    ccmfans.net is the Central Coast Mariners fan community, and was formed in 2004, so basically the beginning of time for the Mariners. Things have changed a lot over the years, but one thing has remained constant and that is our love of the Mariners. People come and go, some like to post a lot and others just like to read. It's up to you how you participate in the community!

    If you want to get rid of this message, simply click on Join Now or head over to https://www.ccmfans.net/community/register/ to join the community! It only takes a few minutes, and joining will let you post your thoughts and opinions on all things Mariners, Football, and whatever else pops into your mind. If posting is not your thing, you can interact in other ways, including voting on polls, and unlock options only available to community members.

    ccmfans.net is not only for Mariners fans either. Most of us are bonded by our support for the Mariners, but if you are a fan of another club (except the Scum, come on, we need some standards), feel free to join and get into some banter.

We should drop deep, counter, play down the wings. Get out fastest attackers out there, so maybe Bernie on the wing and Dukey up front. Maybe try Simon to start, get a big man in the box. Hutch dropping very deeper, Monty doing a lot of pressing and Anthony hanging around in the middle to play the ball to the wings if we win it.

That photo makes me wonder if the front third looks like this:

Bernie----Fitzy----Kim
---------Simon---------

Or would Kim go central?

More likely that they play Kim centrally, because then he'll be in the front two defensively. He wasn't 100% on top of his defensive role on Friday night, that'll take a little time, but I think unless we chang defensive structure entirely that'll be where he tends to play.

1. Look boys your all on the bench tonight we need to fix the defence
2. You boys might not see the ball tonight so just jog around look interested & save your energy for Sat night
or
3. These guys are shit - Go get Em - they lost to GangZoo (what ever they are) & we owned them for 20 mins (quietly hopes the players are dumb & don't realize they lost in the final on away goals)

What's our strategy?

Give it a crack until 2-0 down?
Treat it as a training run to develop the combinations under intense pressure
The league is more important now we slipping out of the race - So play a weak ACL squad to stay fresh for A League while risking our Asian brand?
Park the bus, just park the bloody bus. Worked for Adelaide, worked for Chelsea; worked for the Kiwis at the World Cup.
Then use our devastating pace to kill them off.:innocent:
