Mossy's fired back over Flores' comments:

Coach Phil Moss says Marcos Flores is where he is because of the support he received at the Mariners

MARINERS coach Phil Moss has fired back at Marcos Flores’ claims that he did not receive adequate support from the Central Coast club while recovering from a serious knee injury.

The Argentine playmaker, now with the Newcastle Jets, played 13 games for the Mariners last season before a full knee reconstruction ruled him out of the remainder of the season.

But Moss, who made the decision not to renew the 28-year-old’s contract, says Flores wouldn’t be in line to play for the Jets against the Mariners on Saturday if it wasn’t for the support he received from the Central Coast medical staff.

“We all know it was a difficult time for Marcos, but I won’t have a former player question the integrity of our club,” Moss said.

“Our medical team is extremely professional and they go well above and beyond the call of duty because they care about our players. The support he received was second to none — he knows that and I know that. If he’s got an issue with not being offered a new contract, then take that up with me, but don’t make a sweeping generalisation that he got no support form the football club, because he did.”

But it wasn’t just from the medical team that Flores received support, Moss says.

The club provided him with a send-off in Gosford, which was well attended by fans and helped Flores raise money for the Johnny Warren Football Foundation.

Flores also specifically asked Moss to make an early decision on his playing future at the club in order for him to explore his options.

“For a club that supposedly showed no support, I don’t think we would have gone out of our way to do all that,” Moss said.

“Unfortunately he was on a one-year contract and I only have a squad of 23 and I had to get reinforcements in, who did very well for us.

“It’s a cruel world sometimes, but it was a purely football decision I was forced into making. It’s not the nicest part of our jobs as professional coaches.”

GO MOSSY! I have to admit, much as it sucks to lose players to other clubs, especially those nearby, it's very thoughtful of them that they often actively do their best to make me dislike them after they leave

Agreed. WeeMac and Flores had to be two of the most likeable guys...almost impossible not to love. That's all gone now.

Where's Matty? I mean, I know that he's been unavailable, but I thought he would've at least been listed as unavailable?

 

[Wombat]

Flores would still be here and wanted to still be here. WeeJudas is a dog.

 

[Capt. Awesome]

Anyone got a PAX update? Or is everyone members here?

I think that only those injured or away on international duty are listed as unavailable. Everyone else is available but haven't made the squad. Morton, Kalik, Matty, New CB, also not there.

Glad to see the jets have added some flair to their line up and put a porn star in their squad….

I'm sure that's not an indication of the total starting 11. Rather.....looks like Mossy had the defensive starting team, maybe including the DM's on one side...against possibly the starting attacking team on the other. It would be a pointless exercise not testing the defence in a practice match and making it totally one sided.

Looking back at the post, i'm sure this is right..Matty's not even in the squad so can't be the number 9. I'll be amazed if Dukey and Caceres don't start and think Caceres will be the number 10.

I still like Flores, and think it was silly of us to reject his offer to stay on basic minimum wage.

Missed the first 8 minutes of the Live Pre-Game Interviews stream, damn. From what I saw it seems to be a great CCM initiative. Only 16 max. viewers on YouTube but probably, hopefully many more watching it direct from the club's website.
Hope they have a repeat, please?

At the time we had Kim, Trif, and thought we had Mikey coming back. TO be quote honest, if they wanted to keep him then they wouldn't have signed Trif, but I suppose when we signed Trif we didn't know Marcos wanted a small time contract to keep playing for us.

If he didn't get support from the team, why didn't he just leave for Argentina earlier if he knew he wasn't staying with us?

I loved that quote from Monty about Mikey, "would like to give him a good kick"

Good stuff! He did say it would be good to see them though, didn't he?
