ccmfans.net is the Central Coast Mariners fan community, and was formed in 2004, so basically the beginning of time for the Mariners. 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!
If you want to get rid of this message, simply click on Join Now or head over to https://www.ccmfans.net/community/register/ to join the community! It only takes a few minutes, and joining will let you post your thoughts and opinions on all things Mariners, Football, and whatever else pops into your mind. If posting is not your thing, you can interact in other ways, including voting on polls, and unlock options only available to community members.
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.

I always smiled to myself when I dropped my son at his mates house there.
I sadly found out later it was nothing to do with the footballer, although I really shouldn't have been surprised.

It also refers to Matty`s habit (over the years) of just clipping opponents ankles...without intent of course.its a "throwback" to the days of Norman Hunter, a very tough tackling Leeds player

I unashamedly made the banner as a tribute to Norman Hunter (RIP) and to Matty.
I'll acknowledge a cracker if it happens to us, I'm definitely not clapping a shitty deflection or tap in.

I'm an idiot savant without the pesky savant bit

... but because of flooding and the cancellation of the Grand Final we never got the chance to display it, so we now show it at home games instead.

That’s a pretty substantial fall from grace. Not even to one of the NPL tiers?

Yes and no. Depends what he wants to do/ He is 25 and not going to make it in the professional game in Australia. If he loves the game and wants concentrate on a non-football profession/trade then the step down is a good balance. He will also be a good player to mentor a lot of the younger guys at Terrigal
