    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!

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.

Thanks for getting back to me Recky, going down on a bus might have been fun but not to be. Have you ever heard of the club sending down supporters buses?

There have often been coaches promoted by the club, operated by Coastal Liner. I've used them multiple time (and I know Recky has too) including both matches at Pirtek in 2014 and the last one at Allianz.

To be fair, the last time (Pirtek 19 Nov), one single coach did both the Tuggerah and Gosford pick-ups and was still less than half full. Can't blame Coastal Liner for giving up. "You don't know what you've got til it's gone..."

Marinators used to fill a bus, maybe 2, to games to Newcastle (Sydney was always train + pub crawl) - but that was with heavy promoting and constant pushing from @Deej

. yep buses are hard

. we have used them a few times either through the club, marinators or yellow army ... you really need to enjoy the ideal of travelling with a bus load of fans, or for it to be super convenient for you personally

. i think the novelty wears off for many and it is often more convenient to make other arrangements - so the extraordinary efforts of the few that organise these things are quickly de-valued

I caught a bus to the scum dome. Going up was ok, but coming home with a bus full of pissheads was painful. Added to that, the agro involved in getting out of the car park… I swore I'd never do it again.

Not to mention the piss breaks when you just want to get home

Yes, that's the one. They were also putting beer bottles under the tyres of the bus.

I heard rumours that piss was being dropped down on us and swore I'd never go to that cesspit of a shit hole ever again.
