Australia v West Indies Test Match Dec 4-8

Postby Pottsy » Wed Oct 21, 2009 1:09 pm

With this eagerly anticipated and no doubt closely contested test match coming up between two powerhouses of world cricket, interest has surged to an all time high blah blah blah...

OK, so that might not be the case. But if you're thinking of heading in, especially on the weekend, and don't have Members tickets, I thought it might be a good idea to remind people to book ahead just in case. the general admission area this year is significantly smaller than usual, so even a match against a possible rabble of a West Indian outfit has the possibility of selling out.

Let's not forget people that WI have now sorted out their issues and will be interested to see how they go.

WI - Please select Pollard for your test side as well.

what area is going to be classed as members this year, apart from the Bradman Stand? They had better not be thinking of taking over the hill.
So you've seen everything have you?
Yep
Have you ever seen a man eat his own head?
No
Well you haven't seen everything then have you.

Cheers for the heads up Pottsy, myself and a few mates planned on going on the Saturday and just rocking up at the gates and buying a ticket (we did this last year no probs at the Test match v NZ), but I didn't even consider the lack of seating due to demolished members stands!

LMAO. Five people and a dog will turn up to watch this match. Only the dog will still be there at stumps because the Hot Dogs will have to be thrown away.

38 XXXX @ about $4.80 is a hard day on the wallet - get wasted beforehand, then rock up! Then buy cups of goon - only $3.50.....

followed by a couple of doobies around 4.30 and then sit back and watch the action on the hill. Always my fave part of the day.
