I’m just going to say a short word in Foley’s defense.
We know he’s passionate about his sport. We know he’s done a fantastic job at Bournemouth as part of his football family, and in hockey in Vegas.
We know he comes from a military background and cares a lot about the ‘Black Knights’ who are I believe a group of Polish knights who made a decisive charge to halt the progress of the Ottoman army in Europe. Though I’m not 100% on that.
We know he owns some restaurants, bars and at least was friendly enough with Rob to talk to him about the A league.
We know he’s donated to Trump. However, this may be the cost of doing business in the US. You look at all the billionaires on stage with Trump. They don’t really espouse politics, they want advantages and contracts or continued favourable conditions for their businesses.
Foley is not running for political office and hasn’t put forward a list of his political views. Unsurprisingly for rich Americans he seems conservative and Christian, and interested in sports. Unusually he’s interested in the world outside the US too, beyond on a ledger. He’s interested in our football. This has been great for NZ football so far.
We don’t know exactly what his political philosophy is, and even if he was dyed in the wool for Trump it is hard to know exactly what that means as a philosophy, because Trump gets support from a wide group.
As for the Nix success no one will convince me Rufer is not a winner or that he’s too nice. We haven’t realised perhaps just how close to winning we were last season. 4 metres against CC when we backed off.
We had all the snarl with Uffie. Unfortunately with our best shot COVID happened.
Auckland are doing well because they have a good team and playing ahead of that good team they have a very good team. And they’ve got that new team focus from everyone.
I know we’ve been on Chief’s case a little this season, but he seems to have a simpler philosophy than Uffie in that it’s defence first, which wins titles, and then winning by one or two. If we back him, I think we have a great shot at winning in the next two seasons.
