Given the success and fun of fever friday, I reckon the one item
that has to be packed for the upcoming holidays is your
retro-Ricki
this has to be the best way to spread the Phoenix's fame far and wide this summer
and a great chance to start up a football conversation with fellow Phoenix fans in far away places (like Timaru or Pokeno)
give it a go , I reckon!!
and expect a friendly "who are ya?" while you're waiting for your fish n chips, or popping the top of a stubbie

You know that a 2nd one means you never have to wear any other shirt all holiday.
If I ever get around to buying a ticket I'll be Retro-Ricki-ing at the Big Day Out.

I'm going on two church camps in the North Island and I am definitely bringing my retro-ricki with me.
Hopefully I'll find other people with retro-ricki's so I can start Phoenix conversations with them.loyalgunner2007-12-10 22:52:33

make it bearable

I wear my Ricki Retro in Perth with great pride, It caught the eye of Tony P when the Phoenix were over here.He called me over to talk and introduced me to both Herbert and Terry. It was a honor to be able to thank the person who created a football team and saved Football in NZ from disappearing into the wilderness.

I reckon that's the best Retro Ricki story so far this year!
and unless someone gets asked"what's all the fuss about?" by Elvis, then it'll take a bit of topping

Impressive Tinmen. I hope they asked if they could have their
photo taken with you. Support from so far away deserves some
recognition.

No they didn't but Tim Brown gave me two tickets to the game.
Johnson and Old introduced themselves to me, the others
that were having their breakfast kept to themselves.
Though the meeting only lasted about 15 mintues it is
something I will remeber for a long time.
Tim Brown did sign his autograph for my daugther she was rapt
for that to happen.
It was a fantastic game as it was the first time that a kiwi
side had won in Perth, the funny thing was Ricki said that would
win.
There was one guy in a Phoenix top, hat and scarf sitting by
himself and a group that had travelled from Wellington to watch the
game. They were very entertaining.
I do wear the Retro Ricki T Shirt with great pride and I'm
very proud to be a supporter of the Wellington
Phoenix.
If I'm not working on the Saturday I go onto the net and
listen to the Phoenix hour, I have tried to ring them but
unfortunately the connection goes through to Auckland and they tell
me that they can't transfer the call??
So to all you members of the YF thanks heaps for keeping me
posted with all th the Phoenix information. One day I will get back
home and watch a game at the ring of fire.

Might see the two of you there myself - I'm spending xmas with my family in Papamoa.
Perhaps we should all get together on the 30th to watch the away match at Newcastle, along with anyone else around at the time? Watching it at home on my parents telly isn't the same without other Feverites to cheer and swear with

Mate, thats a awesome idea. My cousins have a beach house in
Papamoa, so I can stay there.
I'm staying in the hotel on the corner next to the hot pools, the one under the twin towers.
Sounds like a plan.

Would that be Usual Suspects? (that was always "the bar that serves good pizza" when I last lived there) I know a bartender there - us and our connections eh? If it's the one, I can drop her a txt or something

Well you two seem to have things sorted. I just look forward to watching the match with fellow Feverites for a change.

years.

Mount Mellick might put the game on for you. They did for us over
Labour weekend (not quite as busy, I know), but we had to compete
with the DJ downstairs on the saturday night.

Maunganui road, should be somewhat close to your hotel.
I'll make a thread closer to the time along the lines of "Fever at the Mount" or something, we can sort it out then and grab contact details etc
