Mariners squad HAL 10 ~ 2014/15

I wish I could go to the Fan's Forum

I've read that while on loan he's off the books, and with the new additions to the club if he were to return earlier than Jan he wouldn't fit in under the cap anymore and the club is hoping to squeeze him in with the usual mid season fire sale!

It's a kiwi article written for a kiwi audience. Chill out guys.

But if we do release him then f**k me.

Wouldn't surprise though, we did loan him out at a time when he was our best player while we were struggling.

this is getting out of vugking control if true

Highly unlikely he would go there.
He is as Kiwi as I am ...apart from 1 year difference.
They are shit....we love him.....why would he move?

Because the Mariners budgeted to not have him.
That said, we have since released Justin, Marcos, and set to release a couple more. Ergo, there SHOULD be room for Mikey and if not then heck why don't we just bump him up to marquee?

"I don't really know where that talk has come from, to be honest," McGlinchey said. "Maybe a couple of the boys have started that. Maybe one day I guess but I am contracted to two clubs at the moment so I can't really be talking too much about it."

Hardly a major re-buff - Basically while I'm contracted else where I can't be saying what I want. The old team mates started the rumor (after I told em).

Not sure who is hogging all the cash so we couldn't afford to keep him. Did we pay overs for Kim? Just got rid of Kwas & lost out on Ibini so can't be a salary cap thing.

In last 2 months he's now been linked with SFC & Welly - So not good signs.

McGlinchey was coy on the subject when speaking after the South Africa match.

Sheesh, the entire article is coy... It's all speculative language... Reads to me akin to some of the hopeful pieces around him going to Sydney, the author would clearly like to see WeeMac in Wellington, so he writes the piece in that direction.
For mine at least, it'd be silly for WeeMac to burn his bridges by saying something like "HELL NO! I'll never play in Wellington", first off it probably wouldn't be true, second off, why would you piss off the one club that might let him play at a higher level, in New Zealand one day, even when reaches the end of his career?

Sofar, I still most of this stuff as bored journos, frustrated that we're between seasons... Aren't the other clubs supposed to be getting our approval before even talking to a player that has more than six months left on his contract anyway?

Sometimes football rumours are just total made-up bullshit with no grounding in reality except some reporter's fantasy. You hear things about someone being linked to a move away from a club they've always wanted to join for big money like 3 months after joining. There's the no reality, that player isn't leaving, some reporters have overactive imaginations on slow news days or to fill space when talking about football.

 

[eenfish]

Like, the Shitney rumour probably started because somebody joked "hah who next McGlinchey?" and people just ran with it. And the Wellington rumour is just some reported buffing up a piece about an All-Whites match.

Great news

Pinched from twitter @SocStoppageTime: Stealth can confirm the @ccmariners aren't waiting around and have re-signed Anthony Caceres, Storm Roux, Zac Anderson and Mitch Duke #SST

 

[Wombat]

Good.
What about Weemac?

That's interesting; are these contract extensions? No sign of Griffiths?

 

[Big Al]

Best wait for the club as SST have a bad wrap don't they?

 

[nebakke]

I was thinking this too... Aren't they the ones that throw around any ole rumout at the first sniff of a potential story?

 

[tsd]

The key words are "can confirm" the dodgie stuff has "are hearing that"

 

[Jura]

Really glad about the 3 forwards remaining another year! They will need to get at least two more before the seasons kicks off though

 

[Kripple]

McGlinchy was offered big contract by Wellington and asked for a release but was told no way. He was allowed to accept big money to go to China on understanding he would be back in Jan. Will be back Jan.
