I made it last week so it would be a bit of a stretch to make it this week, so I'm up for going to some bar in AKL or similar.

I started a thread, but probably didn't have the correct heading.

How many people you got heading down there??

I'm absolutely 100% keen to go to a venue and support the Nix tonight - I drove down to Wellington for the WP v NJ match and would love to get together with some Auckland-based WP fans to watch this match.

Where is the venue and is there a contact person for this? And is it worth forming a WP Auckland fan club?

I like the idea of starting an Auckland YF wing. Might be a good way to get people to one venue for games and also to sort out vans/buses down for games in Wellington. It appears there are quite a few fans up here!

Hey guys, where are we watching the games this year. It would be cool to get a good YF community going up here once and for all. We had a promising start last year but it quickly died off. Fox's Ale House on the Viaduct seem to be making a considerable effort this time, they are advertising this Friday's game as the Weekend's main even on both their website and their Facebook page (even though they have mistakenly said 8 o'clock). I have never seen an Auckland bar actively advertise the A-League before, so we should give them a crack. Anyone else keen?

Tried very hard to do that last season and the response was, to put it politely, an absolute disgrace, despite the bus trip being heavily subsidised by YF.
 
Don't let me a damper on your plans, it will be great if they work out. Me, I'll be flying down for the games or going down in my car if needs must.

Apparently I'm apathetic, but I couldn't care less.

I remember seeing the efforts to get people together to go down for the finals last year go up in flames.

I might be moving back to Auckland (I know, crazy). If I do, then there will definitely be some road trips down for Nix games. I think a start would be for us to watch the games at Foxes/Barfifa to get to know each other - I think that would improve the chances of getting buses/vans/car pools sorted for games. I've been driving down from Thames by myself so there's always room in my Pulsar!

They seem to be doing a good job positioning themselves as Auckland's football pub. The only problem is, while it is great for games, there are too many "waterfront" tools around on Friday and Saturday nights. It was like watchhing the game in a club. Maybe I'm just an old man.

Barfifa - No. Went there a few times was alright. Went there for a game at 930 and they weren't even showing it. The good thing about Foxes is that they would most definitely be showing it. Downside is there drinks are expensive.

In saying that, It is time we got a place to go for every weeks game and not change it. See if we can work something out with the bar if they give us some good options for drinks and food and we bring them in some more people?

What you think?

Agreed. The last thing you'd want is to haul your arse into town to find a bunch of leagueys or rughyheads watching a game, so it would be good to get something going with the pub. But a pub would only cater for us if there was a good number coming in.

Keen to get in on this. The Mrs will be watching fricking Top Model no doubt this Friday so need to get out of the house to see the Nix!
 
Watched 2 of our WC games at Foxs and personally I dont like it. Too crowded with non footy fans and the piss is expensive!
Never been to Barfifa so cant comment on that one.
Have had a quiet jar at Four Nations before and that seemed like a good pub, fairly low key.
Problem with anywhere in the viaduct though is that as soon as it gets to Friday or Saturday nights they all fill up with drunken clowns stumbling around spilling piss all over ya.
Paddingtons was advertising during the WC big time so maybe that would be worth a go? Think its in Parnell...

It has to be a place that will be playing the Nix on their biggest screen, regardless of what eggball is on. I don't fancy our chances!
