Again with the completely unfounded allegation that NZF have at any point funded the Phoenix further than paying part of Ricki's salary as he is All Whites coach.
You know that if you keep saying it over and over again it doesn't suddenly become verified fact?
I think what you propose is entrirely correct and would be an appropriate spend for NZF but it's got nothing to do with the Phoenix and in fact by throwing that in there you undermine the valid point.
