According to the Sun is going to be in Manchester next season. Didnt the RFL sign a 2 year deal when it went to Cardiff?

I guess attendance may be better as there is less distance for the majority to travel, but can't see that many people making a big weekend of it and staying over for both days.

I've missed the last couple but will probably end up going for the day whenever we are playing but won't stay over and see both days.

Possibly as the combined attendance for both days was only just over 60,000 last year i was there first day and it seemed ok if not busy but a very empty top tier. Not a very special stadium to have it in though is it.

Been to the last few magic weekends, but not over keen on this idea. If it is in Manchester it will have to be in late may/june time due to the football. Prefer cardiff again, made for a good weekend away last year!

I thoroughly enjoy the magic weekends, but part of the pull factor is that it's a long weekend away. Going to Manchester doesn't exactely excite me, especially after several rounds of SL.

If it were to be staged in Manchester, it'd be best as an opening weekend to entice fans to make the effort.

Agree with all of the above tbh and for it to be on the may/June bank holiday after half the season is abit pointless. It won't be at the start of the season though as the wendyball club will moan about a ruined pitch.

They might as well had it Elland Rd at least there are bars within walking distance to the ground. One day for me and the group too.

i think the fact it was the first weekend helped increase attendences. many may have been going along the withdrawal lines and wanting to go to it to see a live rugby game due to lack of them over winter. if its in june people on holiday may have a negative impact too.

I think this could be a good idea from a financial point of view. Not many fans can afford the Magic Weekend/Wembley/Catalans away in one season. Giving them the chance to make the Magic Weekend more affordable may save the funds to attend the challenge cup final or Catalans and the grand final. This may help attendances for other finals.

One day for me not 2. At least it is in a warmer part of season, can't see many going on both days.
