Seems Hiroshi Miyazawa is heading there as assistant, and they’re looking to bring some Kiwis over

Sheridan had 35 minutes after Leigh Griffiths got injured for Dundee in 2-1 win vs Aberdeen, 1-0 up when came on. Got booked for time wasting. Not a huge impact, but held ball up ok and some good headers won.

Dundee up against Hearts next. Charlie Adam vs Devlin could get firey.

Another 90 for Devlin in a draw against Rangers (Hearts with a late equaliser). By all accounts he was his usual annoying self. Player rating of 8 so one of the best on the park for either side.

With Macarthur needing a starting Keeper, Kurto's name has been thrown around a bit. It is unlikely given he is back in Poland, as someone tweeted this picture



Start of the Polish Nix Supporters club?

I wonder if he'll make it into the country before the first game of the season?

If he arrives after Nov 1 to Sydney, he doesn’t he to quarantine as long as he’s vaccinated

Confirmed. They have officially signed him.

All Birds looking to IPO at a $US 2 billion valuation, wonder how much Tim Brown owns.

Never made a profit apparently and like a lot of growth minded companies aren't focusing on becoming profitable yet.
After the IPO they are now valued at NZ$5.7billion. Brown owns around 11% of the company so his share his worth around $650million. Absolutely insane.

If this article is to be believed, then Timmy is now the third richest current or ex-footballer in the world. Sitting above CR7 and Messi. 
Completely insane.

could even claim second spot behind Flamini, if you took out family wealth, Timmy and Flamini are wealthy because of businesses they own not being the son of the Sultan of Brunei.

Imagine if he wanted to put some of that money back into the Nix. Instantly the financial powerhouse of the A-League.

Dreams are free of course 😓

I'd happily back a name change to the Wellington AllBirds. Make the CFG put their money where their mouth is

 If that's actually correct (I have a big hunch its not), he could buy out the current Nix ownership and make us Bling FC!

 That's a shame. Hope he gets back on his feet soon and doesn't have any long lasting issues

It is correct (well, $450 million at the current stock price).

90 minutes and a yellow for Devlin in a 2-0 win over St Mirren. Won a foul in injury time that saw a St Mirren player get his second yellow.

ex-CCM, City and Newcastle's Matt Millar on the bench for St Mirren.

Former nix young player, Walter Scott, played full 120 minutes for APIA Leidchardt in their ffa cup win and got an assist. A shame really, I think if Cacace wasn’t there at the time, he might get more game time, promising young talent. I am sure he will get another A League contract soon.

Roy Krishna's international accolades just seem to grow and grow:
He gets some of the most prominent coverage in prestigious World Soccer magazine's Autumn special edition devoted to the "500 Most Important Players on the Planet" (note this is defined as the players most influential in their league, country or part of the world, not just the best players in the world).
Roy Krishna gets a whole page (page 48) with a nice big head and shoulders match photo of him in a Phoenix shirt.
Most players in the 500 only get a small paragraph of a couple of sentences with a small photo. Chris Wood is the only Kiwi featured and gets the standard paragraph (p. 70)
Even Lionel Messi only gets three-quarters of a page - less than Krishna gets!
