Mariners V MV Rd 9 - NSO match

[sydmariner]

I just posted this on the Stand Up for the Mariners page on FB.

all us Coasties could watch the game on the big screen instead of going to the game.

it was done for the season 1 grand final but it's a good idea though

9 pages of comments and next to nothing about the game itself. crazy times indeed.
1. I'm fine with one, two, and it's really pushing it but maybe even three games away for the marketing reasons. any more Definitely not.
what worries me is a) McKinna's reaction and b) some of the scary stuff I've read about Storrie. on the face of it I'm ok with the current situation IF that's how it remains. what leaves me nervously watching and waiting is points a) and b).

2. MV are in dangerously good form. leaving big players out is pretty arrogant and I'm hoping it comes back to bit.ch slap muscrat.
in some ways I like playing very good opposition right now, we'll be forced to step up a little. we did in the last ACL and it made a massive difference to our season last season. a win would go down very nicely about now.

It's hard to talk about the Football.
We will probably put out a substandard starting 11 and play dull safety first football that will see us create 4 or 5 chances for the whole game.
We will probably lose again and Mossy will talk about the progress being made.

That is the Groundhog Day we have been re-living each week.

Or Mossy can change the formation and play attacking Football and even if we lose we can be happy as we have actually had a go.

It's only groundhog day because you're not actually watching the games.

Really??? Who is organising it. Haven't heard anything on social media. Hope they get a good turn out because ten people shouting will look bad.

Its slightly different circumstances, my take on the matter is it's about fans not wishing to attend NSO and show we support our team playing at our home ground!
Its a very complex suggestion though i can easily see how it could fly right over somebody's head

MC just stated on the world game website that he will be upset if they don't have a crowd of 10,000. I think he is in for a rude shock. With the coasties mostly not coming and rain and storms predicted I think the crowd will be less than 5,000. That will be inflated by the fact that 1,000 kids are coming for free.

When do they ever do this for HOME games?

A lot of people already pissed off, and this is just making it worse!

 

[sydmariner]

Maybe it the same people who started up that NS mariners twitter page

I think they have sent that to everyone who is in the database. No problem with this but why can't this be done for home games? I fail to understand why the massive effort put in for the NSO game can't be replicated for CCS games.

Because they are *dead set scared* that the crowd will only be nominal and it will be hard to put a positive spin on a crowd of sub 10K. given all the unique North Shore marketing effort they have put in. It would be red faces all round.

Exactly. If they put the same amount of effort into the home games, they wouldn't need to move to North Sydney.
