Phoenix City - Farewell

Just as a counterpoint, I am absolutely interested in him having a chat to the lads about the team and any new information at all about the club that we don't get from the outside.

Doesn't have to be hard hitting journalism to make for a great listen, and it's always a greta listen even wihtout guests.

Further to this, has he got some great strategies from playing with Kurto to try distracting him?  i.e does Kurto get easily distracted by star jumps?

How is he so dreamy?

Legitimate question.

New Phoenix captain Steven Taylor drops by the pod to discuss leading the team, preseason under Ufuk Talay and goals for the season. Meanwhile, Team Wellington have joined forces with Olé.

Excellent interviewing Frostie. Top quality podcasting. 

I'm totally pumped for the season now.

Good quality pod guys. Thank you. Steven Taylor is such a positive person, hope that really rubs off on the team he will be leading. Cmon you Nix, starting Wednesday.

That was good but he did sound like he was reciting "talking points" a lot.

Or perhaps I've just heard too many interviews of football players :-)

So jet skiing is allowed under a Phoenix contract?

How about mountain biking? Loads of great mountain biking in Wellington, but also potential for injuries ...

Really emjoyed that pod thanks chaps

Did one of you guys chop him in the leg before he left?

Are you guys recording this week?>

Sorry no record this week, however next week we have Phoenix Head Coach Ufuk Talay joining us on the pod, so keep an ear out for that

In Patrick's final episode before leaving the country, the pod are joined by Phoenix head coach Ufuk Talay, who discusses the FFA Cup loss, recruitment strategies, coaching philosphies and preseason plans.

good luck at University mate.   You will be missed. All the best

Thxs for the Pod guys! And all the best to Patrick!

Patless pods... oh dear

Excellent pod and excellent interview. 

Good luck Pat.  I'll miss you in my ear holes. 

Good Luck Pat. For all the shark you get on here and on twitter and in person (Fudge me you get a lot of shark) you do and have done a lot for the Fever in holding it together through some tough times and bringing some atmosphere while there are a lot of people who do some bloody good work you have been one of the faces that has taken a lot of the negative brunt and the things you have done over the fast few years is truly amazing.

Hats off mate hope you have a good time

Great pod as per guys. Uffie sounds like a top bloke. All the best Patrick, I'm sure you'll be missed! 

Uffie is quite brutal, doesn't sugar coat that all who left, apart from Williams, Krishna and Dura, were not wanted.

A bit Surprised re Mandi tbf I liked him but guess Uffie has plans in other areas.

Not he didnt say he wanted to keep Singh........

Great poddy. Excited for the coming season! No more Party Times with Patty Barnes! Sad. Good luck, Patrick!

Singh wasn't off contract

Good chat team. The more I hear from our new 'strayan overlord, the more I like.

Thanks for all the kind words, please keep them coming to feed my ego. 

Make sure you say hi to this guy.

Haven't you left yet?

I did listen to the pod but seriously missed somehow the section talking about Patrick leaving

Where is he going?

Or can you give me the minute mark where it is discussed

isn't he too old to do an OE?

It'll be uncomfortable to stand barechested with a drum in a London pub in December at 80 minute mark, but hey no excuses.

London is exactly the place you'd be able to get away with that and no one would bother you - that's what is great about the place!

The pubs that would be open that early, doubtful they'd be worried about a bare chested kiwi ?

Patrick, try Younger's Tarten Bitter. Enjoy London. Stay away from Earl's Court. You didn't travel 12,000 miles to meet other New Zealanders. Go meet some locals.

Earls Court, putney, Clapham, probably parts of East London now too. 

be pretty hard pushed to find Kiwi's (or Aussies) in Earls court these days - more likely Acton, Clapham, Leytonstone

be even harder pushed to find Youngers Tartan bitter and even more hard pushed to find anyone that thought it was decent! :-)

Leytonstone. The 2 most grim months of my life for sure.

SheBu is still a very active Kiwi spot

Are you guys recording this week?

New pod from the team:

https://www.podomatic.com/podcasts/thekidsareallwhite/episodes/2019-09-21T02_21_28-07_00

"After a few weeks off, the pod have a lot to catch up on, including Phoenix preseason results, trialists, Danny Hay, and more. Safe to say that many tangential conversations occur."

Things are really slipping with Patrick gone huh!
