Venue confirmed. Ticket prices not. Expect further prevarication.

It's never easy 
When you're up against the world
And home is far away
You feel you're on your own
So it's good to know that
Back home they're watching you
Wanting you to know
You'll never be alone

We're heading for the top
And aiming for the future
And we won't ever stop
While we are in control
We'll fight until we drop
And always we'll remember
To play the game as best we can
To reach our final goal

Some people like to say
That we're too small to try
But it's not always size alone that takes the prize
Gonna do the best we can
And hold our heads up high
And very soon
The world will realise

We're heading for the top
And aiming for the future
And we won't ever stop
While we are in control
We'll fight until we drop
And always we'll remember
To play the game as best we can
To reach our final goal

A lot of people said
We'd never make it through
Said it was just a great impossibility
But as we pressed ahead
They saw what we could do
And what was once a dream
Became reality

[Chorus x2]
And we're heading for the top
And aiming for the future
And we won't ever stop
While we are in control
We will fight until we drop
And always we'll remember
To play the game as best we can
To reach our final goal

YAY, just signed up for the waitlist. But think being a season holder also gives you presales...

I'm positive things will go wrong.

"Our relationship with New Zealand Football has been good, we're going up on Friday and I don't think they would put us through a whole lot of trouble if they didn't want us. We've lined up some good marketing strategies, similar to the Bahrain match, we've got good partners to assist us so there's no stone left unturned in terms of trying to get this game. We've put in a bloody good bid."

"Another shot for glory"?

They should call it "Another Glory Shot" or "One More Glory Shot"

One More Glory Shot handily abbreviates to OMGs as in "OMGs I'm like totes looking forward to the All Whites game, YOLO!"



Termy and I will willingly forego our marketing fees as long as the proceeds for OMGs is invested in copious supplies of tim tams and thermos flasks for Wgtn coal-faced supporters.  Bovril at the RoF would be good too.

"I just hope she doesn't unstitch the deal since she hasn't really been involved at all.

"I hope she doesn't stuff it up for Wellington."

He he, I hope John Morrison was the first to rush into Celia's office and congratulate her on the superb job she obviously did selling Wellington as the venue!

They say the bids from Auckland and Wellington were 'extremely close', so for all we know she nearly fucked it up.

Nah man. It was going to be Auckland until she got down on her knees and begged them to give her One More Glory Shot.

She's a legend!

Superb photoshopping skills there. How'd you manage to superimpose a golden trophy over the pair of nuts he is quite clearly holding?

It's times like these that I wish there was an "ignore" function.
That is a horrible image that will require much scotch to make me forget it.

True..we also have to hope we are not 5-0 down on first leg!  Will be interesting to see how many pre first leg sales there are.
