All whites can win. they just need to be wary of this team.


Bahrain win playing their neighbours, which to them isn't all that different to playing at home.

That's like us playing in Melbourne. Not really much of a big change in location or atmosphere.

Travelling a few thousand miles to a country they would rarely if ever visit, the climate being completely different to 90% of their other qualifying games, shows how good they will be.

Bahrains biggest trips outside of the tropics have been Japan and Australia. Somewhat better opposition than the All Whites, but Bahrain lost both of those away games.

Just picked up a part-time gig on Saturdays before I remembered it would clash with the game.
(Note for next life: don't get married, or have kids on a teacher's salary)
 
However, have just checked local listings for ESPN and it's on. I think they've got the time wrong, but at the moment it looks like I finish work in time to get to the pub and watch the second half. Alternatively, I avoid all media until 10:30pm and try to convince a pub owner to put on the replay for me.

We have played with Uzbekistan in the same weather in New Zealand, and the journey arduous, and won the game despite the expulsion of one player.
We went in the 21-hour trip to Trinidad and Topajua in the most difficult trip to the team, and we drew 1-1 there
There is no comparable to that of Australia, Rank 24 of the world, and Japan (40), although, we have provided strong performance and we lost narrowly.

Dammitall how long are these pages?
 
Tigers - I read that Paston is unlikely to
play on Weds but not sure about
anything beyond that.
 
He looked very unhappy at half time
sitting on the physio table.

You are lackluster, when you use code 
I do not understand what you are say, but the beautiful thing, it's cood chance  to learn
Scrooge's catchphrase, "Bah, humbug!" is often used to express disgust with many of the modern Christmas traditions.

Allow me, my friend, re-written previously about the weather
We in Bahrain enjoy with cold, our car is air-conditioned, air-conditioned homes, our markets, air-conditioned, all on the degree of 18 to 25  degrees Celsius.
We are in the summer vacation escape (if we get a chance )  to the cold countries  because we can not afford to heat .
We love cold
You can ask any specialist Physiology of the nature of the human body, that man is comfortable in the cool temperate (10-25 degrees Celsius), we correctly in the desert weather, but we live atmosphere of a European



About Weather
Bahrain played against Uzbekistan in February 2009 and won 1-0, the temperature was 7 d Celsius With an audience 30 thousand.
 
Bahrain played against Inter Milan in August 2009 and the temperature was 12 degrees in Austria and lost narrowly in front of a very strong team 0-1
 
Bahrain played against Australia and lost narrowly 2-0, and the preference to Bahrain, and the temperature was 9 degrees Celsius with an audience 40 thousand.
 
League in Bahrain extends to the winter evenings the temperature is between 10 to 15 degrees Celsius and winter begins in Bahrain from December to February, with a very strong wind most days of winter.
We in Bahrain , weather that we do't give importance to this game.
My sincere greetings to you dear

However our friend Mr Bahrain.... When Wellington is good.. they say you cannot beat it on a good day...
When it is bad....... it may be similar to a 7 -8 degrees on a thermometer but with a nice southerly wind it can get a little unpleaseant (with wind chill factored in... about 3-4 degrees) if it is not raining and very unpleasent when it is raining (2-3 degrees with the rain going almost horizontal to the pitch)

Have just seen a photo of Thai fans on their way to local FA Cup Final, where a large group of THai Port FC fans in home shirts drove in convoy on motorbikes and in the back of pickup trucks through Bangkok to the National Stadium. caused a bit of a stir and lots of folks took photos. Don't know if it raised TV viewership, but stadium looked full.

Maybe too late in the piece for organising this, but what about a mass walk-up to the stadium through the city? I realise that the YF/WN faithful are probably planning to do this from the Backbencher, but what about a student march-style parade down Willis St and Lambton Quay, all dressed in white, and chanting. (Giving newbies plenty of practise before they get to the ground)
 
Even in 1 out of every 5 fans attending turns up, that's still 7000 or so. Will certainly get the attention of the weekend shoppers, and in turn raise the profile of the event and the team, especially if we get through.

Of statistical weather last year, will be very appropriate temperature between 10 to 18 degrees, on the whole, we wish to see the game fun and interesting

 Mr Bahrain,
 
Brian O'Driscoll seemed to enjoy the Wellington weather a few years back when he visited.
 
I hope your boys do the same.

But that was in June, on one of the worst nights that Wellington's dished out in a while. Won't get that bad in November, even if it is bad.

Generally think there's too much talk of the weather, don't really think it's going to be a huge factor.
