Central Coast Mariners Squad for 2008/09 Season

[soccersensei]

Yeah Matty is away till whenever the team returns.

Its a bit of a win lose situation for Matty Simon as hopefully he gets to show himself on the world stage with the Olyroos or at least gets to experience the Olympic games.
However when he comes back to the club he would surely be the forth striker at the Club with Dylan and Sash starting as well as Nik coming back to full fitness off the bench.
He will get his chances throughout the season but i might only come because of injury. Surely he would have to play in NYL as one of the overage players to keep fit!

Does anyone know why the move for Charlie Miller fell through?

 

[mariners4ever]

Yep, he only came to Australia to trial with us until it broke down then got a trial at QLD.

we waited too long to sign him because we thought we were getting higher profile players from the sheffield partnership

 

[skilbeck]

oh well im not too upset we didnt get him

[mariners4ever]

Non-existant i think?

what is non-existant ??

 

[Tassiemariner]

Trading of players

 

[mariners4ever]

no i think that their players just didnt want to come over

 

[Tassiemariner]

True and that isn't really the no.1 reason why were in a partnership with them.
Commercial, global connections and learning about youth academys are more important than getting there reserves.

i hear the cousin of the 2nd choice keeper for their u'17s side could be looking at moving out here soon

and a 'global' alliance of property dealings involving turnbull. i wouldn't be getting excited anytime before 2050.

At present there are not many players at Sheffield that we would need to sign. Many players that are at sheffield are in their prime or past it. Best player i reckon we could get would be Garry Speed or Lee Hendrie and we all know Lee doesnt want to play out here.
Gary would be a good signing but he is not really the time of player we need as we are served well in midfield.

Bit rich of the Mariners to sign a partnership deal with an established Alliance of Clubs, then straight away ask for someone else's players on loan. Maybe if we sent one or two of our players over first, then Sheffield might have listened a bit more attentively. With very established clubs like Sao Paolo and Sheffield we are very much the new kid on the block and have to show some substance in our worth first I reckon.

Shef were up for it. Players themselves were against
