There is probably more room for them there at NHS, The Wahs have a pretty good set up but it is theirs.AucklandPhoenix
Believe the pacific rugby team have dropped mt smart for training and moved to North Harbour due to the superior training facilities
No idea what commercial sponsors Moana Pasika have behind them, or how much money they get from NZR to run their team (they are part of the NZ Conference - Fiji Drua is in the Australia Conference). But MP's crowds at Mt Smart for Super Rugby Pacific have been pretty pitiful.
I don't imagine they have alot of spare cash. That won't be a problem for Foley, and the Wahs will be happy enough to welcome Auckland FC bling, if he throws a few million dollars at upgrading the training, rehab & media facilities in Penrose for everyone.
ie knocking Mt Smart over and starting with a clean slate.
Hate to say it but every stadium in Auckland needs knocking down or replacing, Kiwitea Street included. All substandard for what they are (piecemeal national stadium (EP), half missing stand (NHS), athletics track in South Auckland (Mt. Smart), not enough space (Kiwitea)).
Why not rebuild Newmarket Park. It was the spiritual home of football in Auckland.
