That's a hell of a pre season for the Jets - that alone might have been enough for Ridenton to go!
I wonder how that's being funded. Wouldn't it be great if we could get a half decent team to come down and play a couple of games against the Nix pre season - maybe in Wgton and then Auckland.
Even a decent Championship side with name recognition like Aston Villa or Sheffield United would probably draw decent crowds.
Wouldn't have star players, but shouldn't cost as much as an EPL side.
Clearly you're not up with the state of the Championship. Villa have several star players with plenty of top league experience. Their squad's worth like £70m.
Can't wait to pop down to the Cake Tin to get a view of Gabby Agbonlahor and Glenn Whelan
