All Whites, Ferns, and other international teams
The friendly you guys had against Chivas USA: Can someone tell me how many of your usual starters were involved in that match?
Someone please enlighten me! Thanks
Only 5 potential starters didn't go on the tour (Rojas, Wood, Smeltz, Killen, Sigmund).
The first 4 are wingers/forwards, Sigmund is a defender.
+ Chris James, Michael Mcglinchy..?
EDIT: Mcglinchy played against T&T but not Chivas USA

F#$k it!! my plane arrives at 6:15pm, that could F#4k up my boys birthday present!!
Any local knowledge that will help us get to the game b4 7:00pm?
What's the traffic like at that time?
It is going to be too tight IMHO...Look at changing flights..for
$50? I would. Realistically it was tigt anyway for a 35000 sell out crowd
but... Bring no bags so u depart airport faster. U will get caught in match
traffic the closer u get to the stadium. Ask driver to ge tu as close as
possible....maybe off Terrace rather than along Quays
yeah I thought 75mins was a close call but manageable
Google says in Normal traffic its 16mins so I thought allow 45mins we should be sweet!
By the time we get in a taxi will have about 30mins
On a tight budget, (told the misscus we should be able to do the whole trip for under $400.00) but looked at changing times would cost us extra $378.00
(It's currently costing $366.00 +Taxi to stadium all up for air fares. Match tickets, backpackers for a night)
I'm going to be stressing about this for a month until we are seated!
Yeah Mcglinchy joined the squad for the T&T game but I don't think he played against Chivas USA or Ventura County fusion.
Chicarito and Torres nilo are suspended already booked on 57 and 53 minutes vs Costa Rica.
Anyone else noticed how many Mexicans have been posting on the All whites facebook page?
they are 105 millons in MEXICO plus 35 millons more in the U.S. Yes they are insulting and cursing your national team on facebook, it is part of the folk that comes with the beautiful game, nothing more just pure nonsenses from "lumpens" as the germans say
Looks like the games will be pretty good UK time. 8pm and 630am respectively. Can confirm I will be locked in.
Note that NZ Football just announced the Wellington leg will now be at 7 pm NZT "to accomodate overseas TV broadcasts" etc.
Must be some big TV revenue coming NZF's way!!!

OK so we now know time and date for the Wellington game.
Anyone know the time and date of the first leg. Because FIFA site has 13/14th Nov. Some other sites have 13th at 2pm some 14th and NZ papers are saying 15 th.......anyone know the confirmed date/time?
What involvement does Carlos Slim have in Mexican football Javier? I know he is the richest man in the world and owns pretty much the whole country. This man is worth over 70 billion dollars. How you obtain this kind of money LEGALLY is beyond me. If he is heavily involved in Mexican football, surely it is very corrupt.
[quote]Monopolist ways, he's a clever bussines man who got his chance and got it right (obviously there must be some corruption here and there, but most of his wealth was gotten legaly, just taking advantage of gaps in Mexican law about monopoly).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
[quote=JAVIER16]No shit!! i told you so, there's gonna be blood. HERRERA manager from AMERICA FC, will take over, he has the backing from the rich people of Mexico, that is the tv networks, Carlos Slim, TELMEX, TELEMUNDO of USA the latin tv network in the STATES, plus CNN, FOX SPORTS LATIN & ESPN.[quote]
Slim can't get along with Azcarraga, you talking a bunch of bollocks as usual. This is entirely a Televisa thing, Telemundo (NBC), ESPN & much less Telmex aren't involved in this. You keep trying to look like you're in the know with Mexican things, but please... just stop embarrassing yourself.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
[quote=JAVIER16]America FOOTBALL CLub depends on TELEVISA NETWORK, THEY JUST BY THEMSELVES DECIDED THAT CURRENT MANAGER SHOULD BE REMOVED. It is like Barça or the Phoenix or PSG decide by their own who shuould be the manager for the national team, this charade is ridiculous.
No democracy at all,
Carlos Slim is involved in football, at mexico level and CONCACAF LEVEL plus FIFA, and is in some way connected to Shakira, that's why she was the main star in the last 2 world cups doing her "petite repertoire". I know that from a very good source. [quote]
LOL... Slim was never that involved in football, he was one of the biggest sponsors for the airtime (and some clubs here and there), but he liked to keep away from Mexican footie and football in general (Slim is more a fan of racing himself, hence why he preffers to support F1 teams). He just got involved in football two years ago when he broke up totally with Televisa & TV Azteca and stopped being a sponsor, so now he has shares in Grupo Pachuca and Estudiantes Tecos, but that's all... the power in the FMF has always been more up to Televisa & TV Azteca along with FEMSA, CEMEX & Vergara (Chivas owner).
I won't even comment in his involvement with FIFA and Shakira, again, you're just talking things out of your arsehole as usual.
They won't refund Airfares
Just resign myself that I may miss the start!
Yeah I think u will but hopefully taxi will get you close enough quick. Hopefully most traffic will have got there by 6,30pm so you might get a straight run to close to the stadium..then its just joining the queue through the gates..and 35000 is a lot to get thru. 16min normal time is optimistic.....Good luck.
A small town in Europe........looking to bounce straight back up....well that aint going to happen

HEAPS OF TIME FROM AIRPORT TO THE STADIUM whoops caps. half an hour is loads.
I LOVE LAMP
Decided to add some indigenous weight to this conversation
Be really interested 2 know peoples 11 NZ vs The Vertically Challenged
4 wht its worth here's mine :
MOSeS
The Moari Monster The Turncoat Tommyboy
Tuiloma (the wonder kid) Storm in a teacup
Hendo(mania) Weemac Kiwi Messi Kostic-soda
Wood (it in ffs)
subs : Keat (our very own ginge+ ball playing skills), Smeltz (where's that rat ?), bOXall, SPOONley, Pain, Oink, Leo. Shame about Kill-em could of imagined him getting a goal there - given his brash resilence & would have been right in their faces. Need a certain level of psychological domination.
Hopefully Winston has another useful chat with Sam Allardichi about the superlatives of playing a variation to the 4-6-0 re the 5-4-1. So lets just not park the bus, lets park the whole bus depot ! using quickness, skill & guile on the break - with the ocasional hoof-ball (thanks Tommy pay attention to Winstom hes learning to play out) for good measure & to keep them guessing.
btw Im not sure why theres murmurs doubting Winston's comittment - he was superb in the T&T match (my motm) contained the beast Jones well & they love him at West Ham and rightly so, consistenly in the top 3 for the Hammers this year imo.
GO THE ALL WHITES!!! fortitudinem, et honorem !
Does anyone here have any idea why Javier Hernandez no longer has a yellow card and will no longer miss the Azteca game?

Someone please enlighten me! Thanks
Some of the other replies you've received here fail to mention all of the many players missing:
Of the "usual" or potential starters missing were: #1 goalie Glen Moss, very experienced defender Ben Sigmund (last World Cup), defender/ defensive midfielder Ivan Vicelich (former Dutch First Div. pro and most experienced member of team), Tim Payne (Blackburn Rovers, England, defensive midfielder), Leo Bertos (wing-back/ winger - very experienced veteran of last World Cup)
And most of our first-choice strikers - Rojas, Smeltz, Wood, Killen (none of them traveled and Killen will miss the Mexico games) They are our main goal-scoring threat (Rojas = Stuttgart, Bundesliga; Wood = Leicester City, England; Smeltz = top-scorer in most seasons of A-League in Australia). The remaining strikers who played v Chivas don't score many e.g. Brockie has never scored for NZ and Fallon plays in the Scottish Premier League but is more a target man and doesn't score many.
So, actually nine potential first choice players missing due to injury (Moss, Vicelich and Bertos picked up injuries on the tour but are not serious injuries).

I read it on reddit http://www.reddit.com/r/soccer/comments/1oog6i/chicharito_yellow_card_mistakenly_reported_fifa/
I'm sure I remember the referee showing a yellow to Hernandez and then he got subbed off but according to the Fifa match report he never received a yellow and was subbed off before the yellow was given to Marquez.

Nine frontline #allwhites are on a yellow card. Another booking in the away leg at the Azteca mean they'll miss the home leg #WC2014

Even if Chicharito is cleared up from the suspension don't expect him to get much playing time. The new head coach will play Jimenez instead cos thats one of his players from Club America.

Any local knowledge that will help us get to the game b4 7:00pm?

It is going to be too tight IMHO...Look at changing flights..for
$50? I would. Realistically it was tigt anyway for a 35000 sell out crowd
but... Bring no bags so u depart airport faster. U will get caught in match
traffic the closer u get to the stadium. Ask driver to ge tu as close as
possible....maybe off Terrace rather than along Quays
yeah I thought 75mins was a close call but manageable
Google says in Normal traffic its 16mins so I thought allow 45mins we should be sweet!
By the time we get in a taxi will have about 30mins

"normal traffic" time is 16 mins?
That would be at 5 am rather than when there is moderate traffic.
You might need to ask the driver if it will be quicker to go "around the bays" instead of through the Mt Vic tunnel at that time of day if you think the traffic will be mental.
