Just wondering where the logic is in a big game in Auckland getting more profit?

Galaxy came to Wellington and we got 31,000 (Can't find figures, what crowd was there in Auck? Yes was against a lesser team, still)

All Whites vs Bahrain in Wellington was sold out.

Boca Juniors was disappointing 11k (But not sure people knew the club)

Surely if the Phoenix are playing a Prem team in New Zealand you would put the game in Wellington, guaranteed a sell out right? Not really sure if you would get much more than 34k in Auckland?

Would be a serious kick in the teeth to the fans that turn up week after week.
