People come here to discuss things to do with the football club. Sometimes that means possibly disagreeing with the club 

But it seems like every recruitment decision made so far this off season has led to whining, angst or at least disappointment (apart from the Premature Weemaculation). It's like Ernie can do no right. 

There's a perception that New Zealanders are negative and will tear every little thing down which isn't quite perfect, and regrettably I see that coming through in our A-League fan-base. Perhaps there's bleed-through from the ill-feeling about the Petone schemozzle.

I am thinking that the end of the Nix might have nothing to do with Welnix pulling out or results on the field, but that the core supporters have gotten into this position where - as Mike Moore would have said - the "phone is off the hook", i.e. whatever happens won't restore people's faith.
