On OneNews' sport section tonight. Good press


Excellent press. On tv3 too which was ok and on the crowd goes wild too. Hes waiting for his internet connection, asking can the company please hurry up!

Yeah I was surprised (pleasantly) to see it on 3 news.  Although, in fairness, they're not usually too slow with Nix news, but it was still good to see, especially since it wasn't after a game.  RNZ however, especially their online content completely ignores them.  Club are definitely trying. 

I write once every season to RNZ to formally complain about their cargo cult mentality / bias / in ignoring A-League (despite many Kiwis playing there and not just for the Nix) in favour of faithful reporting of EPL which in some RNZ sport editor's mind is the only definition of football that is allowed on RNZ unless it is an AW game.  They comment on Chris Wood which is fair enough, but why would say Kosta not merit a mention, let alone the whole Nix team (they do report the Nix game results in news bulletins).
