    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!

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.

Low hanging fruit but I have to state the bleeding obvious and say that we looked like we missed Lachie this evening. I hope the club has reinforcements lined up, as we also look light on in the striker department, although Brandtman did put a solid shift tonight.
Transfer window has slammed shut so reinforcements seem unlikely - though we do have Nico Duarte to come back from injury and Migzy to come back from international duty.

Will be interesting to see if or when a few a pulled for a break before A League team starts training or they keep going.

If not already another maybe 2 wins would be enough to stay up. Great result for the club especially after the poor start

None of us are really coping with this Lachie Bayliss decision are we
Probably because nobody understands it. I don’t even know the kid but spent many an afternoon at Pluim watching him. Cutting him without obvious reason with no obvious replacement just makes no sense. It’s generally not what we are about.
But anyhow, flogging a dead horse to keep talking about it but it will be in our minds I think, for some time to come.

I heard it was because it was felt he wasn’t fully focused on being a professional footballer. Just what I heard
on a scholarship wage that’s not unreasonable. Anyone with half a brain would be considering their options and have some long term options.

Not replacing a starting player seems crazy to me. Either keep them for the end of the season paying peanuts or bring someone in. It doesn’t stack up and it’s very possible someone in the club will be eating humble pie if he makes it with the jets. Can’t get them all right of course but this one is odd.

My comment was in reference to Sunmola. Lachy Bayliss has been the ultimate professional.
