Do we have a chant for Davila? I know he might not be playing this week but maybe do a chant at some point during the game to show our appreciation for him this season? Not sure if this works but we could use the Santa carzorla Arsenal chant and replace it with Uli Davila
And while I'm here, I'm anti-clapping Dura during the game. Especially in the 22nd minute.
If he gets subbed off in second half stoppage time and the Nix are winning, then maybe it's different. But otherwise I will be waiting until he walks down the tunnel after the game and I will give him an ovation.
Yo, Cantab fan here! I normally make it up for one or two games a season but this is the first I've got myself a ticket in active support, will probably head along to the 6 pubs too. Keen to get stuck in and make a day of it given the occasion! Is there anything I need to know for active support? Chants to memorise?
Bought a mobile ticket on day of general release and it said at the time: "Please note: Tickets are currently on suppression and will be sent mid May. "
Still haven't been sent mine yet, have people been getting tickets, or should I be following up?
If you bought tickets with text pick-up, you should have received texts on that same day with links embedded in them. The links weren't active at the time of purchase, but are now, so just go back to those texts.
Didn't get a text at the time (have checked the number in the confirmation email and it was correct). It's all good, will give ticketek a call tomorrow, assume there was a glitch at my end, sure it will be fine.
Yes indeed in general announcements is the post but see below
We're back.
The Phoenix are finally in town on May 22, and the Fever are celebrating in the only way we could think of, by hosting our first ever 6 Pubs of Payne! We've missed hanging out with everyone in real life, and since last years 12 Pubs never happened, we've lined up the next best thing!
We'll kick off the day at Rosie's Red Hot Cantina for a taco and a frozen margarita, and make a few stops before we reach our old friends at the Backbencher. After the game, join us down at Four Kings for our post-match celebration, complete with drink specials such as $12 jugs of Macs Gold and the other A-League matches on the big screens.
Full schedule:
11.30am - Rosie's Red-Hot Cantina 12.30pm - The Featherston 1.00pm - The Old Bailey 1.30pm - The Backbencher 3.30pm - Head to Wellington Phoenix vs Western United at Sky Stadium 6.30pm - Four Kings Late - Danger Danger
Grab your mates, join us at all 6 Pubs (or just the Bencher if you've got a 12.30pm kickoff in your own football match), and celebrate the greatest team in the world returning to the Ring of Fire.
Also from personal experience if you need a feed at Rosie's to prep yourself for the day (and I highly recommend it cause drink responsibly people) Monster nacho's are worth every penny. Came highly recommended by P Barnes who said something along the lines of "OMG the Monster Taco is amazing you need to get it, get it". Side note it is not a "Monster Taco" but a Monster Nacho's however after a heated debate between 7 people we majority agreed it should be renamed the Monster Taco as it is Nachos served in a Monster Taco shell.

Do they do a Fish taco?
Check the menu online otherwise Mermaid's is around the corner
Oooh is that the seafood restaurant where you get to choose your meal from the tank?

I think so, the only thing I remember from there was the beers were average and well over priced. 10/10 do not recommend going there for a beer with the boys.

“In response to the tensions currently occurring in the Middle East, the Wellington Phoenix respectfully request that fans refrain from bringing national flags to either of its two homes games in New Zealand in May,” the club said in a statement.
“Only New Zealand and Australian national flags will be permitted to be displayed at either Sky Stadium on Saturday 22 May or Eden Park on Sunday 30 May.
"Put your clock back for the winter She asks when I'll be home again? If I could see those eyes I know they'd cut me down to size You're not here, when I need you"
🎶Sing your hearts out for the Phoenix We're so glad you're home again Wellington's Pride The fever's always on your side We are all here, when you need us🎶
Minor panic this morning. I couldnt find my scarf anywhere!
Was fearing the worst then I spotted it in the kids dress up box of all places! Will be having words with them tonight about the importance of a football scarf!!!
I even posted on LinkedIn to try and get people to the game...I'm taking my whole family and disowned my brother-in-law who's not coming with his...Come on Wellington, we can do 20k!
Over 20k? YES please. I hope the weather helps us out too. Quick chat with Ben Waine, so glad he's signed on for a while yet. Appreciates the support he gets from fans. With such a refreshing and cheerfulness to his game, he has potential to be a fan very favourite.
