NCR splashing out and sending team down night before for away games in Wellington. No excuses now Billy.

Your comment about "splashing out" shows your lack of financial knowledge and how travelling away really works.  The cost of a hotel for the night before, and two vans to travel, roughly works out at the same as taking a bus down and back on the same day.  The necessity for two bus drivers puts the cost up as it is a long day.  With a minimum of 9 trips away each season anything that makes life a bit easier for everyone involved is worthwhile.

NCR can't pull the under resourced over achieving BS now. 
As a club anything less then a top 3/4 finish in Central league has been a failure for the past 30 years! So to finish 4th a scrap in last year was minimum. And then they pull out the 1st time in 20 years comment about playing national league... umm because you weren't able to. PR bs



I'll admit I've never organised a long away trip myself (been on a few though!), but are you genuinely claiming that putting a squad of at least 14 players, coaches, and a bus driver into a hotel overnight is cheaper than just hiring two bus drivers for the day?

Honestly, anything other than two vans and going there and back in a day is splashing out imo.
