Don't get my wrong I had a great time on Sunday it was a great opening but if you had the ear of the organiser's the manager what would you improve on for next time
 
To the Organisers
 
For me, from where I was sat I would move the advertising boards back from the edge of pitch, from certain angles you could not make out the byline - just use the ones they use at the Rugby
 
To the People in Charge of the Video Screen
 
Some replays would have been nice of any goalmouth action and that includes replays of fouls, we know the replays incite the anger of the fans but so what, its a man's games and we all paid our money to be there - and with limited away support it hardly going to promote crowd trouble.
 
To that Muppet on the pitch at Half time for that Inflatable race its Football not Soccer
 
To the Manager
 
Did not get the players name but we really need a right back who can get forward, the right back was the weakest link in the team for me and needs replacing if the team wants to play attacking football on the right side home or away.

They're not allowed to show replays of anything remotely controversial, dunno if it's a FIFA order or not. At one of the old Kingz/Knights (can't remember which) games in Wellington, they had a referee in the Sky control room deciding on what could be shown on the replay screen.

Apparently I'm apathetic, but I couldn't care less.

you're right about the wing backs. I'm not so sure what the plan was there, because there was not a lot of width from the midfield, and you'd thing our fullbacks would go flying up the wings. but specifically to our right back, I agree totally. many times in the second our seciton of the stand were screaming for him to get on his bike and overlap, and then he labours forward! a lot of things to work on, and a lot of things to be happy about.

Guess Fifa? UEFA regulation too.

However who should give a toss about Fifa in this remote island ?

If Rugby can use video ref, why do we have to pretend we are in the stone age ?
Pretty soon FIFA will use video ref soon too.

I hope not. It would slow the game down far to much.
