The Phoenix season in numbers...
22: The number of Phoenix players who took the field. Only Sydney used fewer.
45: The number of consecutive hours of football skipper Andrew Durante played without injury, suspension, substitution or loss of form. Staggering.
26: The percentage of games lost (8 of 30).
100: The percentage of games lost to Sydney (4 of 4).
182: The number of corners Phoenix won in the regular season; more than anyone else.
14: The number of games in which Phoenix scored the first goal. They lost none of them.
126: The distance in kilometres between Wellington and Palmerston North. Please let us never play another home game there.
2326: The number of Facebook friends Paul Ifill has at the time of writing.
32792: The official attendance at the play-off match against Newcastle at the Ring of Fire.
4109: The official attendance at Newcastle's previous playoff game at Gold Coast.
67: The number of appearances Tony Lochhead has now made, all of them starts.
30: The number of hours between when the All Whites arrived back from Los Angeles and the playoff game against Newcastle kicked off. You wouldn't have known.
46: The number of games since David Mulligan was last in the matchday squad. Needless to say, his exit from the club this week didn't come as a huge shock.
6: The number of consecutive A-League matches in which Central Coast Mariners have now failed to score against Phoenix.
2: The number of media at the post-match press conference after the round two match against Perth.
43: The number of media at the post-match press conference after the preliminary final against Sydney FC.
9: My rating out of ten for the Phoenix season. Roll on August!
