Yes you are right all the fans who go every week like myself have got one, and in this division with 36000 tickets available then all fans of all clubs would get a ticket, I suppose teams who go to the FA cup and European finals, get very poor ticket allocation, only 16000 for Liberpool and Spurs is just wrong.

I've been to about 13 home games this season and wouldn't have had a chance of even applying for a Wembley ticket if Leeds made it, mainly down to a shit system and an awful lot of bandwagoners since around Xmas

I think Sunderland are struggling to sell their Wembley allocation surprisingly. Funny lot though mind.

I am indeed.
Very nice, Perth's the last city I need to visit to tick off the 5 test match grounds. Just a shame it won't be the original WACA when i get round to it. Have a mate who lives there loves it. Have a good time.

Could be wrong but I’ve read sales are slow. Long trek tbf.

Nah, I’ve seen the same thing.

Yeah, expensive day out for them and already been there once this season. Think they got allocated an extra 1,000 more than us too. Read that we only have a couple of hundred left but don’t know how true that is. Definitely over 30,000 at midday yesterday.

Number one rule DC is always bang your shoes before putting them on. And don’t get scaring those sharks or crocs either.

Im doing the t20 world cup next year, we play at all 5 of the main venues and it coincides with the Melbourne cup too which is a bonus.

Should be good, never made it to an ashes would like to go next time. Though the last couple of series we've officially lost the series at Perth, it'd have been quality to be their in 2010-11.

I went to the adelaide test in 2010 , was my first cricket tour, safe to say it's got much worse since.

Love Adelaide, smaller than Sydney and Melbourne but some great bars and restaurants and casino just over the river from the ground, I've been to worse sporting venues in the world.

I'd like to try and do a proper tour down under, made the MCG Boxing Day test match last year where we thought we had Warner on 99.... depressing but a top day all round. Would love to get up the east coast. Wasn't too fussed with Sydney mind.

Any excuse to go back really, will be a good football tour for Leeds.

T20 world cup is the perfect one for getting around all Australia and taking some cricket in and horse racing. Be a class but very expensive 3 weeks.

I've driven from Melbourne around and up the east coast, only got as far as Sydney. Some beautiful little towns and beaches, but a lot of trees along the way so the scenery's a bit hit and miss. Personally I prefer the major City centers to the country side in Australia as there is so much wilderness and most towns have nothing there, suppose it depends what you're after but the outback in 40 degree heat isn't a fun place to be.

Did you do Byron bay? Right little party place (was 20 years ago anyway).

No I only drove as far as Sydney then back down to Melbourne, I did fly to Brisbane but just for a few nights as if I'd driven that far up i'd have probably done another few thousand miles and I just couldn't hack it anymore. Amazing time but it was the only holiday except for boozer holidays with mates where I've come back in a worse state than i went.

Is that next year is it?

Did the whole tour in 2010/11, Australia is a fantastic country. My favourite was city was Brisbane, very laid back and only an hour or two max away from some fantastic coastline. The Gabba is a fantastic ground and some great bars nearby as well. The old Waca was tremendous, the new ground looks a bit shit in comparison. Melbourne and Sydney were too touristy and busy for my liking. Adelaide was okay, wouldn't mind seeing what the 'new' ground has to offer but the city itself was like staying in provincial British town for a week :lol:

Did you get a bit more than them originally?
No

From what I’ve heard it’s because they still have loads of Club Wembley tickets their side of the ground, so they are allocating them to derby fans.

East side club Wembley nowhere near sold out. As it’s Derby’s side they are allowed them. Our club Wembley went to a ballot and sold out straight away.

Yes, around November time. Cant say I was that keen on adelaide either, went to Melbourne for a few days and enjoyed that , looking forward to seeing a lot more next year.
