DAD: "It means YOU and I pay to go in, but your sister and mother get in for free"

SON: "So gender equality isn't very fair then and is a very bad thing, we should do something about that!"

So is this actually legit? Only reason I ask is if my girlfriend comes with me, how do I get a ticket for her?

It doesn't seem very gender equal to be giving girls and women away free at the gate...

People like Coldplay and voted for the Nazis. You can't trust people.

I have no problem with them giving away free tickets to women it's no different than giving them to kids or the refugees. As for the Gender Equal on the picture that is the name of an organisation that is sponsoring/supporting the initiative is all. https://genderequal.nz/

I'm positive things will go wrong.

With weather like that forecast for Saturday night, I reckon the Auckland based fans should evacuate town to Wellington for the weekend.

Just remember it's free ONLY to the first 1,000. So either be in early or run the risk.

I do not think Adelaide players are familiar with the concept of rain, we might be in with a chance to catch them off guard!

For us as an own goal would be acceptable.

Lia at Adelaide is better than both at the moment, Lia at Nix was not.

Maybe I'm an idiot and missing something obvious, but how exactly do I get the 20% discount as a member for buying additional tickets?


Alternatively, can my friend just identify as a woman? :D

So if I take my partner does she go straight through the gate or is there a special free ticket to pick up before the gate?

You show your season ticket to the people at the ticketek ticketing booth and then have an argument about how you're entitled to 20% discount. You will eventually get it once the right people get involved.

I think there is a special ticket pick up area which is supposed to be signposted.

They just looked at me like I was stupid last year until we gave up.

I emailed the Phoenix with the same question and they told me to use the code ‘Member18’ when purchasing tickets on the internet or over the phone.

I haven’t tried it yet so not sure if it works.

I really hope the boys are up for it today. At home against a mid table team. Hope to see us score a couple of goals to get our campaign/ confidence back on track.

Krishna to score and become leading goal scorer at the club.

Burns to score to celebrate his new child and thus turn his fortunes/confidence around.

Looking forward to it.

I think the bottom line today is a goal. No goals scored in 3 games is poor, and we haven't looked like we can make any chances either. A win would be fantastic because adelaide are a very decent side, but I'd be pretty happy with a score draw. Another goal less loss will be a nightmare
