no thanks

my experiance of corporate at Headingley for a test match has usually contained boring old farts discussing their new cars and paying very little attention to the game in hand

would rather be on the western, much more knowledgeable crowd there

I'll be there, day 4.

Australia now 3 down come on England

Need Hussey back in the pavillion.

DONE

GONE!

Start the car!

A Quick question that somebody may be able to answer:

With rain forecasted for Friday and Saturday is it a near on certainty on play been held on the 5th and final day (Tuesday)? (Providing Tues weather is ok)

(my knowledge on Cricket isnt the best)

Unless it rains on Tuesday, yes.

I'm pretty sure that there will be play on the last day!

Looking to get tickets now?

Got them this morning!



Hooooked on the Ashes so thought why not attend my first match?

Then somebody laughed and said i should pray the 5th day will be needed.

The financial issue is that if there's no or little play on the 1st 4 days, refunds are available.
If there's no play on the 5th day for whatever reason you've lost your money.
Discounting the weather, on the playing side neither side lokks capable of consistently taking the 20 wickets needed to win a test, so on that score play on the 5th day looks very probable.
Nevertheless I'm going to get a ticket for the 5th day shortly.
I'd hate ( having gone to the 1st 4 days) to miss a possible England victory on the 5th.
An Aussie victory at any stage though would be hard to take!

Very true, that was made clear at the time however with a victory taking us 2-0 up in the series with one to play it fell on deaf ears

Good for you.
It would be gtreat to win back the Ashes at Headingley, can't recall if that's ever happened before.
& I truly was one of the alleged 85000 who were there on the last day in 81.
What a day that was.

How much is a 5th day ticket? knowing my luck we wont have any play that day!

Seeing how nice the weather has been up here recently a few rain delays are not out of the question, so its entirley possibly there will be plenty of action on the 5th day.

I got tickets for the 5th day, for a fiver its worth the risk.

Anyone just watch the pro 40 game then? What a game, cracking finish aswell. Hopefully i will be heading to a pro 40 game this summer!

Yeah caught the end of it, we still lost... AGAIN!

I bought tickets for day 5 but not in the Western Terrace

anyway i really hope it will go to day 5. I think Yorkshires fielding cost them the game last night. When Lyth dropped that catch it all looked nervous for Yorkshire. And Gale gets better every week with his one day batting!

Lyth can't catch. The catches he's dropped. Makes me feel sick.

Ready for some fun at HQ then...?

Well with the green team doing everything they can to stop the fun, it should be pretty quiet.


















































NOT!!

No... f[ie[/icking £75 day 4 tickets

Nasser Hussain has slammed the Western Terrace

Thoughts?

Sit somewhere else if you don't like it. 95% of people on the Western Terrace seem to enjoy the atmosphere. I think people need to stop being such whiny bee-atches. Apparently 81 people were ejected last year against South Africa. I wondcer how many were ejected for offences more serious than building towers of plastic pint pots or possession of a beach ball?

They should just designate the WT as the party stand and have done with it. I've had some great days on there. I'm not sure you can complain (as YCCC are doing) about how drunk people get, while remaining more than happy to reap the enormous cash takings resulting from selling alcohol to them all day......
