[FFC Mariner]

Nice of CCLC to have only 1 bar open.

They just dont give a shit about football do they?

 

[Johnno]

thats y i went to mingas

 

[Bex]

Yeh, I was at Mingas too. Sports bar with big screen and dedicated bar

 

[batman]

Wrong! Or have you just joined in? Each season all away games are booked in by the Marinators where all are welcome including kids with a bar person in the only football dedicated bar in NSW and probably Australia.

Now as I am just back from holidays I saw no request for Kendall, and none of the usual enquiries on showing the game, and on talking to the couple of people who did enquire, being a Thursday night I made the call to show it on the big screen in the Sports bar big screen and in the Kendall without bar service. Kellys bar was open. I might remind that this also happened for the first away game last year.

Now again as you'd know if you were a regular, all further away games are shown in the Kendall home of the Mariners, as booked in by the Marinators where all supporters young and old are welcome. Lets see you there.

As for mingas..... yeah they done a lot for football fans.

So lets not give Charles the s.... this early in the season. :-*

lol thanks Charles for opening it up for us poor souls who couldnt make the trip to Melbourne.

As always - having the Kendall and Sports Bar showing a-league is appreciated - Great atmosphere in there. I think next time im going to hang around and have a giggle at the post match show too .

Settle petal. I know your comments are mainly aimed at the "not give a shit about football" statement, but I was at the Kendall for nearly every away game last season. Being a Thursday night I'm normally at mingas for the badge draw and to catch up with mum (who lives in the retirement village next door).

Only opening 1 bar at one end of the club when CCLC knew that they would have extra patrons would tend to imply that, apart from opening an otherwise empty room, no other effort was made.

 

[Sym]

oh I was at mingers aswell, had no idea other forumites were there, then again we were pretty much shooting pool the whole game.

 

[Gopher of Pern]

Quite a few of us were at Mingers it seems.

 

[Sym]

Excellent venue for football...and free snooker

Reminds me of how CCLC don't bother keeping the food shops open after games.... Frustrating when you're hungy, and doesn't make much sense.  Don't get me wrong, I certainly appreciate what CCLC does for the marinators.  Doesn't stop us complaining about things we don't like though

 

[Bear]

bring back the seedy hot dog guy out the front

he would make thousands after a home game

 

[Yellowbeard]

The seedy hot dog guy is now a duty manager at cclc. Need to find a new seedy hot dog guy

 

[uptheguts]

Scotty hot dogs.......

You have a call in the front foyer!!!!

 

[batman]

No problems with the complaints thats how i get things changed. For example food situation, which willnow work on.
Was aimed at the 's..t' line as you said, which got up my back.  As no interest was shown on any site or calls took the gamble on numbers.

Melbourne was awesome. Thanks to all who came down and enjoyed the game with me! Am sorry about all the jam...

 

[Alicia]

There was a lot of jam....

Melbourne was awesome!  Singing the anthem as the boys walked out and after the hoopla of winning the first game of the season had died down was sensational.

My favorite quote of the trip - "I want to be in the cockpit, just so I can say the word flaps"
