Aye aye Iffy Iffy aye

I"m sure he's just happy to have other clubs wanting him.

He's only just got here, I'm sure his other half won't wanna up and move again after just getting here...plus it'd be unsettling for his young. too many things that would outway moving.

did someone say he loves rugby?? wonder what hes doing in the off-season? could surely make a decent winger with his pace and bulk :D

anyone know his email address ??

we should find it and send him some love.

you can check here for that kinda info

he's class and got talent. but if another club is offering his services and he goes..then thats life! that's the way transfers work. I hope he doesnt go but he's gota make a living for his family..May be if our team starts winning more...may be if we get bigger crowds to home games, maybe if the fricken sun started showing its face and giving nice whether then he'll stay longer. who knows..only paul does..lol 

If he was motivated only by money or perceived standard of the league, he wouldn't have signed for us.

 

I'm not convinced that a guy who has moved to NZ from the championship when he had other offers there is going to be motivated to play in the ACL or t win the A-League.  This is a lifestyle move for him and if he enjoys the lifestyle and his football there would be no reason why he'd leave I'd have thought?

This, this and lots of this.

Imo, you only have to look at his club record. He has only been with 3 other clubs - Millwall, Sheffield United and Crystal Palace. He has stayed at each club for at least 2 years - 7 years in the case of Millwall. If he likes Wellington, he will stay - I have no doubt. If it was about money he definately wouldn't of come here in the first place. It's a bit like Daniel - if it was all about money for him also he would be in Qatar right now.

On his latest blog Paul says:

I�m feeling very positive about things at the moment 

Also, just a quick note to say congratulations to Leo, Manny, Andrew and Vinny on securing new long term contracts.  It is vital that the club get in early to tie down their best players and all of the above come into that group.  Hopefully a few more will follow shortly because I believe we have a squad capable of really achieving something sooner rather than later.

All sounds quite positive to me - just a little push to the club about "get in early to tie down their best players" as we all know as well as he does that he is probably our best player at the mo!

I hope Magnum stays 

From an article on stuff....

"It's nice to be linked with different clubs, because it shows that you're doing the right things on the pitch for your club," he said yesterday. "But I can't be happier at the moment. It's a great place to live and the boys here are a special bunch."

The Phoenix were in "pole position" for his signature. Though discussions were at an early stage, he was not looking to go elsewhere.

"As long as the terms are right, I can't see anything changing," Ifill said.

"Personally I'd rather get my future sorted out soon. If I'm going to stay, then I want it to be for a couple of years and make it home."

Ifill's girlfriend, Elle, and their three-year-old daughter, Romy, had settled well, which was a major factor.

"My girlfriend doesn't want to go anywhere. If I was to have to move it would be hard work getting her to leave � I'd have to go on my own I think," Ifill laughed.

its sounding all positive. Lets just hgope his terms arent too high. He probably realises that hes worth quite a bit so will wan to see more dollars I reckon. Why not splash out for him so that his other mates from England want to come down too.

They can hover all they want. Just let them try landing!!! 

The guy is happy, no need to worry. He's happy, we're happy, Phoenix progress. what tricks and techniques are the younger players learning from him? His professional attitude must be a positive on the others. Any youngster playing college or sat am football have someone to look up to.

i think one of the terms is some more $$$$$ but Terry will surely be able to sort that out.

 

thats life scooby, u cant blame a man for wanting to better himself financially the answer is for the phoenix to pay more but until we get 5o,000 crowds its not going to happen

On the money,Tigers. We want you and your family to stay, Paul Ifill.
We know gold when we've got it. Hoping Terry and Tony can come up with a deal that makes it worthwhile.

So who is making the 'We love you ifill' banner on Wed Night?

Having learn't from previous... how about "we luff ewes Elle & Romy"

Sounds like he is settled and wants to stay.

also sounds like his gf doesn't want to leave, played an interview on zb with ifill. He's really settled here doesn't sound like he wants to go...apparently more than 5 other a-league clubs are after him - CCM is one, but over half the league want one of our guys.

any chance you can get that audio file ?

Have you seen the weather here lately? Rain and I swear hail, the next sunny and nice, it's bloody stupid weather, you don't know how it's going to be from one minute to the next. Baywatch or Godzilla Vs Hedorah? FFS

I say if Ricki can sort out the weather and make sure we keep scoring goals we may have a chance of keeping Ifill.

sorry obviously it was me talking sh*te and not the wife's login. Vickmeist has no idea about Godzilla films.

From the interview, I would say he will look to improve his deal, but I wouldn't think it would be outrageous demands.

If your happy and you know it clap your hands.

You're

Marquee is the way to go for me..forget Fred and nail Ifill down.  I think he wil feel loyalty to the Nix anyway as he got hsi chane thru us in this e for their spring /summer.  Sounds like $$$$ wil be sorted somehow but if cap is an issue then marquee.

I can't find the audio link, can someone post it please ?
