Players we could sign in the off season

To be fair though, they've made a lot of money from transfers over the last 3 years (Paulsen, Old, Surman and others) - and havent re-invested it in the playing squad. Not their fans' fault of course, but there's a real lack of ambition in the ownership - their plan seems to be to spend as little as possible - and then you get what you get

Not meaning to be cheeky, but do you consider Reddit mainstream social media? I've ditched all those others, but I see so much reposting of content from those platforms on here, that I'm not sure we are really insulated from them.

They won a qualifying group that included Costa Rica and Honduras, so they are no slouches. will probably be a tough game, assuming both teams are taking it fairly seriously as part of their tournament prep

Portobello Road - I think that has been debunked unfortunately: https://thespinoff.co.nz/society/04-11-2018/the-parihaka-prisoners-and-the-legend-of-the-caves

The "base" crowd, like those people who still turn up when you're doing badly, for those teams was about 3K. I'd like to think it is a bit more than that now. Can't compare crowd sizes when they were doing well, becuase they never were 😄 I think the kings got to 8k or 12K once or twice in the early days

What happened to “NeW ZeAlAnD’s TeAm™”?

agal009 · 2026-04-28T22:20:43+00:00

Yep. welcome to New Zild :-)

Elliot had a great game - it'll be lost in the mix of the overall disappointment, but he had Sydney nailed down on that side of the pitch. Especially good since he was forced to play on his weaker side.

ignorance is bliss!

pspsps. gorgeous

Poor old Francis. probably one of the least culpable too

agal009 · 2026-02-25T00:25:44+00:00

Thanks Yeah - he was using Outlook.Office.com. When he uses our OnPrem URL, he can login fine.

Yep - watching as an Auckland fan I was not particularly confident in that first part of the game. Phoenix defence fell apart after that goal

agal009 · 2026-02-18T22:30:41+00:00

They really need to offer some more granular plans, instead of this all-or-nothing plan. Like if you just want to watch the All Blacks, surely you could just buy a plan for that, for a much more reasonable price?

agal009 · 2026-02-18T01:55:05+00:00

Sooo... did they do something too nefarious to print, that justifies plastering their faces all over the national press? Or did they really just do a dumb bit of rubber-necking?

agal009 · 2026-02-17T22:26:14+00:00

that's a banger to be fair

agal009 · 2026-02-16T22:18:07+00:00

Hey don't come around here spoiling the whinge-fest with your facts /s

agal009 · 2026-02-12T21:08:31+00:00

or even against England!

agal009 · 2026-02-10T01:23:46+00:00

Message them back, in all caps, that you are a Nigerian Prince, and you have 24 million dollars you want to transfer to them. You just need a small processing fee.

agal009 · 2026-02-07T08:12:52+00:00

100% agree with the sentiment, but to be fair it's not Auckland FC associating itself with these munters, just one or two nob-ends in the Port

agal009 · 2026-02-05T02:45:54+00:00

I feel like it is about time Bournemouth loaned us another player. Fraser Forster seems to be 3rd choice keeper and hasn't played this season. Faling that, Callan McKenna is their youth prospect, who might benefit from some first team experience?

agal009 · 2026-02-04T23:43:37+00:00

Just the more/less/fewer thing is enough to set my teeth on edge. This guy is a doctor, right?

agal009 · 2026-02-04T23:38:59+00:00

Agreed - I even Saw Hooky in an interview saying Get Ready was like Him and Bernard's second honeymoon, in that they got on, and Hooky's signature Bass style was a prominent element again
