    OK - I thought had written something a little similar.

    I did here

    This was prior to the first Western Force match in 2006 - when I was known by another name. The actual story of that trip was kinda funny too.

    Speaking of money, against the sharks I had my beautiful pink force-shirt on and I was coming from city centre, some hopeless country bum without a clue about trains and stuff. So I waltzed up to the ticket-checker and he made me and my two friends go and buy tickets which we thought was fair enough. Then apparently we bought the wrong ones so we had to go get more - turns out I get free train travelling stuff because I'm a force member That's 5 bucks I'll never get back thanks to nasty train-ticket-checkers.

    But it's priceless watching our boys win

    A kick in this game is like a rather nasty alcoholic shooter, only as good as it's chaser...

    That is outrageous! Have you tried the complaints line?

    The complaints line :

    ...will involve you spening an hour being diverted by phone messages to the right section after which you will be transferred frequently until someone in the right department actually gets on the line. After finally reaching the right department, you will talk to a kid who started 2 days ago and has no clue what they can do for you...and doesn't care. Forget the money, save yourself an hour of your life.

    M: I want to complain.
    C: You want to complain! Look at these shoes. I've only had them three weeks and the heels are worn right through.
    M: No, I want to complain about...
    C: If you complain nothing happens, you might as well not bother.
    M: Oh!
    C: Oh my back hurts, it's not a very fine day and I'm sick and tired of this office.
