What would you like to see on the site?
I think there was a previous thread like this, in fact I KNOW there
was, but I'm not digging it up, and I think a fresh thread is fair
enough, seeing as its been a while.
I was thinking of stuff that would be cool to have on the
site, so I figured I'd throw it open.
My "ideas"
- Player Profiles (with optional A-League stats)
I figure this may be a job for the official site, but
they haven't even got the time to update their points table for the
Pre-Season Cup, so I thought I'd mention it to someone more
reliable (no offense meant).
- A photo gallery (hey, the ABs have one... but it could
be more personal and fan-based, or a bit
of both...)
...Actually those were the only practical ideas I had. I'm
still holding out for
- A video livestream of games (I'll pay money!)
- Phoenix beer handles
Oh! And can I petition to get Crouchy and Ronaldo replaced
with Smeltz and Daniel?
Yeah. Great ideas. Especially about ditching Crouch and
The Little Winker. It was OK at the start for a laugh - but
we've got our own heroes now. I'd wet my pants even for
delayed video. The NRL puts up free full replays
online within a couple of days after a game
is played, which wins a lot of friends....don't know how
generous the FFA is though....Stevo2007-07-29 03:40:04
I thought of the same thing. lol
About the photo gallery that is, would be cool to ave
one.
Yeah about the gallery/player profiles - I will check with CNUT but
I think we can have something up this week. Just need to find room
on the menu!
Zero chance with video unfortunately though...
If we can't get a video can't we get a play by play live scores
Decent pint pub guide for these long meandering walks to the
Stadium ,starting at the Ed bar in Newtown of course!!
Good ideas lads - I will try and get something whipped up over the
next few days.
If you have some photos for the gallery - send them to adam at
yellowfever.co.nz

I have a whole pile of Phoenix player pics -but most are taken
through their kitchen windows from the tree outside their house. I
might end up in with a restraining order though, and not be able to
go to games. You could maybe use the ones of them taking out their
recycling bin though.
Well we'll just petition the A-league guys. I'm already sending
them threats of bird-flu tainted KFC from China if they don't
comply...;)

Emailed the club regarding player profiles, here is the guts
of their reply - fair enough i reckon, they got a wee bit to do at
the moment
>>>
"Thank you for your email and interest in Wellington Phoenix.
Currently we are working on developing this section. Head shots will be available soon and more information will be added when it is passed by the board.
Keep watching the website.
Thank you for your support and patience." <<<
IMO it makes sense for us to have profiles as well - sounds like ours might be able to a bit more 'quirky' than theirs, and quicker, as im guessing it doesn't need to be passed by any board
Guest reporter invited each week. Independant view from a qualified
spectator. One each game home & away. Suggest we make the
qualification that they are ex Internationals? Then we can comment
on their view.
Melbourne games get Mal Dunford ex captain of NZ
Brisbane games get Greg Brown played for both NZ &
AU
Adelaide ?
Central Coast?
Perth ?
Sydney (bound to be a few there)?
Need a few more contacts in Australia but home games won't be
a problem with plenty of Wgtn based ex All Whites.
Thoughts?

I like this idea. It might be hard to get journo's or
ex-players to write stuff for free though. . . . Parhaps some
of the locals could sumbit a "fans report" on a weekly bassi, like
Paul did for the Sydney FC game? We could have someone different
each week, and draw from the folks here at YF who enjoy writing . .
. . . Or we could just get Paul to do it every week !!

I like Phil's idea better...journoes and ex-players have avenues of expressing their opinions in other media, but YF is at its heart a fan organisation and website. So reports from different local fans (I suppose they wouldn't have to be local, but only to have been to the game) after each game would be cool, and another way of fostering the budding YF comunity. I was going to suggest maybe an alcoholic reward for thos who have their reports posted, but that would exlude our younger members since we don't want to be irresponisble, do we?
perhaps something for the younger generation of footballers? not
neccessarily to contribute to thoughts and opinions expressed in
the forum but if they were hooked into the yellow fever concept
then it may equate to more interest/bums on seats at home
games (eg. mum and dad) thoughts?
I think in a way gorillastyle that is the club's job. That
would mean quite a change in direction for us, could be quite
difficult as well and suddenly the what should they and shouldn't
kids be exposed to argument becomes an issue. Next thing you
know Feverish is in jail and Frankie Mac has fled the country...
fair call mr dean 
Frankie can't flee the country - he would have to fight them off
with his crutches 
Frankie couldnt flee the country, the ankle bracelet would start
buzzing 
Some yellow fever merchandice! Like the baige bragde has.
merchandise - a spandex phoenix one piece, rigor would be proud.
tighter than a carribbean jockstrap 
I would be soooooo keen for that!
good YF screensavers/wallpaper to download please!
