🟢 Time for the MCC to save red-ball cricket? 🔵 Financial health of all counties examined 🔴 Support for 'Syd' Lawrence 🟣 Middx charged 🟤 Racism row at Cricket Scotland 🟠 Worcs' X putdown
Well done to Worcs CCC and Adrian Stirrup. Good to see that one person can make a difference and that his club were responsive.
On ticket inflation - I went to the FA Cup Final in 1975, and my ticket cost £5 to stand on the terraces. Prices for supporters of the two finalists this year ranged from £35 to £250, though obviously tickets in some other parts of the stadium, particularly hospitality packages, would have been far greater. Still, it compares fairly favourably with the esscalation in the Cricket World Cup prices.
