Worse, I was with then Knights Chairman, Michael Hill.
We looked at each other with a ‘What the...’ look.
As that sinking feeling grew for me, he just laughed.

There has also been a test with the same result

Ashes Series 1929 Series - Game 3 - England (GB) 0 drew with Australia 0 - RLP

Match info page for the England (GB) vs. Australia game in Game 3 of the 1929 Ashes Series, which resulted in a draw at Station Road.

AND in that series in the 4th test it was England 3-0

You probably wanted your money back for that series.
