Crowd stat query? NZ/Paraguay
Profile pic. Should you be interested. Lakhsen, on the right, lost touch with him.
Mohammed, on the left, I'm still in touch with. He's now living in Agadez, Niger. More focused on his animals now as tourism has dried up. Is active with a co-op promoting local goods, leather work and bijouterie, into Europe.

(I am can't see this on any other thread...)
I was told that the crowd on Tuesday was the SECOND highest for an INTERNATIONAL by NZ in Wellington.  Anyone know if that is correct?

What was NZ AUssie in 2001(ish) for Oceania when we lost 2-0 and Batty assisted the aussie striker's header?
Oh Wellington is wonderful. We got the wind, the rain and the phoenix. Oh Wellington is wonderful.

Ha.  Just notice that says Newtown park.

Be cosy there with 19,500 in.

Classic Tiatto as well, broke Killen's arm from memory inside 20 minutes on the pitch.

I do wonder but I can't find any trace of anything so far.
 
Got things like - 12,000 at the Basin when we drew with Australia 1-1 in 1922.

How about some of the older games at the Basin ?
Unlikely, though I thought I'd check Wiki to see if it had any historic attendance figures for the Basin given that its capacity is around 11k now.

This is an extract (and ONLY mention of football) ... "In addition to cricket, other sports have also used the Basin Reserve, including rugby union, a rugby league test match, a football pre-season match and exhibition Australian rules football matches".

Eh?

I know, I know, its serious!

Not really answering "Eh?" but... In Wellington's early days "football" games were often played under "Victorian rules" as they called them.

.

While 1874 saw the near cessation of football in Wellington,
the next year was one of both confusion and solidarity. The indifference of the past year
had carried forward and a growing movement for the implementation of Victorian
rules existed. So much so that along with the Wellington Club, two new clubs both
under Victorian rules were formed. Eventually a set of unique, hybrid rules was developed
and the games began to be contested under these rules. A problem came to head
when the annual Nelson contest meant that rugby rules had to be used. Eventually, the

decision was to return to that game, and following the Auckland tour later that year, it
was solidly set as the version of football in Wellington.
