On the 30th, our game against the Fury also happens to be our 50th Home A League game (Including 2 games in CHCH and 1 at the Ring of Dirt).
 
Any others whom have also attended every game?? And should Ricki make the next two home games, it will be only his 49th. He had to go to South Africa and missed one.

The Fury game is the 50th, I checked with our favourite announcer, this weekend will be my 49 and the Fury, will be my 50th as I've not missed one. Did you mean the Fury game would be your 49th? It will be Ricki's 49th.

50th home game, $5 tickets, playing NQF who have already finished for the season. Shaping up to be a good afternoon.

Edit: I'm nowhere near 50 home games - only went along from about 1/3 into season 2.

Will be my 47th,Im one of those who dont consider away home games to be home games.

Only games i have missed at Ring of Fire are the 2 exhibition games.Have otherwise attended every A league fixture,pre season cup games and the pre season games in our first season.

LG does that total at ROF include the finals games last season.

missed 1 proper home game with stitches in my mouth and a hole drilled into my jaw

and 1 due to a huge f**k up with work travel plans

and 1/2 a game (I'm ashamed to say) because of a *big* family party

done all the home pre-season friendlies and cup games - edit and both exhibition games -

and I've learnt some valuable lessons from those 3 timing cock-ups!!tigers2011-01-21 20:52:35

Fury last year.  Food poisoning, couldn't be more than 5 minutes from the toilet.  Felt even sh*ttier after Grossman equalised in the last minute.

How's my driving? - Whine here

Bad luck on that HN, Glad it wasn't that bad that it led to more serious consequences. Mind you, I have painted the royal dalton at the stadium twice after sampling their fine fare against my better judgement. Lonegunmen2011-01-21 21:02:28

Not really. I only went to two in season one and could have gone to a couple more this season if I had made more effort.

Have made 5 away matches though

Not including play-offs.

I'm on 40 something probably, missed a game in season 1 for my Mum's birthday, and 1 or 2 each year after that for Christmas/New Year/Summer holidays.

I flagged the second Phoenix in CHCH game last year, but did make the trip there from Akaroa in 2009 for Chris Greenacre's Phoenix debut against the Mainland XI, the single most boring football match I've ever seen.

I've only missed both Christchurch matches - only the first one by choice. But maybe trips to see the Nix play in Auckland, Queenstown, Hamilton, and Masterton (+ Napier if you include the ressies) compensate a bit.

I didn't include Palmerston North because that match didn't actually happen, it was a collective bad dream brought on by a tainted batch of cider. That's my story and I'm sticking with it!

I think ricki has missed more than one? a world cup qualifier? or was that an away game?

I missed the first home game this season, (not by choice), missed the 2 christchurch ones (also not by choice), but apart from that I think I've been to all of them. Not too shabby I guess..

Ricki missed one game, it was when he had to got to South Africa for the finals draw in December 2009. Other than that, he's been there. I know he's been banned from the touchline but I think the only times that has happened were games that were in Aussie.
 
Can Piney confirm this?? Oh and Can he confirm this Weekend really si the 50th Home game and that it includes the finals from last year.

Plus pre season games in season 1 and pre season cup games including final.
