Hi all I did try and search here to not replicate another thread but couldn't find one.
For the Magic Weekend do we know which ends the fans will be in? I can't find anything about it so far but probably missing something.

Saints club tickets allocation is in the Leazes End. You can buy from the Saints ticket site and their allocation, says on the magic weekend ticket site that season ticket holders get a 50% discount if they buy directly through the club as well.
Forwards win games. The backs decide by how much.
Load of nonsense.
I've been before it's OK but not the 'jamboree' sky make it out to be. The beauty of being in that big end of the ground is that you can move around and watch each game from a different view.. Well I did anyway as my backside ended up numb after the first two of four games.
They shouldn't have bothered this year tbh.
Have you been to one AG?
I guess its a sort of 'marmite' event, and I can see why some don't like the extra fixture, travelling etc.
I enjoy them. You can mix with other fans if you want to, but you don't need to. I know plenty who just turn up for the Saints game, then spend the rest of time in town.
IMO the town (wherever it's played) has a kind of 'cup final' atmosphere about it , but with 8 sets of fans in that 'final' instead of two.
Each to their own eh?
I’m a big fan of Magic, though I feel it’s never quite reached its potential and it could be much better than it is.
Newcastle is a great city for it, too.
St Helens Rugby League Football Club
I wouldn't mind the weekend in Newcastle, but the Magic concept doesn't really appeal. I probably watch two games each day on TV.
I’m doing both nights again. Done it twice before and loved it. Perfect location in the city. Probably won’t watch all 6 games in the ground but at £20 for the full weekend ticket you can’t argue with the value.
NEVER WRITE OFF THE SAINTS
There's nothing magical about it all in that sense, you're right. I could live without it as a concept but as a weekend it's decent fun especially up in the Toon which is ready made for a weekend like that. I'm biased because I have mates up there and the missus has family in the North East so we make a mini-holiday out of it, but if you strip away the fact that the games are relatively pointless in terms of the season and just take it for what it is, it's a good weekend.
