2021/22 season

I am aware that Methcarthur tried to sign him when Staj was coach but the club talked him round. Hope he understands where his best chance of being properly developed is and it ain’t southwest Sydney

 

[shipwreck]

Wouldn't make sense at all.

Dude is starting every week, has improved out of sight and we are a proven overseas development club.

If you're a young guy with a shit load of potential, CCM is where you want to be.

Lateral transfers within the Aleague or for people who have peaked.

Hopefully the club can give him a wage that’ll keep him and the confidence he’ll be playing a key role with us

Exactly. Money is why you go to Macathur
and he was probably pissed at being behind Nigro last year.
I remember a play Miller sign in the crowd last year. Some family or friends showing frustration. Maybe for him?

I wonder if it would be to play CB which is his preferred role and it was us who keep pushing him to be a RB

I think his better CB than RB but he has improved this season

I recall either Monty or Ken saying he had been reluctant to convert to RB so you might be right that he still sees CB as his long term position and that's the carrot that's being dangled.

Given the potential he has to play at a decent level overseas, money shouldn't play any real part in decisions he is making at this stage of his career

Yeah it was Ken on the pod and that’s what i was referring to.

Overseas should still happen if he goes to Mac as long as his agent makes it a priority in his contract.

Rams are becoming the new CCM South

 

[FFC Mariner]

When you pay shit, people leave.
CCM is no different to any other workplace.
That's why transfer fees are so important. We are a selling club who can't get paid

 

[turbo]

Moving for a CB role would be very risky at this stage of his career, if he doesn’t perform immediately they’ll put 2 experienced players in front of him and stall his progression without a second thought. I don’t think that’s the right play at all.

 

[Ironbark]

Historically CB seemed to be his strength. His recent raids into the box have been very successful and I'm hoping he is enjoying that growing part of his game

 

[priorpeter]

Heard today that Miller is going to Macarthur. Anyone else hear this?

?

 

[crock]

hope its not true

 

[Ancient Mariner]

A good quality fullback should be much more desirable to any club than a centre back.

That's arguable.Centre backs marking opposition strikers have the most important job in the team.Admittedly the demands on fullbacks these days in attack and defence are huge but if you can't match the spearhead your team is stuffed.Also Goalies would always want a strong CB in front of them

All this from a long retired LB .

Central Coast Stadium had a Facebook post for its February events.

It appears we play Macarthur at home next Thursday 10th as well as our scheduled Sunday 13th game against Perth.

February Fixtures Frenzy for Central Coast Mariners

The Mariners have seven games to play in the month of February

[pjennings]

7 games in 22 days, with 2 homes games on 10th and 13th

 

[marinermick]

Looks like next week’s game against Perth is off. Covid has ravaged them.

Good and one day someone will explain to me why I have an irrational hatred of them

Were we due to play them next week and the 13th? I can still see the 13th showing up in the fixtures list. They may be out by then, can’t imagine they’ll be in good shape but we’ve been there.

 

[AJames]

Hopefully they should have a team back by Sunday week. Only this weekends and the midweek game was postponed for now.
