Whilst I think allocation/methodology for Chatham Cup was as good as it could be, I think KS Cup allocation/methodology could be improved.
2 teams in Central region needing byes, should assign them to the two best teams in the Central League last year (Wellington Utd, Waterside Karori) instead of allocating by random to Petone and Seatoun. Now we have ended up with Wellington Utd taking on Phoenix Reserves and 1 of those sides being eliminated unnecessarily early.
What also irks me is teams not entering.
Central and Manukau from Northern Championship
Taradale from Central League.
IMHO There should be a push to get every 1st team from the top 3 or 4 levels of the pyramid.

sorry brain fade - yes that is annoying.
