I assume you've been and asked Khaldoon Al Mubarak and Malcolm Glazer?
Ferguson whinges every year about one game being played there and COM has held one game in six years and that was just after it was converted, if they wanted more games there have been plenty of them to play there.

A Manchester Magic Weekend would be awesome - handy for most RL fans to get to, great transport links, walking distance to the city, a great stadium, awesome.
But a Manchester Magic would mean fans go for one or two games and them go home again, the whole value as an event is the income it brings to the host city in extra tourist money, isn't part of the whole thing to make it a big event for fans and sponsors, gain some exposure and have a good time doing it?
Manchester, Leeds and other major North of England cities have plenty of opportunity to put RL to the fore, unless you drive past Headingley you'd not know Leeds were current champions.
