Good, can't see many arguing with that one.

Jackpot!

Better venue but they'll just bump the hotel prices to ridiculous levels again. Some flop house in Jesmond that is usually £50 a night will be £150! I'm staying in Durham.

There's a great metro service into Newcastle just look a bit further away if anybody wants to save on cash

How are the fixtures for this decided...does it go last seasons league positions.. Or will wire just play Wigan again

Nice little Air BnB booked Fri-Mon (£240) in Gateshead, a 2 minute walk away from Metro. Will either be split 2 or 3 ways so better paying £40 p/p a night than the extortionate city centre prices! Much prefer the flexibility of having my own place for the weekend as well. Gonna check out a few local boozers as well while I'm there and mix with the locals rather than just pile into the usual haunts in the city centre.

Liverpool just didn't do it for me I'm afraid and more than happy to be back in the Toon!

This season's fixtures were based on 2018 finishng positions - 1v3, 2v4, 5v7, 6v8, 9v11 and 10v12.

If the same format is used then the 2020 Magic fixtures will be

St Helens v Salford
Wigan v Warrington
Castleford v Catalans
Hull FC v Leeds
Wakefield v Hull KR
Huddersfield v Toronto

Booked hotel.

What the full hotel or a room?

Most decent hotels charging £150-£200 a night so I hope not!



Can't believe anyone would pay that, they're London prices. Would rather spend half hour on the Metro and travel in from Sunderland/Whitley Bay.

We always stayed at the Premier at Newcastle airport, 150 m from Metro with short run in. Staying again cost of £96 for two nights pp

should do what we did when it was in Edinburgh we hired a stretch hummer for the day and was driven in style at only £80 a piece filled with beer, complimentary champs it was quite a laugh

And quite smelly at times

Was you on a hen do?

City centre Premier Inn, 1 room, 3 nights £287.

As soon as they rumoured it a while back I booked hotels with cancellation option, got three nights incl Breakfasts for £225 for two of us. They are now nearly double that.

Well anticipated! I managed two refundable double rooms with breakfast for 2 nights in Durham for £270.

London prices? I wouldn't want to stay in a Hotel in London for less than £250!! You would end up somewhere like the Britannia Canary Wharf

If Saints are there I'm there no matter where it is but what makes laugh about magic weekend is so many are far more interested in what pubs are in the area so they can throw ale down their necks or what food outlets are around so they can fill their fat faces ahead of the stadium or the actual rugby itself.
