Take The Long Way Home
- Zephyr Rovers FC
- The new indoor stadium proposed by the council near Wellington Airport and some considerable distance from the central city.

Save Our Game
- Zephyr Rovers FC
- Zephyr Rovers Manager Steve Hall today confirmed he would be making a submission to the Wellington City Council next week to save sport on the waterfront. "The council has decided we need a Hilton Hotel on the waterfront and I have no issue with that" said Hall "but we want to see an alternative venue for sport on the waterfront as we sure can't jog to Kilbernie at lunch time to play in the new indoor facility out there".
