A shock resignation struck us all dumb, a man much beloved and with plenty of time still to go in the job. Sure he’d copped a few bad ones but he’d constantly rolled on through and come out with class and dignity.
When you play away from home in these leagues, it often feels like the chips are stacked against you.
With a bunch of dudes missing on international duty, the Nix went to Canberra to play the Mariners and whaddaya know but they still won.
They did it! By God, they finally did it! The Wellington Phoenix won their first game of the season, smoking the Jets 2-0 at Westpac.
The last twenty were like the seventh level of hell. Time never goes slower than when you’re waiting for the mercy of the final whistle, just begging it doesn’t get any worse.
A 92nd minute winner from Milos Ninkovic doomed the Welly Nix to a third consecutive defeat to start the season. Allow the Wildcard and the Doc to put a bit of sense to what was a pretty tragic defeat.
For the first four minutes of the game, while the Nix were bossing 98% of possession, it looked like this would be a pretty different game to what it ended up being.
A loss is only as bad as the best excuse you can find for it and this loss had a very good excuse.
If the Welly Nix are back in action then The Niche Cache is gonna be watching so to help wave in the 2016-17 season, the Diggity Doc and Wildcard had a good long chat about it all.
Andrew Durante's 200th appearance, a 'do-what-it-takes' win over Melbourne City and Phoenix generosity.
Good signs, but another stinker of a game from the Wellington Phoenix as they went down 3-2 to the Newcastle Jets ... who have made the Nix their bunnies.
Blake Powell was perfect, Hamish Watson impressive and the Nix held the fort admirably. It's been a long time coming folks.
Alex Jones was recently signed by the Phoenix but he's still chillin' like a villian.
This guy scored for Perth Glory, they beat the Phoenix 1-0 and the woes continue.
The Wellington Phoenix were once again reasonably average in their loss against Central Coast. There were a few youngsters though who offered some sort of hope and there's a new signing as well.
Melbourne City have Mooy, Fornaroli and a collection of fine football players who were simply a class above the Wellington Phoenix.
Ernie bruh, what's doing?
The A-League's leaders got shafted by the ref and our Wellington Phoenix snuck through a tricky encounter with a 0-0 draw. Chur.
Apparently you only get a yellow card for headbutts these days? Don't let that overshadow a very average display from Wellington Phoenix.
Moss let an easy one in, Riera got two yellows and Adelaide got three goals. Merry Christmas Phoenix fans.
