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.

. umm, i'm confused one of the links you provided states:

During the 2006–07 season, the FFA announced that Sydney had been found guilty of salary cap breaches regarding the 2005–06 season.

... so their breach in their toilet seat winning season was not announced until the season after which is as i remember it

. what i didn't remember was that they were pinged for subsequent breaches and copped the suspended sentence too ... surely that also indicates a systemic failure to abide by the cap rules
Yes, your memory looks pretty good. All the breaches related to the 2005/2006 season and there were 2 separate investigations resulting in two separate penalties, with a total of 3 points finally being deducted for the 2006/07 season, those 3 points included the activation of the suspended 1 point penalty from the 1st. breach investigation. Also a 1 point deduction was held suspended in abeyance pending SFC's compliance for the following 2 seasons.

It does look like they had a systemic failure to abide by the salary cap rules, but the penalties were mitigated by SFC's co-operation with the FFA investigation. Apparently no such co-operation has been given by PG.

In defence of Morton he is our third choice RB playing alongside very poor quality defenders; Mrdja was our first choice striker - and, I say with absolute confidence - we would have won the toilet seat in the first GF if he had been fit to play.
Worst player? Greg Owens comes to mind...

So funny that Greg Owens and Jamie McMaster were actually my favourite players at times. Remember Owens scoring a long range cracker into the top corner and McMaster bossing melbourne Victory

Robbie is fine.
Excellent player in his day. A better pundit than Harper.
I thought his son would be better than he has shown so far.

Didn't you forget hutch, is there any players that you do like

You're dumbest post ever.

Hutch was in my starting 11 for our first 6 seasons. He would also have been in my squad for the last few years.

Of our current crop I don't rate.....Morton, Zac, Bosnar or Sim at all.

Give us a break. Post after post of dumb shit. Just stop.

I'll give you a tip… next time you want to post something, go for a long walk and clear your head. If you still think it's worth posting upon your return, then fair play, post away.
