That should narrow it down to about five hundred people.

It's sad that people insist on them playing at the Westpac...I'll be there hoping that they do well, but the cake tin is soulless and they'll probably play bad music to try and pretend there is some sort of atmosphere in there....just like at the rugby!!


Where else are they going to play ?

The Basin is stuffed and Newtown barely holds 1000. The Stadium is it.

Get there, bring your singing voice and atmosphere the f**k out of the place.
 
We absolutely MUST demolish the place on Sunday. And we really need to develop a chant that is focussed on putting an end to the garbage stadium PA broadcast music.
 
Hey Feverish - Can someone have a word to the club to make sure that the Venue doesn't blast us with music the whole bloody time? ? ?  MOST importantly we don't want to hear some stupid jingle if anyone scores a goal. That would be a total disaster. . . . . .

Don't even worry bout things like the music just get afew drinks in ya and get ready to help be the best supporters group new zealand has ever seen! The group that can take the piss out of each other on the forum and be all about their own clubs but then come together and and support the Phoenix!

we'll have too much atmosphere for them to need music, we're not watching rugby after all

Judging from past Stadium experiences, I wouldn't be surprised if a good atmosphere encourages them to play even more crap over the PA. for either of the follwoing reasons:
 
1. They think the music makes the atmosphere and they want to keep it going
2. They are jelous/ scared and want to drwon it out
 
As stated by WARZYCHA , we can't garuntee the Stadium Staff won't treat this as a Rugby event, after all whta's the odds they've been exposed to a good football game before?

It would have to be a Johnny Cash tune to start the evening I guess. An oldy but a goody that everyone can sing along to.

Profile pic. Should you be interested. Lakhsen, on the right, lost touch with him.
Mohammed, on the left, I'm still in touch with. He's now living in Agadez, Niger. More focused on his animals now as tourism has dried up. Is active with a co-op promoting local goods, leather work and bijouterie, into Europe.

even though it has been bad enough this morning (weather wise) to cancel all Sunday League games, the weather is starting to clear up and the wind won't be that bad when we're inside the stadium. Finally an A-League team in Welly.....COME ON THE NIX!

Must find a radio station with coverage.  I'll be driving the kids around the North Shore when its on.  Will Radio Live be Radio Useless?  We really need a Stadium radio station that gets streamed.
