KiwiJag Posted June 20, 2010 Report Share Posted June 20, 2010 To all of us in NZ, we talked about this earlier in the year but now that I see the schedule is out I thought I'd put the word out. First home game at Westpac is Friday the 13th (hmm) August. I'm definitely keen so if we can all make it there we must meet up before the game for that sherry, or whatever you're into Who's in?

Kapiti Jag Posted June 20, 2010 Report Share Posted June 20, 2010 I should be able to make that, also hoping to get tickets for the Boca Juniors game (public sale on Wednesday I believe). Will we coordinate ticket buying? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiwiJag Posted June 21, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2010 I should be able to make that, also hoping to get tickets for the Boca Juniors game (public sale on Wednesday I believe). Will we coordinate ticket buying? Boca! Of course! I forgot about that! Um so we're actually quite keen to go to that one instead... probably can't make both and this one suits us much better (Mrs won't need to get time off work) plus there are a few hotels in Welly doing "Phoenix vs Boca specials" which makes it's pretty good value. Tickets on sale Wednesday you say, shouldn't have too much trouble getting tickets if we get in early ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NZ Jag Posted June 23, 2010 Report Share Posted June 23, 2010 Unfortunately, due to other commitments, I won't be at either of those games, but I'm usually good for at least 4 or 5 a season so I'll hopefully catch up with you guys later in the season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KiwiJag Posted June 29, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2010 Mean. Though unfortunately I only just read your post now... So I'll be getting my tickets at 9am Hopefully anyway - if it's anything like the LA Galaxy game, sold out pretty quick did it not ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kapiti Jag Posted June 30, 2010 Report Share Posted June 30, 2010 I've no idea about the LA Galaxy game - I wasn't here then, but I don't imagine it'll completely sell out (although there's always the All Whites Effect). Got my Boca tix in the post this morning. I'm also heading down to the Phoenix Open Day this Sunday to catch up with the returning All Whites, my son is very keen to meet Mark Paston (he seems to be fixated on goalies, he was a big Kenny Arthur and Johnny Tuffey fan!) Let me know if you get tickets and we can arrange to meet up somewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kapiti Jag Posted July 6, 2010 Report Share Posted July 6, 2010 I've plonked some from the Phoenix Open Day, with some of the All Whites, on Flickr in case anyone is interested. http://www.flickr.com/photos/stefrobb/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kapiti Jag Posted July 24, 2010 Report Share Posted July 24, 2010 Well, the Phoenix ran out 2-1 winners, but scored all 3 goals! Boca were far from impressive, and slow to start (as were the Phoenix). The game picked up in the second half, with the 'nix looking more confident and comfortable, especially when sitting on a 2-0 lead. There was some nice, crisp passing moves. Boca, on the other hand, seemed to get more frustrated and started picking up cards, not the least for diving, resulting in a second yellow and subsequent red for team captain Christian Cellay. Phoenix scored through débutante Dylan McAlister and two (one for each team) for 'nix captain Andrew Durante. Overall a good showing on a chilly Wellington night. Plenty of photos at http://www.flickr.com/photos/stefrobb/sets/72157624443330967/ some of them quite blurry, but then you're pretty far away from the action at the Westpac! Don't forget to check out the crazies with their tops off - I hear they got the idea from a certain game in Dingwall... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
