    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.

Duric IS NOT a 'very big unit' !

@TysonP & I both sat up in GrandStand near to him, GG & Tongyik up at the Weston game in Kuri Kuri.

A 'unit' is the last word I'd use to describe his stature.
He must have been playing in the midget league then, he looked enormous from the videos! I haven't seen him in real life, who would you compare him to? How big compared to Simon for example?

The videos you are watching are probably for a forward of the same name. Lots of headed goals. We have signed an AM.

I thought Berisha is an Albanian muslim. Thats why I thought he was wrong to take offense at being called a gypsy. If he isnt a gypsy and finds it offensive then he is prejudiced against them. Are you saying that he is roma/gypsy? I get what you are saying if that is the case.
The DUI was a joke because muslims dont (or shouldnt) drink alcohol. Lighten up.
Does your white KKK hood affect your sight when you are driving?

He's tall and skinny. I didn't really pay enough attention to know how he compares to Simon but he is maybe a similar height but skinnier - a bit like Fabinho at Liverpool.

When someone from a majority muslim region say they are offended by being called the name of an ethnic group that are by and large Christian, my question is "why do they find that offensive, unless they despise that group"? In doing this I was defending gypsies/roma/travellers, not denigrating them.

A civilized response to my intial question could have been something like “Some Roma are muslims. I think Berisha is a Roma. The term ‘gypsy’ can be a perjorative term. That’s why he took offence” Although I cant find anything saying that he is a Roma/traveller/gypsy I would have accepted this explanation. I really had no idea that this may be the case. My concern was that he was discriminating against this minortity group.
Instead, some of you chose to find offence where it didn’t exist.
So, No, there is no pointy hat obscuring my vision.

That's how I took what you said.

There is a better way to divide people anyway. This:

Finally some news. Mark Moric has left after only being offered a NYL contract (which is all his form and ability warranted as I'm sure Mick will agree).
And it looks like we have signed another injury prone defender. Was decent in the A League before signing in Korea but has been released after being injured and not playing. Nothing from the club until all the formalities are done but I was told it is DeFinite (there's your clue)
