Sydney Away 7 Nov

Sydney Away 7 Nov

Not sure if I am being a little premature but I have some questions for those that have been and/or are going to the Sydney Away Game on Friday 7 November.

 

I have my flights sorted. Would have stayed longer but family commitments means I can't.

 

My Questions:

1. Are you going?

2. Recommendations on Accommodation - of course have goggled and been to Sydney before but wondered where those of you that are going are staying?

3. Match Tickets - can't imagine it�s going to be sold out but should I get tickets online in advance or is on the gate on the night safe?

4. Pre/Post Match drinking holes - Is there a common meet place?

 

Thanks in Advance.

 

 

Tickets available thru Ticketek Australia ( oh noooo..) @ AUD19 for Away supporters (behind the goal I assume).   Just buy from Ticketek when you get there or at gate (or online if you want to risk it).

Cheers Wongky - i have already checked tickettek and was more wondering whether i could just wait until the night.

I'm just going to grab my ticket from a Ticketek agency on the Friday when I arrive. Failing that, at the gate.

Cheers again W

A bunch of mates and I are heading to Melbourne for the Melbournce Cup, then on to Sydney for the Nix vs Bling game, not sure on exact numbers but there will probably be between 10-30 of us. Most of us are staying with some of the lads who live in Sydders, we'll probably buy tickets on Thursday or Friday from one of the ticketecs. As for meeting before the game, someone was organizing a tour so i said we'd go meet up with them, with all this moving around a threads I've no idea where to find it now.
Anyway we'll see you there, you can't miss me, I'm 6 foot 6, shaved head and I'm generally really f**king loud (especially after a few beers). I'll be the one chanting "You all live in a prison colony, a prison colony, a prison colony!"

Does anyone know which drinking establishment the Nix supporters are meeting before the game?

I've stuck this to top of forum so we don't lose it.

Emptied now

The pub we where in last year was the Hopetoun on the cnr of Fitzroy and Bourke St. But they've kicked the Cove of for being too lively and upsetting the grunge/emo types that haunt the place the other 6.5 days of the week the Cove are not there.

I believe the vast majority of the supporters are now drinking in the Captain Cook hotel, can't miss it, on the cnr or Moore Park Road and Flinders St opposite the stadium

Hi all,

"I believe the vast majority of the supporters are now drinking in the Captain Cook hotel, can't miss it, on the cnr or Moore Park Road and Flinders St opposite the stadium"

Anyone reading this travellingt to/from Lower Hutt that wants to a) share a cab or b) Share cost of airport parking (your car) and is on a early morning (6amish) flight from Wellington on Friday 7th and back into Wellington arriving about midnight on the Saturday the 8th that is travelling to/from Lower Hutt?

A bunch of us are heading over earlier and going to the Melbourne cup on the Tuesday, we may even have a couple of beers while we are there!

Anyway someone select a good pub (maybe not the Sydney supporters pub) and we'll all meet there before the game.

PS. There should be between 20-30 lads and ladies with me so don't make it a sh*thole pub.

I'll do a pub crawl of the area this weekend!

Oh man.... not long to go now!!!! I can't wait

numbers are looking fairly decent it would seem. I think we could be pushing for some brief TV coverage here if we make enough noise...

Coogee Boy - did you survive the pub crawl? Anything to report on a pre/post match meet up for all those coming over?

and we're 3-0 up

Has anyone got any recommendations for places to stay? We've got a group of six, and have been looking at serviced apartments but there don't seem to be many available. We're trying to stick around the darling harbour area, but looking for somewhere that won't break the budget.

Try the meriton apartments we stayed there last feb 5min walk to Darling harbour and 60min walk to stadium

Hi All,

Boys, heading to Sydney for a few weeks for work - to teach someone how to take over my job :-( - but would be keen to head to the game. probably cant make a pub before hand but should be a cracking game

The Fox and Lion (in the Entertainment Quarter) looks good - has a large outdoor area.  Link to "How to get to Entertainment Qtr" and map of EQ below. Fox and Lion approx B6 on map. What do you reckon nzcopley?

Looks good, anyone been there before....

Fitz, Barts and I need somewhere to meet up so it may as well be where all the other YF are meeting.

Ok cool, Coxey you have my mobile number.

I'll bring our crew to the Fox & Lion. If anyone needs to get hold of me, post of this forum or pm me.

make that + 2.
