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.

The game in Wellington where he and De Silva were supreme is still a vivid memory. Our best ever performance under Okon, and Hoole’s and De Silva’s best ever game in yellow.

Or getting another DUI.
Saw old mate Danny Hoole a couple months ago, was at Randwick races and saw him feed about 47 $50 notes into the tab machine for the first race

Well if true, that’s about as f**king depressing as it gets.

Have to assume this is an assumption rather than knowledge.
Worth reflecting on the fact that Bozanic played himself into the ground for us before whatever it is that is going on now.

Read Luke's post in the other thread.
Not an assumption at all

We have had plenty of Mariners players and staff in for massages since 2013. The Scummer is the only person they didn't like. (In defense of Fatboy, getting a decent massage in Newy is harder to find than a full set of teeth in Mayfield, so maybe he forgot where he was).
A waste of a great Football talent = Hoole.

Newcastle youth coach told me that as a kid Hoole was far and away the best player in any team he was in. Said he needed to go to Sydney as a kid - was too easy for him in the local comps and he got arrogant and lazy as a footballer.
He also said he was a real talent too

Absolutely. He worked his guts out and was our midfield while Monty toyed around with Nizzy as winger etc. Now we are relying on Nizzy in that role. I think we would struggle in the midfield if JN left anytime soon.

He absolutely has to be on the radar of a few technical leagues I would think.
We all love him and see what he does week in week out. I feel he does not get the credit he deserves and it’s wrong. Does anyone know if he has ever had any serious interest from OS? I might be greedy but I love he has been with us for four years now and would like a few more. I still think his size is a problem but he has absolutely proven that wrong over the years. He has caused so many players well above his experience problems over the last few years. I always felt Diamanti rated Nizz and his contributions.

There's plenty of leagues that don't value English footballers, read athletic. He's technical and has 400 football IQ which would suit many leagues in Europe, even Japan or Korea.

I think his issue is his lack of results in the finishing and assists catagories, not saying its right just as a scout trying to sell it to a Chairman or a Board it would be hard without those key stats.
Now if you were to look at secondary assists....
This isn't to say I don't love his work rate and know he's one of the key reasons to our competitive nature the last 2 years, just trying to look at it objectively.

Agreed. When he starts racking these stats up we won't be able to hold onto him

I'd heard nothing either way beyond rumour on the Ollie situation...but yesterday got some pretty solid confirmation that what's being said by the likes of FFC Mariner and Luke is accurate.
Big $$ contract asked for (not sure if accurate, heard asking in the range of $500k) but the club needs to upgrade some of the youth if we want to hold onto them. Ollie playing hardball and the club and coaches not taking it.
If it is as true as it's firming up to look it's a damn shame. Local hero and all but no one is bigger than the club. Ollie is totally worth big money but should know we just can't do it. See out your contract and look for a bigger payday elsewhere if you have to, but refusing to play or pushing yourself out of being an option is simply not cool.
