i cant see it,its too far and theres the possibility we,ll be playing europa league in july, nothing in that link to connect everton.
 
I won't be there but I saw us play Melbourne Heart here a couple of years ago in a pre-season tour.

The football isn't serious but it's great to see Everton in our colours close up.

While I'm here, we're going to Auckland for a wedding and we'll be there from Feb' 13th till the 18th.

Never been before, though it looks like a fabulous city, so what would you Kiwi Blues suggest as things worth seeing/doing while we're there?

Oh, and how do I find out what Everton are doing on that weekend? I .think we're away at Sunderland.

I either watch it live on Foxtel here in Melbourne or listen to the radio - 5 live via BBC World Service - and watch the replay the next day.

We're staying at a city hotel - Park Regis - and I don't know what their TV set up is.

1: The islands in the Hauraki Gulf are stunning this time of year try waiheke or mt rangitoto for great views
2: Rainbows End is overated as hell
3: Waitakere Ranges are lovely for a good old walk in Native Bush,
4: I've heard the bungies and sky walk is pretty good
5: the zoo is alright as well.
6: The Viaduct has some lovely restaurants to dine out at by the Central Auckland waterfront.
7: Find a beach, Takapuna is nice but busy. They're everywhere.

In terms of watching the match, you won't find it on TV anywhere boss.

SkyNZ lost the rights to an internet streaming company - PremierLeaguePass.com - this season, so you can watch games online. If your hotel has a decent wifi network you can buy one off games so I'd recommend hooking into that. Picture is good so long as your network can handle it.

Having said all that, just looked up the fixtures and that will be FA Cup 5th round weekend. We've Palace at home on the 12th, but sounds like you'll be home for that one.

Streaming the FA Cup is a different story - so far I don't think there's any of it on TV, and you'll probably need to find an errant tributary to watch it live...

Ease up lads, the Phoenix are alright! Just smashed Melbourne 5 nil.

I've heard something similar to this. Absolute scenes if this happens, SCENES FFS!

How many would come over for a week on the ale at Longys?

Deffo maybe from me, though mrs D just piped up...'I wanna go back to Auckland too '...doh

( came over to Brisbane (( from Auckland )) in 2010 for the game there, took the week off after the game to use up hols ( it was a use em or lose em type deal ), found a job while I was there, came back, sold up, moved over 3 or 4 weeks later. )

Fa cup is live on espn, which is channel 61 on sky
 
Club should look to run a "sheep go free" promotion.

Might be able to get more than 5,000 people there.....

FA Cup games are on ESPN...Sky Channel 054 (or 055)...they play 2 or 3 games live.
