[Always Offside]

Damn ! I'll have to arrange this with my minister for finance (who also holds the portfolio for travel & tourism and recreational affairs amongst others)

Man, I hope they come to Auckland as well.

Man, I hope they come to Auckland as well.

Hear hear.

Saw them in Auckland about 35 - 40 years ago. Newmarket Park - long since defunct.

Never even heard of Newmarket park, lol, how long ago was that demolished?

They'd get a better game from the Roar...


And of course I could go too!

Oooh the dilemma, a 15 hour drive or a grand for the flights.

Or watch it on SBS.

Greatest city on earth in my opinion. Would give anything to live there.

Enjoy, all that are going.

 

[Crash]

I'm hoping I can travel down from Brisbane... Trouble is I'd already been down to Sydney the week before. Not sure how my wife will feel about that

 

[spurs-r-us]

Going to be my first ever time watching Spurs.

Everywhere we go...

The first thing any football fan should know Is his/her history.

Indeed, Friends of Football NZ are about to hold an event there soon commemorating the former national football stadium based in Auckland.

Was/is Del Piero on their books? One of my favourite players of all time.

 

[cockerel downunder]

Woohoo!

Anyone know if there will be a spurs section or just all mixed?

 

[cockerel downunder]

Btw tickets on sale tomorrow for Sydney FC members and Wed for general public... No idea how likely it is to sell out though. Capacity is 90k I think...

 

[Spurfect]

Match tickets booked, now to book flight from Adelaide and accommodation. GET IN!!!!!!!

 

[Singaspursofsixspence]

Any place to recommend for pre match drinks?
