FAIR GO FOR AUSTRALIAN CRICKET LOVERS
A bit off topic, writes Peter Bray from ClearBlueDay, but maybe you are a cricket lover... www.cricketblog.com is starting a petition about the Ashes tickets - maybe all us CB Bloggers can assist?
As most of you know, Cricket Australia cancelled over 1000 tickets bought through Ebay. This means that they have the chance to at least partially rectify their initial mistake and allow the public to get tickets in a fair process.
Cricketblog.com is supporting an online petition, asking for the following from Cricket Australia:
1. That the remaining tickets be opened up to an online auction, conducted by Cricket Australia, in batches of 2.
2. That no individual can purchase more than two tickets.
3. That 80% of these tickets be allocated to Australian naitonals, proof of which will be by passport number and a faxed passport image.
4. That this process be complete by October 31.

who cares, whinge somewhere else
Jesus, you Aussies will pull anything.
For the first time in history, tickets have been cancelled through e-bay.
Ordinarily a sports body wouldn't care - after all, they've sold the tickets.
But, hmmm. Most of those tickets went to English fans.
And we can't have that great English crowd putting off the boys can we?
Let's flog them to Aussies instead!
God. you guys'll must be shitting your pants to pull a stunt like this.
Go England.
I have tickets to all 5 days of the Ashes test in Melbourne. Not being a huge cricket fan (I'm there only for the beer), I only want to go on day 1, the rest of the days are up for grabs if anyone's interested..
"That 80% of these tickets be allocated to Australian naitonals, proof of which will be by passport number and a faxed passport image."
Pity the dirty plebs who don't have a passport.
Good luck to em.
