Phoenix significant announcement

Media are invited to attend a media conference at Coene’s (formerly Royal Port Nicholson Yacht Club), 103 Oriental Bay Parade, at 2pm on Thursday March 5 when the club will make a significant announcement.

Those intending to attend should email Media Manager Russell Gray on russellg@wellingtonphoenix.com.

Crikey!

As a member of RPNYC I am startled to learn that the club has gone out of existence! 

Coene's Provisions is UPSTAIRS (Formerly Martin Bosley's Seafood Restaurant). 

The yacht club, and wardroom, is still very much there. The staff of Coene's Provisions are potentially going to staff the Wardroom bar and kitchen, but the yacht club is not "formerly" at all.

My money is on we get a license extension so, seeing the promise, a Russian Oligarch buys the team and uses their wealth to extend Merrick's contract and buy a new 15k seater stadium with all the trimmings.

And gets us a friendly against Real Madrid, and creates a W League team

I have heard a whisper that the club are so impressed with Jeff attending the away game win, they are keen to fly him to the rest the games this season. And that they have introduced a travel ban to Patrick and Brandon whom they never ever want to see at another away game......Ever!

In reality, perhaps the club are going to put in a submission to permanently move to the Hutt Rec...including the Bellevue off the Hospice? Club administration to be working from the garden bar.

Russian Oligarch seems possible, they all have to move their money out of the country and need to invest for a fast tracked citizenship. New food option: caviar and borscht.

Maybe North Korea, Gareth has good contacts and thought it's a flash. Halftime show will be 5000 Nixie kids dancing and marching in sync. We can't have evening games, because Kim Jon Un thinks lighting is overrated.

Nah our fans are way too shark / drunk to get the choreography right. That would anger our beloved leader-god. I think we stick with the Oligarch where possible.

Other clubs have come together and promised that they will no longer try to hack/injure/kill, Roy, Burnsaldino & WeeMac like Serie A defenders did to Van Basten. 

They will also self regulate and call penalties against themselves (seeing as others seldom do) when they wipe out one of those guys as previously mentioned in the penalty area.

Actually I just walked past the ASB on Lambton Quay and their signs have been changed to ABS. I'd guess that major sporting entity they referred to is the national eggball team
