others as I've stayed over, I've watched all the games. This one though I'll only watch our match and then head home with it being so close and watch the rest in the comfort of my own local.

Making a day and night of it.

Going for the day great to see 3 or 4 games of rugby back to back. Don't think it will be as good as Cardiff as i presume there is not as much to do around the ground.

Watching all three then Rusholme for a curry.

Yes. Quite a few.

If you want to be with a load of fans in one place with loads of space to bounce around and sing like loons there's Mary D's on Grey Mare Lane.

Landlord doesn't seem to mind a bit of rowdiness but it often spills over into pints being thrown over everyone; each to their own n all that.
The beer served in there is though. I tend to stay away from here because of the quality of beer.

There's another two pubs on that road; The Manchester and Eastlands Bar.

I drink in The Townley on Albert Street just around the corner from this lot. It's the best pub around the ground. Nice family run the pub, decent bar staff, big space at the front to stand outside and drink.


There is also City Square right outside the stadium. They usually have a load of entertainment on there and there's space for loads of people.






There's food stalls and bars there and they always has live bands on pre-game.


And there is also the city centre just 5minutes (£4) cab ride or 15minutes walk away. There's absolutely loads of decent pubs as well as the bars.

wow cheers for that!

Going in for our game and the Hull derby.lots of beer before and after

The first Magic Weekend I'll be missing.

Can't be helped though - my last exam of my Degree is on the Friday afternoon, and I can't get back to Warrington until Saturday night due to prior commitments.

A fantastic idea from the RFL to establish such an event, and I hope this year's showpiece will eradicate memories of the Murrayfield era and last year's poorly timed event.

I'm doing Charity work that weekend, already committed before the fixtures came out. Won't see any of Saturdays games at all

Were at Chester Races that day, gutted as I've not been a Magic Weekend and was planning to go on the Saturday, oh well.

I hope it doesn't eradicate the memories of Murrayfield, they were some of my favourite RL memories of recent years.

It's a superb venue for a festival of RL. If a little cold.

Looks like we might have a decent turn out, as I went for my ticket this morning and we had sold our initial allocation of unreserved. i went back this afternoon when they had got more in.
Don't forget your voucher must be exchanged at least 7 days in advance.

Deals still available via rugbyleaguetickets.co.uk - but they do appear to be going better than previously.
