It's not targeted at the fan base but business. Part of the Phoenix mandate is to be the core of a business network.
Because it's a way of getting the message out, there us a huge badge on the ad which says Huawei and Phoenix business FC and talks about chamber of commerce, etc.
What's the bet that if there was an unvailing at a corporate event without the information being sent to the fan base people on here would be complaining that they didn't get an opportunity to attend.
Here was me thinking they had asked me to something when all they really want is me to give them even more money.Wouldnt be so bad but they show buggar all appreciation when you do take part in their promotions. ie Football Fund may not have been the most successful promotion in raising money but a simple thankyou for participating would have been nice but nothing.
They will probably give away more tickets than they sell and just expect some of us tragics to actually hand over some cash.
The $55 tickets aren't aimed at tragics, they are aimed at corporates.
Nothing in the email i got suggests any of that Patrick so maybe that word on the street isnt meant for all. However if that is the case just another case of the club seemingly being unable to engage and get their message across to their fans.

Because if they didn't, people would find out about it and yell 'I wanted to go but no one lets me know, why doesn't the club communicate properly with it's members...' etc...
I am marking this firmly in the club can't win category.
LOL Good to see the defenders for all that is Phoenix are back for another season.Sorry my mistake i forgot they can do no wrong.
Of course they can do wrong. I was a big critic of the excessive home and away games last year for example, even though the northern games are the few games I can get to since i moved up here. It just seems the club can never get anything right in the eyes of some.

Not quite sure how anyone is saying that the club can do no wrong?

If you are classifying some people as defenders for all that is Phoenix, what group do you classify yourself as being in??
Oi Oi Edgecumbe... lets have a clean sheet
I can't wait for some fans to get married and have 2 or 3 kids, then we will see who complains as the wallet straps tighten right up. I think the point trying to be made is the club informing all fans, private and business related, what is going on, when, where, how and who etc. I really want to know how many more games are going to be on the circus. I have to start saving and also planning annual leave for such events. Especially now as Grandchild number 3 has arrived on our doorstep. She'll be a fan in the future along with her brother and sister. Still, tightening up the wallet as I don't want her to miss out.

I didn't think about this at first. I thought they would be unveiling a new signing, or a new kit. But what if their unveiling a new Logo. I would hate it if this happened because I don't see anything wrong with the crest we currently have, and I don't want to see it go...
I still think their unveiling a new kit though, or maybe a new marquee signing in the new kit!

I did read it but 1 or 2 is not an exact figure is it?
Hey team so through all the angst etc. Can i just clarify that the unveiling at wharewaka is free for all fans. Then its followed by a breakfast that you can pay for if you want? - just checking as i skimmed the email saw a cost and disregarded it (this is my fault completely for jumping the gun)

A new logo isn't of use to us, surely. So many more priorities. The social media team would be all over that if we were to change a logo with teasers and all that.

I am thinking along the lines of a new club logo, with Nixie astride Mt Taranaki, possibly with laser eyes
Actually, getting outplayed quite a bit these days

The branding overhaul idea is a pretty good one IMHO, the whole league seems to be doing a branding refresh. With the removal of the badge restrictions we might even be able to return to our original badge or a variation of it before the FFA made us change it.
This talk of rebranding and new logo will annoy me immensely if its true! There's way way way better and more important things to spend the money on....
agree. Get ready to be annoyed. Can visualise the Wellington being in small font

No, it was because all teams logos had to fit within a badge template.
Yes, but it also did look a bit like the Reichsadler.
I will be happy with that as long as it makes us play like Bayern Munich, and if as a result the craft beer price at the stadium comes down to German beer prices. Couple of bucks for a massive tankard of Garage Project, that would be worth a new logo.

Thursday 10 August
Vision and interview opportunity – dawn ceremony and major unveiling
6.50am for ceremony at 7am, sharp (cameras from 6.15am for setup)
The Wharewhaka Function Centre, Wellington Waterfront, 2 Taranaki St, Wellington, 6011
Photos and vision from 7 - 7.30am, brief radio/TV interviews at 7.20am
In attendance: Chairman Rob Morrison, GM David Dome, Head Coach Darije Kalezic, new signing Dario Vidosic, selected players, distinguished guests from the local Iwi and performers
This will be a significant event in the club’s history as it enters its second decade, and is open & free to fans and members of the public.
I caught a little bit of an interview with David Dome on Radio sport this morning. One interesting thing mentioned was we almost signed a player who took one look at Newtown park 2, turned around, and hoped back onto the plane.
That player then went to another A-League club, became a Socceroo, and now is in Germany.
Was that Jaimie Mclaren?
He also said there is the possibility that the A-League will respect some international windows next season.
He also said they told Vinnie Lia the new coaches hadn't been annoucned and therefore the club hadnt made their mind up as to resign him or not and said he was welcome to try other avenues and said that when the new coaches were on board he'd already linked up with ADL. Seemed to deny their was any communication issue which is what Lia has said...
Didn't listen to SST tonight because I was watching the Victory/WSW game but they tweeted out this
