If that's the case fair enough, I didn't know, mind you neither did a few of those complaining about it!

Oh and now that I've checked, nor does the Government UK site, they think it's 25 May too!

Bank Holiday is on Mon 25/5/15 ?!
Magic Weekend is Sat 30th & Sun 31st May which means there no Monday in May afterwards, hence no Bank holiday!

only eight teams survive every point will be vital and in the extra match someone would rather play leeds than wakey ](*,)

Yes i would pick Leeds. If we would have lost to that lot at wembley they would never shut up about it, they still prattle on about the Million pound game :roll:

How is that small club mentality its a bonus 2pts which every team wants the best possible chance of winning, im sure if you asked anyone at wigan if they'd rather play sts or wakey im sure they'd all say wakey.

And yet everyone of us has predicted us to finish above leeds in the prediction thread yet no one wants them at magic weekend???

The wakey fixture at mw is dull and boring now, weve just has much chance has beating leeds and hudds as we have wakey imo

I kniw id much rather play wakey than leeds at magic weekend, a better chance of winning which in the end is the important thing.we won 3 last year against wakey last year true but the last one was by no means straight forward they could be a bigger challenge than people are anticipating

The home game was our own downfall 22-0 up and deciding to play harlem globetrotter stuff on our own line

I really dont expect amything from either leeds or wakey next year, just my opinion though

No machine I'm with ya ... on paper at least the Cas / Wakey fixture is now possibly the biggest mismatch at MW & hence unfair to everyone (except us!) ... the fixtures have some local derbies but that isn't & can't be case for everyone (as Catalan have to play someone) ... so for me the fairer way would be to have 1st -v- 2nd; 3rd -v- 4th, etc., from previous season. We'd have Hudds on that basis, with Wakey -v- Hull.

Funny, butlLocal derbies have a habit of turning form (and class) on their head. They owe us one at the moment

Im just bored of spending hundreds for magic weekend to watch us play same team every year, justbthink refreshing the fixtures would of brought abit of extra enthusiasm from the fans
