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!
If you want to get rid of this message, simply click on Join Now or head over to https://www.ccmfans.net/community/register/ to join 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.
Posco available, hope straight back in for AscroftSaturday, 31 October 2015

Arnie very respectful about CCM then has a shot at our wingers who don't defend (his words)
So we know what he is scared of them.
In all honesty, I consider Sydney to be our real rivalry. Might be a season 1 thing. Newcastle matters but Sydney is a real dislike.
Strange as I work with a few Sydney fans (lots more turned to Wanderers obviously) and we are good mates but for 90 minutes..... I hate the bastards
A majority of Victory fans are thugs. Whenever the Heart v Victory derbies large groups either baited or attacked small groups of Heart fans (they never went after big groups like Yarraside). Lots of them proudly displayed t-shirts of Kevin Muscat's disgusting last act as a professional player. The Victory fans are probably more mature in New South Wales but they are bullying thugs in Melbourne.The Newcastle hate has waned for sure. I've skipped the away trip a few times and when we've gone up there we've either been far above them or both irrelevant.
I've never bought into the Sydney hate.
For a start, I live down here and have far too many SFC supporting friends.
For seconds, in my work I deal a lot with the club and the people are frankly pretty good people.
Arnie, Clarky and JC, plus Simon and Anderson? Yeah, not a good look, but to me it's not what I first think of when I think of the club.
Surprising fact? Terry McFlynn is actually a top bloke. Their Hutcho, without a doubt.
Do I want them all to be riven with desperation and disappointment on Saturday night? Like you wouldn't believe! I just don't hate them.
TBH, I think I find WSW far more irksome. They're like Victory fans, but without having done ten years of growing up.

Matty Simon has really lit the fuse for an interesting game [tomorrow night]. "All good to entertain but Central coast people want to win. If you want entertainment then you can go to Erina Fair or the Crowne Plaza"
Matty has also taken swipe at club for their treatment of him.
