I couldn't find a thread for this.
I'm planning a road trip to Yorkshire for the last week in August with my 13yr old son.
Want to take him to Headingly for the Ashes as we'll be based in Leeds - It's all sold out -
Anyone have a clue as to how much it might cost from the touts outside to get in?
As an aside that CWC final was nail biting to the end
I bought tickets for the 2005 (Trent Bridge) and 2009 (Headingley) Ashes test matches from touts outside about 30 mins before the start of play with no issue. From memory, the tickets for Trent Bridge were £80 for the pair for the popular side (a fair bit more than face value) and a bit less for Leeds on the Western Terrace (closer to face value), even though it was more recent it wasn;t as much of a 'must see' match as the one in 2005.I'm planning a road trip to Yorkshire for the last week in August with my 13yr old son.

Only done it twice, neither time was an issue - always seen loads of tickets avaialble for cricket whenever I have been but there's obviously a risk - depends how much you want to see the cricket I suppose.
Slightly off topic, didn't realise until now just how much delay there is on TMS transmission over internet versus broadcast. Not quite sure if it's always as much as this, but just nipped into Tesco on way home. Whilst parking and listening on DAB, Aggers was wittering in about selling a flat in his bachelor days. Started listening on phone, quickly went into store, picked up some mayonnaise, a requested magazine for 'er indoors, to coin a phrase, and as walking to till Aggers started wittering about his flat sale. Always thought delays were limited to just a few seconds.
Apparently not.
