Definitely going. Prefer Cardif to Edinburgh but would have liked to give somewhere like Dublin a try.

Prefer Cardiff to Edinburgh, so pleased about that. A bit concerned about sitting through 4 games in February, it was bad enough in May. Will the closed roof mean that it be warm enough inside the ground to just wear your club shirt and remove your coat?

I'm undecided, it's obviously a great way to start the season and may well provide the media attention the sport deserves. Whilst the quality of games may not be as good, the scoreline's should be alot closer.

I can't see the attendance increasing, mainly because there is no bank holiday and also because it's in February. Will the attendance over the two days be higher than clubs would have had on the opening weekend? Probably not.

Time will tell

Bloody rip off merchants in Cardiff.

Went down for the 2005 CC. Pretty much every cafe or food shop was a joke. All their price boards were covered over and they just had one big sign 'All sandwiches £3.00' or 'All pies £3.50' etc. I bet if you'd have gone in the same shops on a Monday morning they'd have been half the price.

Prefer Cardiff to Edinburgh. Won't be doing too close to Christmas and not the kind of weather to wander round Cardiff. Its a definite no.

Good stuff, me and the Missis can not wait

Prefer Cardiff, would like to go but not sure about February and would prefer a bank holiday weekend

Booked a hotel for Saturday night. Just need someone to go with now.

I've saved a pound for every time over the last thirty odd years I've come home from a Wakefield game and said "Right, That's it. I'm not going anymore". I now have enough to cover my hotel and transport costs and make a substantial contribution to the building of the new stadium.

Did not go to Cardiff in the past and it sounded quiet good. I went to Edinburgh once and will not return so a probable is better than a no chance.

Has it gone back derby games again?

Glad it's at Cardiff as this was vastly superior to Edinburgh IMO.

Also think the kick off game will attract larger crowds as the rugby fans will be starving for some rugby.

Only negative will be the weather at that time of year I assume. Whilst the roof on the stadium will protect this I'm not sure the same carnival atmosphere outside the stadium cold be reproduced if it was very cold/raining.

And so they should be if there two days old

Really pleased its back down at Cardiff as heard it was great in 2008

Went to Edinburgh with the lads in 09 and had a great weekend so will no doubt we will be going to Cardiff this time to watch the rugby and all our quality new signings making their debuts...

Just looked at some hotel / guest house prices and dont think some have cottened on yet and increased prices so may even book it this weekend.
