Just got back after 2 nights staying in the centre and you wouldn't know there was a tournament as there was zero advertising. Did the Scots do any better than the Welshies as I thought that was one of the reasons it left Cardiff. I don't think so.

I doubt we will go back next year, the atmosphere in Cardiff was alot better due to the stadiums location and the roof keeping in the noise.

Did anyone else have the gravy in the stadium? i have never tasted anything so vile in my life.

it looked really poor on the TV, empty stadiums are not a good advert for rugby league. I know lots of people who stayed at home due to the magic weekend moving to Scotland.

Cardiff was gaining a great reputation and the derby games worked better. I would like to know how many tickets were sold to the non rugby league scottish people, i estimate 5% which to me seems to be another pointless expansion of the game. Wales this year would have been great with the inception of Celtic Crusaders and i am sure a Cardiff event would have attracted over 80,000 fans

That was disappointing, seemed very few (if any)of the locals new about the Magic Weekend. Got a taxi Saturday night and the driver knew nothing about it and you would expect a local cabbie to know what was happening. Overheard one local tell another that he thought it was the Cup Final icon_rolleyes.gif

Wakefield till I die, I'm Wakefield I eat pie.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_34816.png



I have to say I was very disappointed with the whole event in Edinburgh.....however I don't know whether that was because of our result and hotel.

We were 20 miles out of Edinburgh staying in Falkirk, the two pubs nearby closed at 10.30pm and 11pm.

I can't quite believe how quiet all the Wakey fans were......come on guys, where were all the voices???? Normally at away games we raise the roof and have a laugh - totally gutted.

Was it the fact we played poorly or the fact that cheap crap lager was £3.50 a go?

Far too expensive, nothing near the stadium etc etc and the attendances prove that.

I'd love it to be in Cardiff again next year but that is never gonna happen.....may save my money and make a bit of a holiday in Catalans instead.

Shame really.

Anybody have a really good experience?

Cardiff is something I can't really comment on having not actually been there, but full congratulations to everyone at Murrayfield for ensuring that all supporters had a hassle free weekend and the general generousity and hospitalilty from our Scottish hosts.

The only complaint was the final match, Warrington v Hull kr. Not really final fixture material, should have been either the Hull derby or even leeds v cas as both matches would have had a cracking atmosphere, just like the wigan v Saints match was like on Saturday night.

Still, great weekend nonetheless, so in finishing, thank you to all the staff at Murrayfield, the people of Edinburgh and all staff at the hotels for having our company. Hopefully people of Scotland, you will have been inspired by what you have seen this weekend for you to get a good standard team set up and lets do this again next year.

I had a cracking weekend and to be honest i thought there was a great atmosphere for the Wakefield game. I was at the back so that might cloud my judgement. Generally i thought the weekend suffered from not having the derbies.

The attendance was always going to be lower as the games really didn't excite and entice fans to make the effort to go when we're in a recession. I spoke to alot of locals who were very knowledgable about Rugby League and generally seemed to know at least there was an event going on.

They could have done more outside of the ground to make it a carnival event and make it family friendly and i'm sure next year it'll be much improved.

The weekend is what you make it and i loved it like Cardiff

Just got back and have to say I enjoyed it. There are pros and cons to both venues. I must admit we were unsure where to go to try to meet up with other fans and we seemed to be wondering round for quite a time having no idea where we were going.. We stayed 5 minutes from Princess Street in an apartment, nothing posh but it worked out at £20 pp per night so there was nothing to complain about. We had good meals and visited some great bars and went to a hotel called the Three Sisters last night and there were loads of fans in there as well as the Celtic Crusaders team. Found the people a lot friendlier than the Welsh. Also enjoyed the train journey. Would go back to either venue but can't see it being in Wales.
