game thread

on the bench at sc**thorpe i think

Who?

Scu
nthorpe

i wud think tht in the international windows next year we need to be playing asian teams, hopefully we can tee up a couple of games against oz. maybe play them in london again, make it easier to get our top team there. has to be in a window though

thts a novel way to avoid censorship

I think FNZ are trying to line up friendlies against Asian teams for next year. Would be good to play in London in the a league off season.

Bertos,Smeltz and Mulligan had a great game!!

would love to see them in wellington again. so gutted i cant be there tonight

Same I Did'nt Know It Would Be This Good of A Game

Cant believe theres no tv coverage only on the internet it sucks watching it off the computer!!

That is very very stupid.

red for browny

Tim Brown Red Card :O:O

4-1 Great result!!

does that mean brown misses Nix?

Great result... pity about the red..

No.

Good coz it was a stupid red card

Shouldn't sign Mulligan or Bertos for the Nix.

Instead make an A-league team in Christchurch and have them sign Mulligan and Bertos. Then when the All Whites have to play the Phoenix don't lose all of their players.

What a great idea I'm off to Canty Uni next year

it was a stupid referee ... good game overall I think, even though I missed the first half due to work, but second half of the second half we looked good, although I would like to see a bit more urgency in the form of coming towards the ball when its passed instead of waiting for it, speeds up the game a bit more, doesn't look so lax ... when it comes to playing the bigger teams (like World Cup Playoff against the Asian team), they will need to work on this

ALL WE WANT IS A DECENT REFEREE A DECENT REFEREE

Christie was so crap. Vicilich, Smeltz and Mully played well. MOTM Bertos

Someone do a MOTM topic

No point - Bertos wins. 

Congrats to the boys.

Gonna be good having Leo at the Nix next year..

christie was pretty average indeed, wish he showed a bit more enthusiasm to be in the game.

bertos one of the best players on the pitch by far, lochhead solid at the back and mulligan creating alot of play from the centre, smeltz composed as usual and finished both goals well, could have had a couple more if not for some gutsy saves from vanuatu goalkeeper. ben sigmund very nice around the centre also, can jump bloody high!!

jarrod smith looks like an absolute twat showpony haha

Watching TVNZ coverage.  Sumner and Hickey good value.  Greg Larmer.  Hory.

Game being discussed now on Radio Sport.  Ring up if you were there.

[QUOTE=monkeyboy]christie was pretty average indeed, wish he showed a bit more enthusiasm to be in the game.

Thought Christie had a shocker...gave the ball away....lost count at 7(thats only about40m into the first half).  Was watching him before there goal and he made no effort to get goal side.... apart from that - great effort - team and white NOISE

I have only see the 2nd half (live) but the referee was OK  whatsoever.

It is bloody annoying chanting ,in fact it was childish.

One thing making noise, the other thing to make stupid noise. It should not be done ex when your team is up 3 goals and playing all right.

Support your own team.

Zole's signature ......

Is there a thread open involving discussion about the national football governing body's pathetic lack of publicity and organisation to bring supporters to the match tonight.....????

And the fact it cost more than a phoenix game...

There are a few questions here that need to be answered. Maybe Seatts will provide the reasons for these decisions? K.O. time, T.V coverage,cost of tickets, perceived lack of publicity.

Chanting like referee is w**ker ETC.

1st In fact thoose *() stupid kids should learn no to do that.
2nd Ref has every rights to STOP the game for racist etc chanting, insulting opposit team violent crowd behavior etc.

If he ref puts it in his report of the match NZ could be fined, as disciplinary.
Depending on what have been done, Like whenTurkey insulted Swiss players FIFA can take away the home games to netural venue overturn result.
