I'm not crying out, anyone can start a chant so the fact that there are Phoenix supporters and players makes it natural.

Sorry, I understand ya now. So it is up to those supporter groups from the premiership teams to get involved aswell.

Based on the "Waisake Naholo" chants, at least Southern United were represented.

Yeah that was a bit weird. But at least it was noise, and it meant people got involved - even if they were confused as to what sport they were watching.

Chants were okay but they are just rehashed Phoenix chants to make it easy for the Wellington crowd which didn't work as well for the NT. When I first went to a Nix game I didn't know what the hell they were singing and I suppose people never got the song sheet memo. I was near the front of the Zone and it felt like the small group around me was the only one into it while a few rows back it was nothing. The Oh New Zealand chant needs to go I'm sorry, just too damn awkward to roll off the tongue but hey what do I know. I was hoping there would be some Auckland City FC chants in there or others from the premiership to contribute for a diverse NT chant sheet, maybe next time. 

It was top effort from all in the zone I wish these games happen more often.

Well to be fair there are Phoenix players on the pitch and it was played in the Phoenix home stadium.

Next time there's a world cup qualification match at Kiwitea St feel free to use acfc chants.

Well to be fair it is the White Noise supporters club is it not? I thought it should be a bit more reflective on the football landscape but whatevs. I had fun yesterday but a bit of gentle feedback shouldn't make you cry now should it.

We didn't even use a whole bunch of chants we do at the Phoenix, we had to keep things really really simple due to the expanded crowd side.

I loved doing some of the version of ACFC chants up in Auckland at the New Caledonia game, which was possible because those of us who didn't know them could pick them up quickly.

If they wanna chant Waisake Naholo go do it at a All Blacks game and then maybe they'll create a smidgen of atmosphere

Could have done the Clayton chant but we're a bit under-repped these days in the NT.
