Graham Hurwood's path to becoming Auckland FC's Number 1 Supporter began long before the Black Knights even existed. Originally from England, where football runs in the blood, Graham played the beautiful game in his youth before life brought him to New Zealand.
When Auckland FC was announced as New Zealand's newest A-League franchise, Graham didn't wait to see if they'd be successful. He believed from day one, securing his place in The Port and committing to support the Black Knights through whatever lay ahead.
As one of the founding voices in The Port, Graham helped establish the supporter culture that has become Auckland FC's signature. The passionate chants, the unwavering support, the inclusive community - Graham was instrumental in creating the atmosphere that visiting teams now fear and home players love.
