Wellington Phoenix football committee intends to meet this week, where they plan to map out the club's future. They are ruling nothing out.

If Welnix do throw in the towel, like many want, and no-one else does a Terry S to save us at the last minute, and the licence goes to Canberra or Woollongong, I hope you'll all be happy following TeeDubs next summer. (I'll be following the Lilywhites, much classier.)
No seriously: I agree things are sharkhouse and have to change, but putting Welnix in the "designated scapegoat" box is ignorant. Everyone sucks at our club. Top to bottom. Including the Fever. Especially the Fever!
Again, seriously: I repeat my theory of Phoenix Syndrome, where a top-quality player just stops "trying" after a while with us. Current sufferers: WeeMac; Roly; Kosta; perhaps Krishna. This can only be due to a club culture which, perhaps, is inherent in living in Wellington, a city which has prided itself since ages ago into telling ourselves that shark-house things are great (like the weather or the economy).
