Rather win a trophy then beating Auckland then not winning a thing, what have we been aiming for in the last 17 years before Auckland came in? beating perth glory to win the distance derby cup? come on man... anaveragestem

Nix have now lost the most cup games to non A league teams (4), and the next most is 2. We also now have the record of having the heaviest loss vs a non a league team in this cup.. A record breaking team! Mainland FC

There is either a massive lack of ambition or a massive lack of competence. The Nix are the biggest losers in the history of the A-League. Something big needs to change.
"The Nix are the biggest losers in the history of the A-League." No, they're not.
Nobody cares about the cup. Like yes it's silverware but that's about it. Even less people care we've lost the most to NPL teams.
I would rather beat AFC 2/3 times this season than win the cup. Hell id rather beat AFC 3/3 times this season than us be premiers.
The only concern I really have about this result is that we're going to lose another 3 times to AFC this season.
Incredibly small time mentality.
How? The Aus cup means so little. I can just imagine what this place would be saying if we did win it. Rather than people saying we've won nothing it would be we've won nothing important...
To this club it is way more important to beat AFC in front of 25-30k screaming fans vs winning the Aus cup in Australia in front of probably less than 10k disinterested Aussies.
That is the reason the owners have put so much emphasis on beating AFC this season. It is that important whether you like it or not.
if you can honestly say that winning the Aus cup means more than besting AFC this season - well i guess its just a difference of opinion then. I can't understand that though. I mean the Aus cup is for the Aussies mostly (plus they hardly seem to care about it until semi finals), the derby with AFC is uniquely kiwi and has more meaning to me.
I won't bite on Perth, everyone here knows that wasn't a true derby. It had some funny moments but AFC can have the distance derby now if they like as they're further away.
