Mate Friday suits me better as well.


Dear FFA,





�

In regards to the up coming A-League play offs series, it would be much appreciated if the Wellington game could be scheduled for Friday the 30th as myself and C-Diddy both have respective piss trips in mind which can only be made possible if the game is not played on Sunday.

Cheers,

Sunday is not a good day for me.

I want to be able to score afternoon off work friday and have a blinder rather than a 600+ km round trip in the Holden Vectra on the sunday.

Sort it out TopLeft!!!

 
Harden up you limp wristed nancy boy.
 
Sunday game... so:
 
Take MONDAY off work. (And Friday afternoon if you have to). Drive down to Wellington on Saturday (or Friday afternoon if you're really hard). Go large on Saturday night (and Friday if you are committed). Big breakfast at the back bencher on Sunday and then start early. Leer up big time and be the life and soul of the place by the time the other regulars start filtering in. Go to the game on Sunday, and go hard. Go out after the game and paint the town red.
 
Crawl back to Napier on Monday.
 
Simple. Do I have to work everything out?
 
Sheesh!

Incredible stamina. No shame. Yellow Fever.

Hopefully the FFA have a schedule for the finals out by Friday.

It makes sense that they should try to do so.

Only thing I can think of that would stop that is the away team travel (flights, transport, hotels etc). Flying out from Sydney could change a lot of things that we don't think about compared to flying from Melbourne. Shouldn't affect it too much though.

Yes.

Yacht race scheduled to start at 9pm. So if it's blowing 40 B***ards the race might be postponed until Saturday morning, which would mean I can go to the game.
 
Without a postponement I'm stuffed.
 
So BLOW Huey! BLOW!!!

It'll be interesting how they prioriitise things that week. There could well be nrl and super rugby at the same time. I suspect nrl should get delayed,but who knows.

If they cover the game out of Queensland live that probably wont start until 10 so they should be alright.

SS1 - Super Rugby then NRL
SS2 - Phoenix/Breaker then NRL
SS3 Breakers/Phoenix

Possibility of extra time in playoffs matches must scare them though.

More likely to happen in a football match so nix would get SS3 (if they had any brains)

Yep, nowhere to be seen anymore. It either means they jumped the gun in announcing the correct date, or the date has not been confirmed yet.

maybe the guy that got the twitter sack, hacked in?

seems a bit strange, especially since they were adamant it wouldn't be announced till after the final round was complete.

Let me just say, if you have book anything you cannot rebook now, then you're an idiot.

The Aleague finals games are confirmed after the last round has been played.

Phoenix shouldn't have posted that on Twitter, which is why it was removed, because FFA/Aleague may need to change dates last minute for any reason.

Agreed. Unless it was booked after that tweet. From the club is pretty official and you can't blame somebody for acting on an official announcement like that from the club.

Yeah booking for Sunday without being able to change it is dumb.

I was more defending myself getting time off work after the flu announced it was Friday I guess

Looks like friday then. I knew I could sway 'em C-Diddy.

Either way people will be disappointed by the look of things on here. Just don't moan about it because ultimately it comes down to tv and nothing beats the powers of tv.

Fuck this stupid game

Seems a bit peculiar to announce something then immediately have it taken down.  have they announced any other play off games??

My friend is a cameraman who normally does the nix games at RoF and was asked if he was available to work on Sunday the 1st of April. 

Guess we'll all find out on Sunday night.
