    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.

A-League Transfers and Rumours

I was listening to A League off air and PK was the guest, he is close to signing and I think it’s the Vuck. Get the feeling he feels let down by CFG after his French experience.

One thing is certain he will be back in the A Liga next season it’s just with who.

What how CFG let him down. They didn't sack after 18months of shit results.
He was explaining it, effectively gave him a team of teenagers with no experienced players and wouldn’t allow him to bring some in. Then they blamed him for the poor results. I think even he was amazed he lasted that long under the circumstances. I just get the feeling he has seen the true CFG ideology. Said all he needed was two or three experienced players to help with game management and it would have been different. He likes youth and you can see the results of the youth that City have sold on over the last few years. But just like us you need a few old heads in a team.

Then he started talking up the Vuck as a club. Seemed he was in pretty advanced stages with a club and it didn’t appear to be City. When I seen the Popa story it started filling in the gaps.

Having listened to him he has a very good football brain and I can see why he is a decent coach. If he goes to the Vuck he will win silverware. Worth a listen, I’m actually starting to like Thompson more after listening to the pod every week.

Vuck is the only open job unless Perth spent up big

Would love to see Robbie Fowler back in Oz. He generates interest where Paddy is a bit boring. Having said that i rate Paddy highly as a coach. I also remeber Monty saying he and Patrick were the highest accredited coaches in Australia.

Rudan got an extension but I wouldn’t be getting too comfy if I were him. Veart probably not in a terribly secure spot if his season starts poorly. Aloisi in the danger zone too.
I don’t think they get rid of Rudan after the contract they signed but they won’t be happy but he will get at least the start of next season.

Veart is safe for now. Plays the youth which the club wants. They need to fix their foreigners. They have never replaced the Isias

Jonny would have been in trouble but they have been one of the better teams to finish the season and the club seems shirt on cash to get foreigners so a coach payout seems unlikely.
