Cost of Christchurch trip
Not quite as bad as I suspected, but a spot of proof reading would help.
Willement Sports travel being a sponsor of the nix i emailed them today to express interest :P
It was a good email to i think
Just hope their was a minor grammar improvement on your post.It was a good email to i think
The delicious irony of you misspelling "there" when complaining about someone else's grammar was not lost on me.

has that been confirmed?
and the games in palmy and christchurch will be fun aslong as they dont do more than two a season.
Yes and no... officially no, and we all have to act surprised when it is. 
The very fact that we lose home ground advantage is only the beggining
Except you don't. Can't see the people of CHCH supprting Adelaide over Wellington....
It is not just the crowd - it is the fact that players have a routine for home games that involves them being in their own abode and having family around them, as opposed to sitting all day in a hotel room watching one of their team mates picking his toenails.
It could also disrupt their routine having to prepare in unfamiliar changing rooms....
Frankie, do you have any insight into South Island changing rooms you could share with us.....

Don't say I didn't warn you when they get beat down in Scumchurch because the players all end up in each others boots, shorts, etc because they don't know where they are supposed to be in the changing room before the game. Different sized pegs, benches instead of chairs, tiles instead of carpet - it all makes a difference.
i dont see why they made the palmerston north game a 7:00pm kick off. if it was earlier then surley much more people would come up for the match from wellingon?

heaven forbid the players having to cope with unfamiliar changing rooms. basically guarantees us losing away to gold cost & fury.

my flights worked out cheaper with air new zealand
All i can say is im hoping to meet a fair few of you.. So far ive only met Brumbies from the fever (:
It's all down hill from there to be fair.
My Mums friend is coming up from CHCH in august so she used jetstar to book hers and shes getting $60 Return.Of course that's no accommodation but i'll be staying with them anyway

ok great to hear about your mums friend HK - but can we have
all travel banter in the dangerous liasons thread now pls.
My mate has decided to take his camper van down, so there is going to be five of us going, will be going down on the friday ferry was hoping there might be a bit of a convoy from Picton. Should be a great weekend.

Palmy is acceptable for one year only - Christchurch is not. Next stop New Zealand Phoenix, ah please no!!! This excuse to go to Christchurch is just softening up for a regular fixture, shouldn't be happening.
we will never go down the road of NZ phoenix, automatically kills any chance of another kiwi team getting in to the league. A Palmy game is a great idea, its close enough to wellignton, and besides as long as the nix do something re travel prices which I think they are plannign then all good.
A true fan will go where the game is, its the same as travelling to an away game!

So none of us are true fans then, as I don't think anyone took in all the away games....
WELL I HAVE DONE THE MATH WE HAVE BEEN THROWN OUT OF THE ROF FOR AC/DC OH WHAT JOY! 
THERES A DECISION I WOULD PRFFER NOT TO MAKE
THERES A DECISION I WOULD PRFFER NOT TO MAKE

Cock Rock Alienation.

Fly on the Wall was their best Album. I think I'll try and make the Nix game instead.
http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=176807775623&ref=nf - Go here if you are going to the Acca Dacca concert...
Sadly, the Phoenix game will be getting missed that night as I have wanted to see AC/DC for a long time...
I'm a true fan heading over from Adelaide from this match.
Haha, nah it actually fits in well with my trip to Chile leaving from Auckland. Any idea of venue?

Will probably take those flights but not take the package as I can stay with relatives.
Good to see a package being put together. But its a little steep for me.
What a rip off package deal!! Deal for who? Not the fans.
Jetstar air fare, night at CHCH airport (Free) or stay with friends (FREE) Sorry Willament travel, but really, you can do better than that and you know it.
Apparently Matthew Johns has a few tips on what hotels to stay at, LG!!!

I've bolded the key word for you, just in case you missed it!!! didn't say all the away games. Anyway, you've got plenty of cheap airfares around if you look hard enough. Stay in a backpackers if your too cheap to go with the wilament package.
Vickmiest has booked out tickets and somewhere to stay. So who is actually going as we should all meet up?
I know that Me, Vickmeist and Capes is going. Who else?
