Yes, another Durham Test match thread. As we're getting closer im beginning to look to my budget :shock:.

How much will things cost? As a ballpark figure?

For example:

Tea/coffee
Lager/beer
Commentary headsets
Burgers/Chips
Other bait - such as a meal (if they have a curry van for instance)
Programme
 

About 4 quid a pint.
5 quid for the radio headset.
4 quid for a programme

Dinnit care about the others. I can't wait.

I assume we can take food and (non alcoholic) drinks in?

FAQs
Can we bring food and drink into the ground?
Food and non-alcoholic drinks only can be brought into the ground.
No glass packaging or cans please. We do operate a search policy and if these items are found you unfortunately we will have to confiscate them. You may however return these items to your car

Im not doing very well here am I. :lol:

I thought the BBC and sky coverage were on the same head set, just different frequencies?

The last one I bought was anyway.

Not really :lol:

I didn't look at them too closely so I don't know about the multi-frequencies, definitely £10 though
 
Programmes are usual £5 but don't know if they've upped the price this year for the Ashes.

Regarding a radio headset, here's how to get a free one - join Twelfth Man on ECB website. You get an email before each test with a voucher for a free one. Last year they were also doing free progrmmes as well but seem to have stopped this.

Cheers, I've just signed up.

Might have a job getting a free headset though. It says only 100 available. Worth a try though.
 
A couple of daft questions:

1. I've got one of these headset thingies lying in a drawer from a test a couple of years ago, is it worth taking or do they tweak the frequencies to make them usable only during a single day or test?

2. Is the phone reception good enough in there these days to make streaming audio / video a viable option? SkyGo and a load of unused data allowance would seem to be a better option than audio alone.
