what's happened to the nospam49??

he keeps saying that leichart oval should be bulldozed out of existence and not to waste any money on the joint, but it's one of the biggest drawing grounds in sydney.........the people have spoken.......upgrade and rebuild leichart oval!!!

I wonder if the people who couldn't get in would have prefered the game was down the road at the much larger and more modern Telstra Stadium.

Doubt it...though some may have, more likely they were kickin emselves for leaving it till late.
I'm sure they'll all arrive much earlier next time.

I know not everyone reads forums, but for the week prior, there was a thread on Wests official forum talking about possible record crowd and advising people to arrive early.

With respect to other suburban grounds, No Hill even comes close to Leichhardt's

The Biggest and the Best.

If thats the roof of the toilet blocks Moffo then yes they did have to pay entry, and got told to get down off them

Some of those people are actually on the roofs of nearby houses, outside the Oval grounds.

They were able to stay there the entire game.
