    For me seeing my beloved Reds beat Liverpool & Chelsea but going to Wembley as a SEMI FINALIST supporter, never ever thought it would happen in my life time except the Play Offs, also seeing us stay up it was a long hard slog but we did the unthinkable. Personally wise meeting the best person to ever make a change to my life and accept me as a human without the 1000 questions love her to bits and aint gonna let her go.

    My highlights include Liverpool and Chelsea games and going to Wembley. Away from Football highlights include going to Headingley to watch us play South Africa, going to Durham to watch Yorkshire in the match that never got played and meeting some of the people off here for the first time.

    Yeah first days play mate on Western Terrace. Shouldn't have batted first in those overcast conditions, but saw the one and only Darren Pattinson test. 27 quid, but it's 50 next year. Still think it's worth it for the Ashes. Remember Amla loving the attention? He's got his head on upside down chant lol.

    I think we went 3rd day, not sure though. Should have played Hoggard instead of Pattinson IMO but Moores is **** lol. I'm going to see England vs West Indies at Durham but can't seem to get tickets for the Ashes.
    You know a way to get some?

    I got them because my cousin got a Yorkshire Cricket Club membership so he could guarantee four tickets for each of the five days if he wanted them. There was all different price levels and I think he paid 100 quid which includes a ticket to any Yorkshire game of his choosing. Moores is indeed ****. Duncan Fletcher was the man.

    Ok. From what I have found most of them have gone to corporate(sp) groups. Moores has ruined our team, Fletchers time was up though, needed someone fresh.

    Was being able to think, just for a while, that maybe, just maybe, we were going to in the F.A. Cup. That was priceless.
