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!

    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.

CCM v Drivebys (AKA Staj derby)

I’ve been happy with DPC so far. He is inexperienced and has had a few shaky moments that he was lucky to get away with unlike Pavlesic, but he has also saved us on many occasions. I’m fine for us to stick with him and allow those shaky moments from him to happen as long as he’s developing, and I can see that happening.

Remember Matty Ryan's first few games

How about that lung-busting run after 94 minutes from Doka? What a huge engine. While others were gassed, he looked as fresh as pre-match!
That was tremendous by Doka-what an engine.Also Steele's effort to get back to clear off the line was a lung buster.Maybe the squad's fitness level is better than we armchair critics think

The drivebys did not really press us last night , so am not getting carried away with that result , it could have gone the other way quite easily , I'll enjoy the 3 points as always , ( also hope we make the 6 ) but will wait to see how we deal with a pressing team - player/formation/ coaching/game management wise .
Agreed mate. SFC don't match up well with us coz Talay's press at all costs style creates pressure and we crumbled to it last week. WSW were passive and allowed us to play which was a detriment to them. We aren't gonna have the luxury of 17 shots, 8 on target every week. All we can hope for now is this win has given a boost to the lads confidence and we can create momentum and roll with it into the 2nd half of the season coz we have some catching up to do.

DPC’s trajectory over the last couple of years has been incredible. As I’ve said previously is the best shot-stopper at the club and continues to improve. Distribution has improved since the first few rounds (think that may have just been more nerves/adjusting to the step up as he was always a great distributor in NPL), commands his area well, still growing into his body as well but if he continues to improve on the same trajectory, he’ll be off to Europe making us some big money in a year or 2, just in time for Maty to come home.
