I'm about to book my flights down from Auckland for the next home match vs Newcastle. Can anyone confirm what day it's on (for sure) and kickoff time :)?

I have nothing more to say than "Yay!" at this point. I am very happy. AND our baby didn't decide to make it's appearance!

Hope Mrs Mikecj is bearing up okay! Tonight would be an auspicious night for a YF baby to arrive ... good luck!

Sunday, I'm pretty sure it's at 3pm but you'll need to check that.

Great game, so pleased to see Greenie get a goal. Lots of chances for both, end to end action, tension in the shoot out, loved Reddy, it's all good

2 weeks time, same venue, hope for the same result

Would be good to note that there's a week gap before the Newcastle game.

De Jong said during the match, if the Nix win it's on Sunday, can't remember the time he gave though. Probably due to another clash with the Hurricanes.

Wrong Darkhorse, Melbourne beat us in preseason cup at home in a penalty shootout.

I felt a degree of sympathy of McKain, you could see him taking it easy to avoid that second yellow but just went too far in that last one. Good for Siggy though.

Kick off is 4pm.

I hope for a sell out at ROF against Newcastle. Would be the last one at home and fingers crossed if they can do well in that game, that would add as a nice send off for the team.

it defo won't be on the saturday for anyone who's wondering - there's a beer festival on at the stadium that day (rather than a hurricanes clash).

Also want to say, well done Glory fans (if there are any on here) for making the trip over, huge effort to get here. Hard luck about the result.

Things are going our way. The defence was very average.
If one was a netural one could say that Perth was unlucky?

Has anyone got a voice left?? Man what an awesome game, plenty of noise from everywhere in the ground. i just wish they'd turn that friggen stadium music off permanently as I'd like to listen to the fans and saviour the atmosphere not get my ears blasted by an over loud boom box.
 
Proud to be a phoenix fan and the penalties were a nail biter. Reddy was again brilliant!
Proud to have attended the first 175 Consecutive "Home" Wellington Phoenix "A League" Games !!

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

Could perhaps say that, but we have held out and done it tough all season, so good on us for continuing that tonight. A good win I reckon

so who do we bring onto the bench in 2 weeks? Deigo probably, Rojas possibly, Mulligan and Ferrante if it needs a good warming

OMG I'm home now watching the replay to make sure it really happened! 

McKain: heart goes out to you mate, you're a star in my book. 

See you all there on the 7th!  This is why we've been there for the last three years!
