Nice way to ease through a hangover. Few beers and a bronco game.

Its a case of the old famous 08.10 out of Euston, or then 08.20, both packed to the rafters normally, especially footie days, but we should be OK for us, footie finished etc, done this train many a time over the last ten years

Back up, Night Train out of euston 22.30 Saturday night, get off at Warrington, Wigan at 04.30 hours only £75 return, brings me back, stella at warrington, awaiting first manchester train

Copied this from a link on the total rl forum etc, what do you think, it reads:


Whatever happens with the Magic Weekend this year - and personally I think it might just be successful - I think next year's Magic weekend need to be rejigged and used as a means of promoting the World Cup.

Rather than using a single venue on a single weekend, why not despatch clubs to the areas where they're twinned with and use it as an opportunity to promote the game of rugby league at host venues.

For example, Leeds (who have a partnership arrangement with South West RL) could play their traditional magic fixture against the Bulls at Ashton Gate in order to promote the world cup game there later in the year.

Similarly, Wigan (with there partnership with Wales RL) could take their 'Magic' fixture to the Principality, whilst Saints could use their Irish links to promote the game at Thomond Park (maybe against Warrington), whilst Les Cats could go on the road to Avignon.

Some of these events could still be staged as 'double headers' but the Magic concept could be spread over a series of weekends to make it possible for Sky to televise all these games and allow those who wish to to support all of these events.

Anyway, in true back of a fag packet style, here's my blueprint for Magic 2013.

Weekend One:
Wigan v Huddersfield (Neath)
Salford v Widnes (Wrexham)

Weekend Two:
Cas v Wakey (Keepmoat Stadium*)
Leeds v Bradford (Bristol)
Catalans v London (Avignon)

Weekend Three:
Saints v Wire
Hull FC v Hull KR
(both at Thomond Park)

* non RWC venue


Well, totally agree, a bit of change, means fresh beer
