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!

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.

Mariner stuff not worthy of a whole thread

Birra is the only keeper capable of putting pressure on Ryan. The others are just glorified tourists. Deeply disappointed with this squad - so many there that are past it. Arnie still defiantly picking his mates while they drag him down.

And us...

He's going to an even more successful club.

Alloa perhaps?
Nothing to surprising in those announcements. All of them would have cost a lot of $$$ and didn’t perform at all. I guess a few were on loan but goes to show loan deals are not always great as the player isn’t all that committed.

Yeah I'm genuinely disappointed in Arnie's selections.
I think he thinks that if he changes too much he *admits* he's gotten it wrong to this point, and if this selection does get us through he'll be vindicated.

I assume Arnie will move on after his contract is up, and after overlooking important IN-FORM weapons at such a critical time, I wouldn't have it any other way.

JC was the most prolific striker in the league in the last third of the season, and added 9 assists to his goals. Not even a phone call, even to discuss why no selection this time. Weak.

True, but if that’s the line you’re taking and assuming Redders never gets on then we should be taking a younger keeper like Glover or Gauci for succession planning. Birraz is younger (and better) than Redmayne anyway if you’re looking at the shorter term.
Absolutely it’s terrible but the otherside of the argument is one less tracksuit to buy as he’s already got one. That is literally the i reason to take him

I don’t agree with the approach but maybe Arnie thinks if you want an Aussie jersey you have to earn it by demonstrating a commitment to Australian football, not just signing mid-season and putting your hand up? If JC announced his AU intentions well before he joined CCM then I stand corrected but if not…

Arnie doesn't think like that or else he wouldn't have played Fornaroli
