I'm mid twenties and steer well clear of Facebook. Only thing I use it for is its messaging platform. In general I think social media is a cancer and as an avid Nix fan it is a godsend that I found this website - honestly you guys need to advertise more because its great here! I could never stomach joining one of those Nix Facebook groups, they look grim as fudge.
Anyway, moral of the story is Auckland should 100% do something similar to this site. Even if they totally rip off this site it would be all good. I'd actually love to be able to raid their site and foster some good banter!

That first paragraph also sums up my own situation completely. I'd also add that one of the earliest childhood and teenage memories of the internet was using forums So while their mainstream appeal seems to have disintegrated across the board, I'm getting a two for one deal of a place to engage with other active lovers of the club I support but also the wider community of NZ Football as a whole, and a nostalgia trip of the good ol' forum accessing days.
I have no connection to Wellington at all save for a few friends that live that way. But I'm an NZ football fan, and Wellington has the only professional football club in NZ. When noises first started being made about an Auckland expansion team I entertained that it would make more sense for me as someone who did at one point spend seven years living in Auckland but then I quickly remembered this here YF forums and thought "nah bugger that noise. Nix till I die!"
