Just sat through the entire Richmond vs FC Nelson Sprig & Fern game. I'd be ready to book the top Christchurch side into the MPL... dreadful game. Richmond were actually in with a sniff for most of the game before FC Nelson finally broke the deadlock. If they had some Nelson College players, throw in Henry Fa'arado and they would be better, but fail to see them making the grade in the MPL.
Marlborough has also ditched itself from the Nelson first div. So FC Nelson are the only team that will go for promotion if they win it.
