| Good idea, a proper season launch that might actually attract some media attention instaed of the damp squib staggered start we've endured for the last few years.
I'm up for this depending on interest from the other members of The pmh Posse.

| Big mistake in my opinion, not the move, fully in favour of going back to Cardiff, but the timing is very poor in my opinion. No campsites open (how many of us stayed at Trecco Bay last time?), Valentine's Weekend, places guaranteed to up prices (take my word for it it's my wedding anniversary and it happens every year) and a normal weekend when everyone has to be back at work/school on the Monday. Imagine having that last game on the Sunday and then having to drive home and get up for work the next day. Had it been a week later it would have been half term and I'm sure more people with kids would have gone if they didn't have to have the kids back at school on Monday. All this is without taking the weather into consideration, we had heavy snow around that time this year, could affect travel arrangements for everyone.

Well there's zero chance of me staying in a tent, camping it up? Much more likely.
They'll hike the prices anyway, and as for Monday work, forget it!
It won't snow, I can feel it, it'll be lovely, al fresco boozing in between games, get in!
I do realise that I'm in a fortunate postition to be able to afford to go and have the flexibility take more or less when I like off.
Maybe the week after would have been better but then The RFL would be facing fixture pile ups at the other end of the season in the run up to the Four Nations or whatever we're having that year.
I'm already 99% certain that I'm going.

| I'm with trace too, add to this it's just after Xmas so cash will be tight and the best thing about Cardiff was the cafe bar atmosphere that in feb will be lacking.

| Better be quick, I have booked a hotel for me and the missus and all the available beds in Cardiff centre are full for both nights already, nearest we found was about 4 mile away.

I am in the same position as you in this, in that I can get time etc. Just think that feb is the wrong time for it.

| The problem with hotels on this particular weekend is that they've already been booked up by thousands of Shorpe United fans who are away at Cardiff on the Saturday.
Anyway the Magic weekend is a silly idea and even more ridiculous in February.
