Bit of a side note but am I the only one nervous about AFC starting an academy? Obviously, it'd be good for NZ as a whole but for the Nix it'll mean we'll stop getting the top NZ talent. If you're a young up-and-coming footballer who's academy would you rather go to; the one that's part of a multi-club ownership program with numerous pathways to Europe or the one that doesn't?
The other way to look at it is, or initially the one that has a record of getting young players into teams in Europe and America and representing NZ at various levels. Would also imagine the appeal of living in Auckland isnt for everyone. Then again that could also be said about Wellington i guess.
