2013/14 Fixtures

Also looks like FFA are disregarding the FIFA windows again. Multiple Nix games scheduled during them, including round one.

vs Jest in Napier?

I think my head is about to explode!!!

Napier used to have a big football following when I lived there,Im not sure about now.From memory the hawkes bay show and national under 19 tournament used to be on around that time so they could draw a half decent crowd to the game hopefully.

Wow, that's just under 1/4 of our home games not in Wgtn. Not liking that.

Sunday games:
4 games at 5:00pm
3 games at 7:00pm

Saturday games:
2 games at 5:30pm
1 games at 7:30pm

Those Sunday times are garbage. Thanks Fox.

effing horrible draw - absolute garbage

Also pretty pissed at club for the games thrown around the country

There is no redeeming feature about a 7:00 Sunday game.

I registered my protest about the three away the other day when I heard the rumour.

That two months without a game here is a joke. 

Twelve Pubs a Sunday.

GGF.

My season ticket better be around $150.

I'll bash it out here.  Poor crowds out of town now the novelty has worn off and we had a bad season, then awful scheduling for the games here will see Gareth whining about crowds by the 16th December.

Note it in your diaries.

I undestand the 3rd TBA game might be here. Depends on ground availability.

Worse draw than last year.

Positive:
No friday game

Negative:
Sunday kick off times.
No double headers
Two months between home games

usually for the draw we are all a bit meh about it which was expected.. but this is just out of order. So pissed

Well done club and FFA not sure how you expect to build a fan base when you give us a joke of a draw like that.FFS 7 oclock on a sunday give yourselves a bloody great uppercut.So we have become the travelling circus hope the bloody club isnt go to try and slug us with a club membership fee as well as our season pass.So much for people showing loyalty about the club showed us some.

Did it for Wellington Welnix give yourselves an uppercut as well.

Not abloody happy foundation member i can tell you. 

So , at the start of the season when we are looking to; restore team confidence, reinvigorate crowd support and public interest and get some decent results under our belt, we are playing 5 of the first 6 games away from Westpac - just fucking dumb.

 ...and every chance the first game will be a B-Side with the AWs probably playing then.

Terrible draw if you live in Wellington

Two games in Auckland no doubt

No.

Napier, Auckland, Christchurch (Probably)

Oh dear

No Moss, Sigmund, Durante, Lochhead, Bertos, Fenton?, Brockie potentially. Oh dear

i live in wanganui and still feel it is a terrible draw

Is that officialish?

shit draw. I wonder if they knew that the time slots were shite, so they took 3 on the road so they dont have to hire the westpack to hold 3000 on a sunday night and lose a punt of money. Im guessing they have cheap as fuck venues lined up... somewhere like Haruatai park in Otaki im imagining.

Under 19s weekend.  Sunday of a long weekend.

Could be MASSIVE!

The one bright light of the draw (actually Sydney for the 12 Pubs is a result, just a disaster that it is a Sunday).

Fifa windows:
12-16 Oct - game on 13th
16-20 Nov - Bye
5 March -  Game on 2nd. Game on 9th.

Were NZF planning their double header in Sept or Oct?

Also Victory v Nix at Etihad ugh. 

I thought the fixture list was made up in colaberation with the clubs [I think the NRL do it that way] this looks like it was made up by someone  playing with themselves while feeding the dog his breakfast  !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

what is wrong with the Sunday games?  The last time I wore a bikini to a game was a Sunday game kicking off at (possibly) somewhere around 5pm.  Fun times.

That was back in the days when we got a crowd.Its no so much sunday games but the timing 7 on a sunday nite makes it bloody hard for those out of town.

Here is the Phoenix draw in electronic calendar format - you should be able to not only open the calendar to view it, but easily add it to your Google calendar or other format. Please let me know if you have problems adding it to your calendar:

144 days to kick-off.

Sorry - yes you should be able to add it as an additional calendar (not sure if it will live update when I change those venues), but I'm unsure how/if you can easy copy each individual entry into your calendar without doing it manually. I never thought about that actually - good point. Let me know if you find out please.

I had no issue with Sunday games when it was 4-30pm kick off but 7-00pm is just a joke. I used to catch the bus from Palmy but there's no way I'll get a return bus that late at night. Seriously having second thoughts about renewing my season ticket.
