The ACFC fans behind me were spitting tacks at Tade (when they weren't spitting tacks at the referee for letting TW get away with "thuggery")

Anyway, a moment of silence for our old friends, the "Knitting Circle" - the Phoenix have now officially outlasted ACFC, the embodiment of "Kiwi coalface football" which was in fact a franchise propped up by pokie money.
Auckland City have confirmed that going forward in the new system they will take Central’s place in NRFL Prem so will continue in the new format the same as Hamilton Wanderers and Eastern Suburbs, so they’re not quite dead yet

That's the big unanswered question about the new National League, though - will the amateur regulations mean anything, or will ACFC/Central just continue to rort the Trillian Trust like they used to? 

If ACFC/Central becomes just a NRFL club like other clubs - neither better nor worse than Auckland United, Northern Rovers or Western Springs - then my resentment towards the Knitting Circle types who gloated when Terry S went bankrupt may die away.
