I really wish NZF/NZS/NZFA would stop mucking around with our national league but I am happy to have a proper league back. I also hope it has representation from more the just Auckland, Wellington, Christchurch and probably Hamilton.

As a child I got a bigger kick out of watching Waikato United play Nelson and Napier City Rovers or Hamilton FC playing Gisborne then either team playing Miramar or Mt. Wellington.

Now that NZF has a fairly reliable income via long term WC qualification, lets spend some of this money in the regions; BoP, Poverty Bay, Hawkes Bay, Nelson, Otago etc so that we can actually have a national league that represents the nation, not just NZ's four largest cities.
