Re: Uli -
How can anyone say they understand?? Yes he's a widower and that's super tough. But he's commanding more coin per year than most of us can dream about! He's been a professional footballer his whole life and if memory serves, he turned down a "blank cheque" from Welnix to go to greener (pun intended) pastures.
Unless there was some sort of duress at play, this needs to be a hefty if not a lifetime ban, sorry.
Also, should Lewis also be involved, to anyone thinking this might make NZF or football in NZ bad, I disagree. Yes, it's likely two players who are ex-Nix are involved. But how many ex-Nixers are there in total and who's been in trouble since? Disco Troy...and I'm struggling to think about anyone else.
Chris Killen, that former AW GK (EDIT: M. Utting, thanks Doloras) who took advantage of the disabled...people will do stupid or greedy stuff at some point in their life, but the responsibility is theirs and theirs alone.
