| Quote ="philipk"come on its a hardly a lottery win is it , probably about a month or 2 running costs at Red Hall covered - probably got more from this years WCC for a lot less time and effort'"
if it covers 2 months of costs at Red Hall, that sounds fairly significant.
Anyway, it is £400k from another budget that can be spent on development in Cumbria.

I get the feeling that phillipk might be there regardless of his thoughts on the event itself

| If only Graham and Cunningham had concentrated on preparing for the game rather than slagging off the concept ...

| with official attendance less than 30k in rugby unions scottish home, i think we need a serious debate about the pr value of the magic weekend.
1 its bloody embarrasing
2. it shows our sport in a bad light
3. the games are played in a weird atmos
4. kick and clap mob wet themselves
5 real fans miss out to local cheapies / freebies due to expense of travel etc
6 fixtures are random surely whole sport need one home and one away game against each team?
7. im sorry expansionists but it didnt work in wales so why will it work in scotland?
8. and most importantly... i hate it!

| I agree, I bet they'll take some right stick from the fans this weekend.
Deservedly so, anything they put out should be put through the club

| I like the idea of MM, i haven't gone this year, but have been to Cardiff both times, it allows fans to have a fun day out and watch teams play eachother that we would never normally be able to watch live, without playing against your own team. 30k, oh well.

| total garbage
1 how much did murrayfield cost?
2 how much was actually paid to attend today, i mean paid with money, not freebies.
3 did this make it a profit or loss for the clubs?
4. ooh 1/3 full rugby union stadium, oh boy that makes us look good doesnt it? especially when we had 6 teams loyal fans in there!
5. it does not actually expand anything, no scottish team could get 8k minimum sl franchise amount, as no welsh team has. cumbria maybe, scotland no!
merely dealing in economics and cash, it does not work ful stop.

| ok my personal fav is newcastle, and is play a weekend of challenge cup games there, say the last 16 over 2 days.
reasons
1.near enough to cumbrian heartland,a nd would include all rl not just sl
2.real expansion possibilities
3. would be real top day out for all rl fans!
thoughts?
