R13 v Adelaide United | Sun 1st Jan | 7:35pm | Kids Go Free
Finally back home and on the new turf, be interesting to see what it's like (can be worst than Suncorp). Smeltz still out as international window opens on the 4th
This is going to feel like an away trip of the travelling circus.
The Ruf, The Ruf, The Ruf is on Fire!!

You're missing the point of it being a "Travelling Circus Thread". It's name alone indicates that it can move all over the place!!

Patrick478 Are there any plans for the big banner to be used for this game?

With 4 games coming up over the next 3 weeks, I hope we can get a bit of momentum, with some strong performances, building crowd numbers & getting the Fever Zone back to full voice to give the lads the lift they should have when playing at home.

What is the likely state of the new turf? Bit loose underfoot, or not?
Kotahitanga. We are one.

So many broken records.
I hear you P R M, record lowest Hamilton crowd, Record Lowest Auckland Crowd !
Lets try to get a semi decent crowd of 7000 for this game & build on that so that we can average 9000 for January.
I'm going to go to Ticketek tomorrow to get some kids tickets printed out. If people are given a physical ticket, they are more likely to go. I shall also buy an adult "Hatrick" ticket to giveaway with 3 kids tickets to someone who wouldn't usually go to the game, but watches on TV. If 250 of us did this we could get an extra 1000 people along on the 1st & hopefully a fair few will bring their kids for the other January games!

Estimations on the crowd? My optimistic guess is 11,500 with kids coming in for free and the first match in Wellington in ages.

My optimistic guess is 8k, realistic guess is 6k.
Yellow Fever - Misery loves company
I think Patrick's call of 6000 is about right , but with a bit of a push we can get another 1000 along, but I hope I am proved wrong!

Hope Watson comes in for Gui.
Is Gui injured/suspended or do you just think Watson would be better?
I can't wait for this game. Hoping for beautiful weather, a decent crowd and of course 3 big fat points!
I'm Phoenix for all eternity, this life and beyond. COYN

4 games in a month not sure i am able to come down for all of them, being newly unemployed means cash is a bit tight at the moment.

cheers, we knew it was going to happen about 6 months ago and we asked the boss to please make us redundant a month before christmas or a month after, but him he does it the week before christmas.
People like Coldplay and voted for the Nazis. You can't trust people.
I say take a bow Mark Bosnich for saying what many in the Yellow Fever will not have the decency to admit, let alone accept
They've obviously never actually read anything posted here.
i'm only working in the school term but i was lucky and got the hat trick as a xmas present

Ernie left A-Rod off the team quite a bit - was it just the injury thing?
Actually, getting outplayed quite a bit these days

Sounds like someone who has spent 4 years reporting the scores of local club football suddenly being asked to do an opinion piece, yuh know, with a bit of colour:
"romantic notions" "litmus test" "correctly surmised"(used with a direct quote) "red herrings" "ram a gobstopper in the mouth" "go for the jugular" "make up the numbers" "coalface" "diatribe" "blatant fouls" "yawning gaps" "soldiering on" "country-mile" "Struck a sensitive nerve" "take a bow"
Did they get "Writing Like Chris Rattue for Dummies" for Christmas? They might have used his full bag of tricks in one article!
