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!

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.
Happy with Vernes, happy with Mane; both positive attacking options. I like the way we are shaping up, I think we will be a high energy pacy attacking unit. Write off the Mariners if you dare!
So just a top drawer striker to go with Simon and Duke and we are ready to tear the Scummers a new one.
Duke 3 goals in 19 starts plus 10 games as sub; Simon 2 goals 11 in games plus 15 games as sub.Based on last year's performances by Simon and Duke, the Jets currently look like having the 'sharper pencil'. So a top draw striker would certainly add the final touch. We look strong in the midfield and back line, but I hope our 'pointy end' will take advantage of the service they should get.

I had not realised how awful they were - 5 goals in 30 starts between them is a decidedly unpointy end! The eraser on the Jets' pencil is sharper than that!
To be fair Dukey was playing out of position last season for most of it and got bugger all service when he did get a chance up front. If he gets chances he will score plenty. He knows where the goal is.Based on last year's performances by Simon and Duke, the Jets currently look like having the 'sharper pencil'. So a top draw striker would certainly add the final touch.

Good point. There certainly was some disconnect between mids and forwards last year once Flores got crocked. However, a striker makes it his business to be in the right spot. Watch Berisha and our Macca. They hunt the ball wherever it is. Unless under strict instructions to hold position, forwards should not be standing forlornly waiting for something.To be fair Dukey was playing out of position last season for most of it and got bugger all service when he did get a chance up front.

Means WeeMac is certainly on his way.

Looks like we have a new number 10.Vernes Highlights
There is a chance we keep MC ... and use Fity & Mane up front and maybe Vernes ..
Assume Mane & Duke up front ... behind them MC, Kim, Fity, Vernes, Kalic & Caceres .. or bring Mane back and use Fity up front ... we would have a very creative midfield... the Spanish option to make Fozzie happy heaps of attacking mids ...
Obviously can head a ball....Vernes Highlights
