    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.

I really hate the system the way its set up now. Its set up too much like AFL, and the NRL or anything in America. I like the structure they have virtually everywhere else in the world with the league and the cup being separate. I however, don't mind the fact that ACL qualification comes from the "cup" winner, but I reckon there should be a separate Asian competition for cup winners ultimately.

I think finals are good simply because it attracts non-football viewers. Finals football is so attractive.

The team who won the premiership deserves an Asia spot, if for instance only one was given out you would give it to the minor premier. 2nd most deserving is the grand final winner. Now if it was that the Grand final winner was to be the Minor premier, it should go to the team that finished 2nd during the season, not the grand final runner-up.

I thought it was completly stupid last season that if we had beat Adelaide to make the Grand final we would have got the second asia spot, it should have gone to adelaide regardless of who won the final

agree completely.

Dont forget there is that Hawaii tornament every year presumably for one a-league team. Are they still expecting the loser of the prelim to play in that?

Umm no it's not.

It has to be the loser of the Minor Semi because that's the only team that will have enough preparation to get to Hawaii in time.

The tournament starts on the 20th of Feb and the Preliminary final is on the 17th.
