Idea! This Wednesday night game - Everyone whom has one, to wear their Retro Ricki Tee Shirt rather than their nix top in a show of respect. What do you all think?

Proud to have attended the first 175 Consecutive "Home" Wellington Phoenix "A League" Games !!

The Ruf, The Ruf, The Ruf is on Fire!!

I think that's a great idea, LG. I'll wear mine at home as a show of support  :-)

I got a second Tee from the 07, Might wear that as it's in brand new condition.

Being really short notice, I doubt it. Ricki should have given us more notice #SackRicki

I'd be surprised if there aren't a few on here who've had their "Bye Ricki" banners on standby for a while now....

after that interview i can already see the Dom post article in the morning "Jose Mourinho to be next phoenix coach" - Caretaker Chris Greenacre has been quoted as saying "you'll see Jose Mourinho turn up" a strong implication about the next phoenix head coach. you stay classy Dompost. Fantastic interview though well done greenie

That was a good interview from Greenie. Showed a bit of life and personality which is more than what you usually get from Rick. It was a good first up interview and he spoke like a coach beyoud his young years.

Hopefully tomorrow, he is in a suit and not a tracksuit. Be the man Greenie - you have to be.

 So what happens if he sneaks us into the finals then or manages a couple of good results,is that going to be enough for everyone  wanting him to get the job.

Have been not wearing too much club gear recently and pretty much YF Ts from late Jan (someone else posted about not wearing club stuff earlier as well).  No RR - but will see what is clean for tomorrow (Ifill T in the wash from Sunday).

I expect we'll see an unchanged lineup if fenton isnt injured.

thought boyd was good off the bench so would keep him there, just wonder if some players may not be able to back up 2 games in this space of time.. im looking at you ifill

 

Drop Lockhead.........agree with Boyd but would start him ahead of Ifill....he just looks so poor now [ is he still injured ]

Id play Brockie and Housey top of the line, with Gamiero behind.  Muscat and Lia in the middle, and Ifill wide.
