The Man On The Door
Throughout a Test match there are many people that go unnoticed and that no more so than the stewards and security guards that look after all the supporters that come in to Trent Bridge every day of the Test Match. On entering he Rushcliffe Suite this morning , Brian on the door told me of his delight to be moved away from the gates but also how much fun and enjoyment he has working at Trent bridge for a Test Match. He told me how much banter he has with the likes of Nasser Hussain and Ricky Ponting as they come into the ground but also at his irration at the likes of Ian Botham, who he referred to as a ‘pain in the backside’. He loves the fact he’s meeting and interacting with different people everyday but a change in position is nice and he’s looking forward as all of us to England bringing home the Ashes.
Business is booming
On a glorious day at Trent Bridge, seats start to fill up with people eagerly awaiting an England victory on day three. A sell out expected today, means positive for business around the ground, i popped along to an off license before the gates opened to see how much of an effect the Trent Bridge crowd has on business.
“With the football season starting, business heightens. When Trent Bridge hosts a test, i think it is the busiest period we have, but it’s good to see that.” It has been a cracking test match so far, on and off the field. We will see if England can wrap the game up in the first session.
