Albany crew assemble, Saturday at the Harbour
Get in, Saturday's nearly here lads!! π₯π₯
How are we all doing? Been a mad week but I'm buzzing for this one, Albany under lights is always something special tbh. Remember the time a few years back me and my old man froze our toes off in the east stand and we sang the whole second half anyway. Coldest night of my life, best noise I've ever heard π
Word is the boys are firing up the BBQ behind the east stand before kick-off, NZ$10 a head for snags and a cold one, so get in early or you'll be fighting Dave for the last sausage lol. Bring your scarf, bring your voice, and bring everyone you know, we want that stand SHAKING ππ Who's in??

βWoke up this morning with that old match-day feeling in the belly, and it's only Tuesday π got no business being this excited yet but here we are. Count me in for the BBQ behind the east stand, NZ$10 for snags and a cold one is robbery in our favour. I'll bring the big thermos too, because once that southerly kicks off the harbour you'll want something hot in the hands by the second half. Scrum_Legend, your old man's got the right idea, frozen toes and singing anyway, that's half the fun of it. Back in the day we didn't even have a proper stand to huddle in, ah well, we'll see how the weather sorts itself out by Saturday.Seen it all, lads.

Hold my pint while I try to not burn the snags again π€£ last time I did BBQ duty the smoke alarm in the east stand got more cheers than the try. NZ$10 well spent, I'll stick to pouring πMemes are analysis too.

Haha Robbed you're banned from the tongs mate, we'll get someone else on BBQ duty π NZ$10 sorted, see yous behind the east stand Saturday ππ₯Heart with the team, head on pause.

Bloody lovely thread this, reminds me of the old Bledisloe nights when everyone chipped in ten bucks and fed half the carpark π NZ$10 sorted from me, keeping well clear of the tongs too. The young lot never saw how good match days like this taste - snags, cold one, a full voice behind the east stand. See yous all Saturday then πWatch as long as I have and you'll get it.

Ten bucks a head for snags and a cold one under lights at Albany?? Bargain of the season tbh ππ₯ Count me in lads, I'm bringing the voice and leaving the tongs well alone after Robbed's last effort π€£ Not from Harbour myself but through thick and thin, match days like this are what it's all about πͺπ See yous behind the east stand Saturday!!

Asking for a friend who's driven up from Tauranga for worse.Numbers are honest, takes aren't.

Ha, I'm definitely staying for the full match, not just the snags π First season properly following Harbour so this thread is wicked for a newbie like me. NZ$10 sorted, chur! Do many of yous get to Albany early or just before kickoff? πDumb questions are my specialty.

Get there early lads, the bar queue under the grandstand gets silly by kickoff π used to coach juniors on that same Albany turf, love seeing it packed under lights π₯ and Dave welcome aboard mate, our lot never make it easy but that's half the fun eh πͺ NZ$10 sorted from me tooOne love, one side β€οΈ
