| It's going to be goodbye to Cardiff for a couple of years & hello to Edinburgh from next May......
Quote: "Rugby league's Magic Weekend will move from Cardiff to Edinburgh's Murrayfield Stadium next year.
The event, which sees a full round of Super League fixtures played in one city over a single weekend, will take place on 2 and 3 May 2009. Edinburgh takes over on a two-year deal from Cardiff, which hosted the first two weekends in 2007 and 2008. '"
Right then, who's going?!  Thoughts? Never been to Scotland, so this should be a good weekend.  |

Us real fans don't look over our shoulder at our neighbours and do whatever we can to get one over on them. We look at the bigger picture. And this is the reason why Rovers are and will forever be considered a small club. Because their fans and board would rather get one over on Hull FC above anything else.

Nothing official has been said however you'd assume they'd have said when they announced the change of venue... Then again it is the RFL |

I really cannot envisage Derbies next magic weekend, simply because the format has been too predictable.
And most fans need a challenge.

I submit to you that if a man hasn't discovered something that he will die for, he isn't fit to live.

Everything i've heard & read so far has advertised it as the 'Magic Weekend', so i'm guessing they're just going to be dropping the Magic...of course, due to the change in venue.
As for the fixtures, said on BBC news this morning the usuals will be kept....but guess we'll have to wait until the '09 season fixtures are released for confirmation on that one.
Anyone ever been up to Murrayfield?
