Be fair, I don't think I've ever done that. I do think he should go though lol. My biggest gripe is with the owners #ownersout

What the hell has happened to McGlinchey?

he's been well below his CCM best since moving to the nix. I'd not be unhappy if new coach did not re-sign him.

No way was there more than 2 1/2 thousand. Plenty if empty seats in the only open  stand. Liars liars pants on fires.

Creative accounting by Dome, adding salt into the wound by adding the season ticket holders from Wellington whom paid the cash but didn't make the trip maybe?

You sure that wasn't just the formation the crowd were playing?

It was half as many as were there a month ago. This sort of lie abiut how many showed up really pisses me off. Tell the truth. I hope the sponsors were happy with such a piss poor turnout from Auckkand football fans.

It would be nice to have a Tony P type guy back. Someone who can actually engage with the supporters. I'm not impressed with the Patrick whitewash that we have here on the forums.

I hope what Dome wrote in the program starts with an independent review of his role and decisions this year

Wellington Pheonix Game Giveaway!!! We have been offered a free bus to and from their game this Saturday, 14th April with free entry, to sit on the grass bank (we can move around if there are spare seats).... https://www.facebook.com/BirkenheadUnitedAFC/posts/1659234834165051…

The above was listed on the Birkenhead Utd twitter account on 9th April. That is how you get your crowd numbers up.

Oddly enough, no one took up the challenge on the bank. They were empty. Probably sat in the seating area, there were enough empties available.

... (we can move around if there are spare seats). .... they obviously did because their follow up twitter message a few days later said there were only 20 free tickets left so members must have taken up the offer. Good on them for doing so as it at least builds up numbers but it makes you wonder just how many tickets are actually being sold.

I actually thought it was about 4000, so the metric doesn't surprise me. The ones that were there would have had a great time and be sure to come back next time.

I went downtown to watch the CCM slaughter at the Fox, then stayed night in Auckland. Man you racked up some driving! Oh well, bring on next season!!

2,500 max at a push mate. So many empty seats not funny. Car park was half as full as at the last game a month ago. No way we're Aucklanders going to walk to a stadium in that atrocious weather either.
