Went looking for some Knights and Phoenix highlights with Gao Leilei and found the Knights ripping up and Reddy howlers...

Awesome memories there Martin. Jonas Salley my favourite, but fond of Emblen, Jonny Tambouras. The Kiwis boys all playing well, Paston terrific, Buncy, Noah,
Nice corner delivery from LG too.

Ha- yeah I watched the Kings when they were on Prime and was a fan of Aaron Silva, Winton and Harry then...but didn't really watch any Knights. Went to one game after they scored a goal! and in that game Salley broke his leg or something and they looked fairly poor, Jonti Richter ran around fairly ineffectively...
Didn't even realise that Emblen had played up front- watched him at the back for Waitak, and heard that he'd been an attacking midfielder in the EPL...
Yeh Gao's delivery seemed decent, but I haven't been able to find any footage of him beating players. I think of him a little like Dani Sanchez, before he lost his mojo, except a little quicker feet.
Must have been '06 I went to the Knights.

Incredible stamina. No shame. Yellow Fever.
Phoenix fans. We have to win them over one fan at a time.

lucky head-bandage!
Wow- the Knights were rubbish weren't they? Ricki won as many games in the 5 he managed as under all the previous managers combined.

Isn't he over in Canada serving as the national side's goalkeeping coach? Before that, he was a teacher at Auckland Grammar School (teaching economics, maybe?) and coached the 1st XI for a year or two back in 2009/10.
