A statement from Football Federation Australia (FFA) chief executive David Gallop said he and FFA chairman Frank Lowy had met with Phoenix chairman Rob Morrison on Monday.
It said Gallop hoped the club would be able to return, following the meeting, with "firm proposals" in the near future on developing a stronger fan appetite for the Phoenix team.
"There are on-going discussions with New Zealand broadcasters, which the Phoenix have agreed to continue, while the need to expand interest in and the identity of the club across all of New Zealand not just Wellington was also raised," the statement read.
Not sure I like the last bit about a New Zealand identity, but if that's what the FFA say we need to do to survive....
Personally I think the touring roadshow/NZ Phoenix idea isn't sustainable.
