I cannot wait to see how many turn up at Eden Park. They'll then realise that fans 'on the road' don't want to watch crap either.


And... what do you think a poor crowd at Eden would make Welnix do? Seriously. This is a question. What do you actually think Welnix will do if the bottom falls out of the crowds? Do you really think they'll and half the team and bring in a bunch of marquees? Or do you think they'd just shrug and give up the licence?


I doubt they'd do the latter at this stage. As I say, they might realise this 'strategy' they have for pulling more income from taking the team on the road will not work if said team is crap. And yes, I hope they'd make some improvements.

As for your previous post, how can you possibly know that would happen? For me, assistants play a big role too so I'd be tempted not to keep Greenacre on either (at least not as assistant manager).

Oh great plan. Sack both the coach and the assistant, with no viable option for a replacement. That will really go down well with the dressing room (especially since they have all said that they respect Greenie).


When was the last time you heard a team criticise the management in public? Just because they say that doesn't mean it's true. 

Again I ask how you know there is no viable replacement option? Have we advertised the job already and I missed it? What are you honestly basing this on? The fact that you, a fan, cannot think of anyone?
