Still baffles me why they persist on holding the final at Elland Road, its not exactly the most modern of stadia is it (has it still got wooden seats in some sections?) Eastlands would of been perfect.

Because Man City don't want other sports played during the premiership season.

No, it's not. They probably hold it there because a) It's available and b) It's in the heartlands - I'm seriously considering the game with it only been an hour away from Hull, if it was in Manchester (around 2 hours 20) I wouldn't go.

Is magic weekend not moving to May next year? Or did I dream it? When does the premiership season end?

Whilst im not doubting you or others who have said the same I would still like to see where that is said in the planning consent. The only time I have heard of a limit on events is from RL fans yet nobody can point us in the direction to when that has ever been said by Manchester City Council.

Think I remember a bit of a kick off in the MEN about it mate when they said about this.

Just wouldnt mind seeing in black and white, because the way some people talk on here they know all the ins and outs of the whole set up with Man City and Eastlands, yet have no evidence. All I know is that Manchester City Council own it, though I have no idea who's right it is to allow certain events over the year and how the finances work with regards to the council and Man City. Do we really know it wasnt an option?
