Mariner stuff not worthy of a whole thread

The flip side is there are a bunch of OS Aussies who may be keen to come back from Italy, Spain and the UK in particular and Europe in general.

That’s true, there might be an added focus on some of those abroad, I think pride will work against us there in most cases though. Someone like Tommy Juric would be a perfect candidate for rebooting his career here before a final payday but seems hellbent on not coming back. Though maybe there’s a chance for a club with deep pockets to pick up someone like Leckie who with a young family might be convinced to take a stint here.

Oh ziggy come on man. I remember when the Millar thing broke l was pissed, if Zig goes north, i'd just be sad.

 

[JoyfulPenguin]

Personally wouldn't be too upset to lose Ziggy, he has been decent but not anything exceptional. I think we can do better foreigner wise, though if the league resets and Charlesworth gets his way we won't have any foreigners at all would we?

 

[Elite]

I'm surprised with people's reactions here. I'd be really upset to lose Ziggy. He absolutely has a place here for mine. Has all the qualities of what this club was built upon when we were at our peak.

Football Federation Australia (FFA) today re-confirmed its intention to resume the Hyundai A-League 2019/20 season as soon as possible, identifying a number of criteria that need to be satisfied before a firm date for the resumption could be set. Those criteria include the sustainable provision of:

• Player and staff Health and Safety threshold requirements State and Federal border restrictions being lifted
• Large gathering restrictions allowing for the required squads and support staff to gather
• Social distancing protocols being agreed with governments to allow the holding of professional games

But wait, there's more..... https://www.smh.com.au/sport/soccer...rnment-approval-is-given-20200423-p54mg9.html

A return date for the A-League will be set only after the FFA gains state and federal government approval - and the organisation still remains in the dark about the future of its broadcast deal with Fox Sports.

The A-League will remain suspended indefinitely after FFA admitted it still had no idea when the competition would resume, only that it plans to finish the 2019-20 season, FFA chief executive James Johnson said.

That's a good point PJ.
There will be surely be some who'll be looking at how well we coped with the virus here,
compared to overseas and maybe think it's worth less money to be safer.
Could the idea of getting some overseas Aussies back in the A League get some interest back into it.
Say the FFA stump up the money for every club to get a couple of good players.
Even better stump up more for the poorer clubs to have some good players.

You can't really blame Ziggy for looking around. Didn't Matty say they weren't getting paid.
I think it'll all be up in the air until the Foxtel deal gets sorted.

There are 7 clubs that aren't being paid. City, Victory, Nix and SFC are the only clubs that are paying players at the moment.

I have been informed that Donny Parkes passed away this morning. Legendary Socceroos and Mariners’s supporter. Such a shame we can’t see him off with a sea of yellow. He will be missed and remembered.

Sad news

 

[ryan]

Very sad news. I used to see him on the train travelling to Socceroos games in Sydney

 

[BrisRecky]

RIP Donnie ...you mad Mariner you , apart from his inborn love of Fulham and the eons he spent at St George FC , the man was blue and yellow through and through

 

[Pokes]

Such sad news about Donnie - an absolute legend in our club history.

Don bled football, through and through, and was a huge part of the football community.
