"I mean would ALL Nix fans be hunky dory with 10 Chloe Swarbricks walking up the ROF causeway waving Palestinian flags chanting 'from the river the sea', joined by 10 Marama Davidsons chanting 'down with white CIS men'. "
Thank you for that look inside your imagination lol

But also tut-tutting from above and looking to shut down a perspective using ‘civility’ as the main driver is equally a worry. Finding discussing the structure of power crass means you’ve got it usually! Kids can wear mullets. Grown men can wear sandals and jeans. Doesn’t mean we should ban them from football games.
I do agree that the use of the word ultra a bit incongruous and a concern, but we’re dealing with something new for NZ.
Wellington is a bit of a smaller knit community. I don’t think a lot of groups make sense. But Auckland is spread out and a lot of different things. I’m sure they’ll be able to cope with a few different groups enjoying the football for different reasons.
I remember the A league, coming out of the ethnically aligned clubs which preceded them had a policy on the exclusion of foreign flags. I’m not sure if that is still the case.
Anyway, I’m sure AFC will be happy to have the fans if they’re regular supporters and maybe there’ll be some discussion around fan codes of conduct if anyone gets too concerned.
Edit: and if they want to have a standing zone then surely they’ve already approached the club?
