I asked Rovers at the Fans forum about Rovers sections - They were going to look into that.

Anyway.. I've now booked it. Arriving 22nd, leaving on the 3rd.

**** **** **** wish I was going :angry:

Can't be bothered to go to home games these days, but games abroad are a whole different ball game - GUTTED.

Are we all looking at going with the Blackburn Rovers supporter area?

Yes, seems to make sense. I would suggest getting seats in the last rows of the bay so we don't ###### people off when we stand to watch the game.
Do we have a list of who is attending from the forum?
No, but maybe we should print nametags ;)

That's not too far away. Could almost walk it, but there's a bus you could catch, 5 mins the most.

Buses 373, 374 and 377 all go past the SFS from Elizabeth street next to Hyde Park, about a 10 minute journey, plus you will be a 10 minute walk from Kings Cross were just about anything goes.

Anybody got tickets for these games yet ?

The prices are a bit steep in the Rovers supporters area.

I'm wondering if getting a Cat B tournament pass for $150 is better than getting 3 x $65 ($195) Rovers area tickets. The Cat B areas are right next to the Rovers supporters areas.

I also wonder if a Cat A tournament pass ($200) will let me into the Rovers area. I would like to watch at least 1 game from the side and the rest with Rovers fans. Decisions, decisions...

I bought tickets for the 25th and 28th yesterday. I was tempted to buy Cat A tickets since they're only a bit more, but I figured it would be more fun sitting with other Rovers fans than having a better view.

Yeah certainly ain't cheap for pre season games, but that's Sydney for you, not a cheap place to live or visit. $65 converts to around £38, $195 for all three games converts to around £114, but remember that's actually for 6 games.

Pensioners and unemployed maybe?

I think Singapore Airlines are offering some decent fairs from London. They also do the Airbus on the Singapore to Australia leg of the journey, which is a fair bit more comfortable than the usual 747/777 - I find it really makes a difference on a 20+ hour flight.

Anyone with a Pensions/Seniors/unemployed/disability card; Usually students get a look in as well. It means they'll get a discount.

Being an old fart, I'm the fortunate recipient of a seniors card. That means, for example, I can travel anywhere in NSW on public transport for $2.50
