not tried to get from bus station. I based my assertion on @Kirwan saying it was easy as to get there during RWC 2011 having previously seemed to think Albany was somewhere north of Wellsford. I just mapped it and it's 1.17 km so 15 minute walk? So about the same as the walk from Twickenham Station to the ground.

Confused, the Albany dig directed at me? I grew up by Glenfield and later Whangarei, so kinda know where Albany (and Wellsford, mores the pity) is.

So why aren't you supporting the (not so) mighty Harbour?

Wasn't really intended as a dig. I remember you thinking Albany would be a ball ache to get to and later saying it was a breeze, so I used you as an ikon for the widely held view that getting to North Harbour Stadium is akin to early 20th century attempts to reach the South Pole

Because I started supporting Auckland in 1984 before Harbour existing. Fucking splitters.

I got stuck in a car park after a game in Albany for an hour. It sucked. Eden Park is a breeze in comparison.
